I was energized today

I meant to join a Zoom exercise class, but couldn't get on. That's okay, I did 2 sessions earlier in the week. After I missed the class, I started in on my chores, only had dishes and vacuuming on the list. I ended up dusting a showcase, using the crevice tool in the hall, bath, kitchen, dining and living rooms. Then vacuumed, then vacuumed my bedroom. I went down the basement and brought up an old bookcase and cleaned it up, stuck it in my closet and put my shoes on it. Then I ordered a drop-off from Aldi, did the dishes and got my kitchen ready for sanitizing and repackaging the groceries, did that, did 2 loads of laundry, made my dinner (chicken, topped with bacon, cheddar, ranch, avocado and stir-fried vegs on the side) and also cut up and packed a chicken breast for my cat. She'll get about 1 tbs daily, long-time habit) cleaned and sanitized the kitchen, paid some bills online, took water and seeds out for the critters, and got all the laundry folded and put away. I did the litter boxes too. I think I am done for the night and I hope I'm not this energetic tomorrow. I don't even have company coming!

I forgot. I also washed my old, long-haired messy cat. And trimmed a little to avoid the bath again for a month or so. Then I had to sanitize my bathroom. lol
