Right. I've gotten dressed, taken meds, cleaned the toilet and bathroom sink, started laundry, put the kettle on, and now I will fold more clothes while watching The Walking Dead. Then I will walk my rent check and dog to my landlady, fix and eat some lunch, and pay bills. Then work stuff, I think. Rewards will be buying my plane ticket, making a hotel reservation, and the tea.

If anyone wants to play the productivity game on email, that'd be cool, too.

A setback for the pro-cilanto-istas

I read that yesterday and immediately thought of the Buffistas! And also checked my pantry, because half of the stuff in there is from TJs.

Wow! That is productivity, smonster. I've emptied a few boxes in the kitchen. A place for everything and everything in its place, still a long way off.

I will count watching Sunday Morning with DH as productive because we don't get to do that much together that is relaxing with all the busy. And I took my vitamins! That one gets skipped too often too.

I hope they still sing together.

The parentals are too cute for words. One or the other will say something and the other will sing a few bars of some tune. Marlin will comment on the sky and she will sing Stormy Weather. She asks if he would like tea and he will respond with a chorus of Tea for Two. I think Mom was 67 when they got married. 22 years later and still with the holding hands and being adorable.

And yet of course my sibs don't think it will last. Families!

Aw, Laura, that's lovely.

Have put away t-shirts and socks, purged a few unneeded clothes, emptied the bottom of the dishwasher. Back to folding and tv. And tea.

I just read the recall notice at work and need to do a thorough combing of fridge and pantry when i get home, for i heart both cilantro and TJ products.

i heart both cilantro and TJ products.

I'm just lucky I haven't been to TJs lately.

I need a productivity infusion. The only thing I really MUST do today is get some editing done that I brought home from work. But following close behind in the category of not-technically-MUST-but-my-life-would-be-happier-if-I-did-it-now is: buy new jeans (my old pair, well-worn and well-loved, decided to fray and rip along the inseam in my ladyparts area), get groceries, and clean off top of dresser. If there's a Staples close by (which I think there isn't) I need to pick up a couple cheap thumb drives, but I can always get those tomorrow, since there's a Staples right around the corner from my office.

Oh! Two more musts: watch the last episode of Sherlock and the new Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror tonight.

I'm being productive tomorrow. You can have all my productivity from today, Teppy.

Thanks, Laga! I was pretty productive yesterday (baked apple crisp, washed dishes, paid my bills, went to the pharmacy, and MEGA-cleaned the bathroom [for me, this means "scrubbed floor on hands and knees instead of using the Swiffer wetjet," and let me tell you, the floor REALLY needed a good scrubbing]).

And being productive yesterday means I don't feel like doing anything today. But I do need those new jeans.

I've gone grocery shopping. I forgot to buy Cheerios, though. I still need to deal with the pile of mail by my front door. (Bad thing about having a mail slot is that there's no real incentive to go through the mail each day. When I had a mailbox, I knew that it would get full if I didn't empty it.)
