Welcome to the Clutter Patrol, formerly CLUTTERBUSTERS thread. We are a daily thread, Monday thru Friday, and we have a combined weekend edition Saturday and Sunday. We welcome new members and are a friendly, helpful and supportive group.
Our purpose is for support and sharing of tips and strategies in dealing with weight and clutter issues in our lives. Many feel that the two are often tied together. So, we will lend a caring ear, and hopefully give and learn tips to help all of us.
We want to remove at least 5 items or spend at least 15 minutes clutter busting today!
Remember, it didn't pile up in one day so it isn't going away in a day either. One organizer says: you don't have to stop everything to get organized, you just have to start somewhere.

Good morning,
Woke up to the sound of rain tapping on my window. That and a nice cool breeze, I just didn’t want to get out of bed. We really need that rain.
Was talking to new car manager at work yesterday, just curious about when we will see more cars on the lot. There are some on the way, just not many. He doesn’t think we’ll get back to normal until late September or so. We are getting a number of used cars almost every day, that will help keep us busy.
Going out with other cashier after work today for dinner and a couple of beers. That should be fun. I’m sure we’ll spend some time talking about coworker that no one likes.
Dottie - you are sure getting a lot done. I like days when I have a lot of energy and get things accomplished.
Ruth - I know there are a lot of exercises that you can do in bed for both your knee and back. YouTube is a great resource. Look up chair exercises too, ti strengtheni you knees. Enjoy the GM election.
Waving hi to Martha.
Have a great day.

Joyce, wow on not getting enough cars in till September. I’m still amazed when I go to a store and there are certain things not available. I guess we didn’t realize how good we had it. Have fun going out with the other cashier, always nice to go out with friends. Some days I have no energy and some days I have more, so I try to accomplish a lot on those days.
Martha, sounds like yesterday was a hectic day at work, hope today goes better for you.
Ruth, I agree with Joyce about looking into some chair exercises. I have one DVD that has some chair exercises on it. I change up some of the exercises so that I get a little more work out in but when I first started doing the DVD I did most of the exercises from a chair.
I had a doctor appointment this morning. When I saw the GI doctor about a month ago he told me about a research study that his practice is participating in. It is with Cologard. I didn’t realize that his practice did research. Bill sees him and I have met him and I liked him much better than the other GI doctor I went to. Back to the research study, I need to do a Cologard sample and have a colonoscopy, which is why I went to the doctor in the first place. My last colonoscopy was in 2010, it was clear. I am not having any problems so this is just a screening colonoscopy. After my colonoscopy I will be paid $300. So for going for the initial appointment today I was paid $200 and will get another $75 when I send in the Cologard kit. I didn’t know anything about the study before I went to the doctor but figured since I needed the colonoscopy I might as well participate in it. They put the money on a master card debit card. Our weather isn’t going to be the greatest for the weekend, rain starts tonight and they expect us to get at least an inch. We really need the rain, so I’m not complaining about that. Tomorrow the high will be in the 50s, not swimming weather, that is for sure. It will be nice just to have the group at the lake house, the kids are into card games so we can do some of that tomorrow and Sunday.

Good late evening. Watching our game 7 playoff game and it’s not going well.
Dottie, I participated in a study for the “at home” colon tests a few years ago. I got $100 I think. I had to test 3 of the different kits they send. I’ve been doing those regularly now for the past 3 years I think. I HATE the prep for regular colonoscopies so these are much better. Easy and done!!!
I’m going to check out videos for sure for exercises.
Was very happy to get 2 black garbage bags of stuff and a box of books gone today with a charity pickup.
Bought groceries for the weekend. Nice to have meal planning done! And I have a big pitcher of sun tea for drinks!
ok, off to bed once the game is done! More tomorrow! Have a wonderful weekend all.
