To Do List

wendybeth · 03-30-2009, 01:05 AM

We finally got mom's place cleaned out today- huge job, as she was a collector of CRAP that took two trips to Goodwill and three loads to the dump to get rid of. Good lord.

Now, I need to:

Spring clean- no way I'm letting **** accumulate like my mom did.
Finish painting the dining room and office before the Lashpair arrive.

Clean carpets- it was a long and messy winter.

Finish the guest room. We're thinking of calling it the "IASW Suite", as Tori's porcelain dolls are all stashed in there. We'll man it up a bit for the Lashpair, but moving the dolls might be a bigger PITA than I can deal with at the moment. I also enjoy the idea of 'IASW"........

(Oh, and there are some Kinkade prints in there as well- two lithos that used to be worth some serious change. None of DL, but oh well.....).

Have a lot of fun when Rob and Greg get here.

Well done, wendybeth. Feels good?

My list:

Price out Amtrak w/ sleeper from SF to Chicago, via Santa Fe

Take our two cats to the vet for routine maintenance

Work on Chpt. 2 of current project.

Replenish roll of quarters for car. (Illinois is nothing but toll roads. Chicago and back is almost $10 in tolls.)

Get that stupid old white architect's table out of the study and back to the porch where it belongs.

Iron ... like that's gonna happen.

Have a good and productive day, all!

Iron? What's that? Is that that medieval torture device they used to chain women to before Downy Wrinkle Releaser was invented?

(Or one could always toss a wet towel into the dryer with a load of wrinkly clothes and a few minutes later... freshly steamed clothes! Provided, of course, that you remove them immediately)

The LashPair are causing LOTS of redecorating to happen. They should visit more often!

I have to:

Clean out my closet, (Which will take a year to do,)

Go through my drawers, (I can't even pull it out without it getting stuck or popping out,)

And last, but not least: help finish painting the wall with Mom, (which won't take long, since we only have a wall and an half to do.)

And yeah, Mom's mother had tons of junk and crap. It's a wonder how she lived up 'till now. Took seven hours to do a small apartment filled with, well, crap. We're still sore today from all that lifting and going up and down the stairs. It didn't help that it snowed and then rained, (which I was happy about while everyone was moody about it, *Rolls eyes* ) and when we were done, the sky was blue. Figures!
