My two favorite things in the world. 😆 After indulging in a stitching day all day on Saturday, I spent Sunday doing a pile of bills and an even bigger pile of laundry.
First was putting away approximately 4 baskets or more of clean laundry that’s been sitting around in various places anywhere from 1 week to several months. Yes, you read that correctly. Some of my whites have been sitting on the floor for months. So long that some of it was summer wear. How embarrassing; I can’t believe that I’m even admitting it in public. Anyway, it felt good to have all of those stuff off of the floor and out of the seriously over-stuffed laundry basket. I then started on the dirty clothes and a pile of towels that has been growing and waiting to be laundered for a long time. What can I say? We have quite a stockpile of towels for just two people. 😉
With the sorting and putting away of all of those clothes out of the way and a start made on the small piles of dirty laundry, I then settled down to write out the batch of bills due around the beginning of the month. Bills tend to come in two lumps; one big one for the beginning of the month and a small batch for the middle of the month. I also had the quarterly water bill and the annual county tax bill to write out this time around.
While I was at it, I wrote out the forms to submit my psychiatrist bills for reimbursement from my insurance company. My psychiatrist decided some time ago (prior to my becoming a patient) that she no longer wanted to deal with all of the paperwork associated with accepting various insurance plans. So, the paperwork is instead on me to submit for reimbursement. Not a big deal; I’ve just been putting it off for a while. I hope that I won’t run into any issues, as I would love to get some money back. Don’t get me wrong, my psychiatrist is totally worth the money, but considering I’ve put out more than $700 out of pocket already for 3 visits, it would be nice to get recoup some of those costs, if possible.
I feel pretty accomplished having gotten so many less than exciting tasks out of the way and I was even able to fit some stitching in at night. 😀
It is so good to hear that you are doing a lot better! My laundry piles up like nobody’s business, so don’t be thinking I’m judging you at all LOL! It feels good to get the house all clean so you can stitch and relax doesn’t it 😀
I actually love the doing laundry process, but like you, I’m not so much for the putting it away.
Laundry AND bills? Good grief! I’m forever thankful to Niek for doing the bills. They give me the crawling shudders!
Does that sound like a good sign or what?! 🙂
I’m with you – I dislike laundry as well. All house work, for that matter.
You got a lot done! I had a basket of laundry sitting near my sofa for almost two weeks. Normally, I fold and put away right away but didn’t feel like doing this last load. Then my Dad went in the hospital and that shot another week. Good for you getting it done!
I bet it feels good to get so much accomplished! Good for you for dealing with the not so fun tasks, and still making time for stitching.
