103

That is the number of Christmas Ornaments that are complete. The paints are put away and the dining room table has been cleared off.  The ornaments are in three boxes awaiting Christmas bags or boxes of their own...

It has been rainy the past two days, yesterday morning I could not see how my day would progress as it was a "me day"  so I did some laundry, scrubbed the Furnace/Laundry room floor and continued on into the kitchen.  I took apart the vacuum cleaner and cleaned it up real good...my vacuum not Far Guys robot vacuum.  I worked on some bits and pieces for stage two of the ornaments.  The sun peaked out for a bit and Far Guy was able to buff up the last few of stage one...I put the last coat of sealer on them and at 9 PM last night I was finished with the 2019 Ornament Project.  Yeah us!! 

I even found time to transcribe my knit sock pattern in the afternoon and have a 20 minute nap.
The sock pattern is tucked into a page protector with extra sticky notes so I can easily keep track of which row I am on.  Yeah me!  Hopefully I didn't make any mistakes or typos!  ( I still have two pair of socks on needles)

Liatris  more than likely the Floristan White one.

It is a pleasure to find your blog each morning, sometimes the best part of my day. You are an impressive woman.

Good morning! Wow, you have gotten so much accomplished! I do love liatris, I have many purple ones that are keeping the bees happy right now.
I have to get my 'things' organized and set up too for winter. It seems too early to think about all that needs to get done, but it is never too early.
Thank you for being here each morning!

Wow, you really are ambitious! Glad you are able to finish off some projects. Today for me is a take a walk while it is still cool out. And then when the lawn has dried out give it a mowing. Nap time comes in the afternoon. Gee you would think I am a Senior Citizen or something (I am).

Congratulations on finishing your Christmas projects already. I am super impressed. Hope FG is feeling better. Fingers crossed that a lung shows up soon for him.

Love that white liatris. So hard to find the white bulbs to buy.

Tired Teacher said...

Finishing the ornaments is exciting. Now you can relax a bit until the next big project presents itself.

Miss Merry said...

Maebeme said...

Wow, that was quite the project....103 ornaments! I am suitably impressed.
Your "me" day was quite productive as well.

Rita said...

Wow! You finished the ornaments already!! Congrats!
You got a lot done. Not what I'd call a me day, though. LOL! ;)
Not sure if I've ever seen those flowers before. Pretty. :)

Leah said...

That is great - one less thing you have to worry about :) and you pretty much celebrated Christmas in July!!

Terry and Linda said...

YAY! YOU!!!!

Bonnie said...

Wow! Finished already! Congratulations, you are really on top of things! How do you get so much done in one day? I am in awe.

Red said...

You must be fast to get all this in in one day.

Betsy said...

My gooness you got a lot done! You put me to shame. I'm still not feeling "up to snuff" so I've been fairly lazy. I'm impressed you got all of the ornaments done already. Almost Christmas in July! :-) . Wishing you and Far Guy a wonderful day.
Blessings,
Betsy

Me too!

My liatris is all spent now and waiting for me to trim it back. I am glad to see the spelling as it is one I can not remember. I guess it is spelled like it sounds. I dug a day lily today for me and my daughter-in-law. We do have that in common.

I don't think I've ever seen anybody accomplish as much as you do, in a day! You are amazing. Now all your ornaments are done. YEA for you two. What will be your next project to keep busy at? I am tired just hearing about all you did. You guys are awesome!

Linda Reeder said...

I'm not sure what you mean by a "me day" but you seem to have done everything but spend time on yourself. What does a "work day" look like around there?

Granny Marigold said...

You sure get a lot done, especially if you don't have to go to any appointments or such. 103 ornaments, that is impressive!!

Victoria Zigler said...

Great you had such a productive day. Congratulations on being done with the ornaments.

That's the truth!

103 just boggles the mind! I'm glad it was ornaments you were talking about. For a minute, I saw that title and wondered if you were talking about the temperature. That would never do for Minnesota!
