I work at home a couple of days a week, thankfully, and it really saves commute time, money and mileage. A lot of people are also a lot less hesitant to bother you at home, so I get much more work done! - Anyway, here's what I did on my lunch hour today- yeah, it's not all fun:
1) Made a quick lunch of leftovers and ate in about 10 minutes
2) Took in the recycle bin (it was collected today)
3) Walked the dogs about a mile (took 25 minutes)
4) Put clothes in the dryer (I put them in the wash before I started this morning)
5) Give the dogs snacks /changed their water
AND...
6) Pooper Scooped the Backyard for about 20 minutes!
Let me just say, that I understand why some people pay for this. Regardless, I don't mind doing it, it's just that 1) With LOTS OF FALLEN LEAVES- there's a 90% chance you'll step in something before you see it to pick up (okay, I did. Twice in fact).
2) When you are Color-blind with Greens, Greys, Browns and Reds, like I am- it's very, very difficult to tell the difference between doggie poo, a leaf, dirt, or a pine cone. It's like being in a contest in the "Amazing Race"! :)
