Week 1: The Truth
Done:
- Dust, Sweep, Vacuum, Mop
- Flowers: One small bunch of daffodyls, which wilted before they fully opened.
- Removed: One sizable box of Goodwill stuff, including a stash of clothes that had been hiding out since Wardrobe Therapy. Also some trash and recyclables.
- Repair: patched one drywall hole.
- Repair: straightened all the switch plates and outlet covers. Hi, Dad.
- Repair: straightened tub overflow plate.
- Box: I actually resolved two boxes this week - but they were easy ones. Books and papers that should have gone to the office months ago. Still, they're not here anymore.
Budget Remaining: 95%
Highlights:- Having my friends J & A (and baby T minus three weeks) over for dinner on Friday in an act of Cure-inversion.
- Lexi, the Drama Queen of Siam, getting her face stuck in an empty 3-ounce Ben & Jerry's carton (Cookie Dough, for the record).
- Finally getting the right size boots from Eddie Bauer - just in time to go outside without an overcoat.

Sounds like a wonderfully productive week.

ReplyDeleteYou get brownie points for the whole thing! (including the boots, which will come in very handy next year, and you'll have them, and won't have to hunt all over the stores for them then.)
