The 10 in 10 challenge: Day 8

Day 8 was not as productive as the weekend, but a few things were finished. My mom actually replaced my dead pansies in the pots on the front porch for me. She had a few extra that weren’t going to end up in her garden, so she brought them over and planted them for me! What an awesome mom, huh?

The only other thing that happened was donating those three random books in the back of my car. I took them into a thrift shop on my way from school to work. Easy peasy.

22 1/2 tasks down in a week! I doubt much will be accomplished in the last two days of this challenge. It’s just too darned hot to do anything outside by the time I’m off work, and we don’t have the finances to do most of the rest of everything. The only thing I can really do is replace the vanity hardware and finish the gallery wall with scrapbook paper. We will see how thing go!
