I did not finish the closet o' doom on onerous task day. I did get my bathroom sink and vanity cleaned and the toilet scrubbed yesterday, unpacked and got rid of a box, and found places to put the contents.
Today I went through the shelves and moved things to closet storage--accessible but out of sight, while displaying some newly-unpacked things. I polished silver pieces, wrapped them in tarnish-retardent to store until they're wanted again, and culled some vid files on the desktop hard drive. Tomorrow I'll go through a few more boxes hoping to find the brass clips so we can hang the wooden and glass shelves in the breakfront, so I can finish unpacking the dining room and overflow kitchen stuff.
I'm checking Craigslist for round or square dining tables, and comfy dining chairs, and if I find some we may go take a look tomorrow or Sunday. And I need to work on a writing project whenever there's time.
I've got about eight million things I could go to tomorrow night: DADT talk at JHU, bar donating tips to the Wounded Warriors project where neighbor's boyfriend is playing or launch party for Hollaback Bmore, who totally know who Shir is!
Market is on, and then there's a craft fair and I desperately need to clean house and buy some scrap in banistery shapes to practice sanding and normal shopping and and and.
AND I need to seriously declutter/get the file cabinet out of this room/emission inspection/clean closet/go through shoes.... Efn.
Liese, you were a serious Onerous Task Ninja Master.
That's good because I was a total laze machine the day before.
I finished the re-reconciliations, the noodles, and the, the, something else. But I did not manage the letters (no creative spark) or the attic panel (forgot to charge the screwdriver in time) so those will have to wait until tomorrow. I can still do some media sort stuff, and I have the laundry to finish, which means I have Task Of Doom left tonight. And I need to rehearse still. But that's it. After that, I am watching tivo'd White Collar and eating eggplant and egg noodles and reading library Terry Pratchett on my Nook. I love my Nook.
My new passport arrived yesterday. My old passport arrived today, along with a Valentine's Day card from my mom and my new Fitbit tracker.
I'm exhausted and starving, and I want my groceries to arrive so I can go to bed.
I think a dremel would be a little too ambitious. I have the sander rec'd by beth's Matt. I just have to work up the nerve to try it. On scrap wood, first.
Oh, and replace my swimsuit. It's getting to critical levels.
One of my goals for this weekend is to use up some CSA veggies, and find new ways to make them.
Who has favorite artichoke or sweet potato recipes?
Matilda update:
She brought me a little gingham goodie bag and asked me to tie it to the end of her purple plastic samurai sword, and now she's walking around the living room saying, "Now I got my bindlestiff! I'm going camping!"
