Right, About that To Do List

The progress:

  • Final trip to the old condo to pick up random crappe, including: telephone, lamp, box of books, hanging picture, dead Christmas cactus, vacuum, etc. DONE!
  • Go to Petsmart to pick up a scratching post for Buttercup, she's scratching my brand new bedroom rug. DONE!
  • Change the cat litter. DONE!
  • Meet a lady from Craigslist to give her some boxes and packing paper. DONE!
  • Shower! Zoiks, I'm a lil' stinky. DONE!
  • Unload the diswasher. DONE!
  • Throw a down comforter in the washer. Fail.
  • Bring 2 boxes down to the basement. DONE!
  • Take the trash out. DONE!
  • Find a home for the ironing board. Not done, but I like Anna's idea!
  • Ask the downstairs neighbor who is moving out if she'd like some empty boxes. Not yet. I think I'm saving them for The Boy.
  • Mentally prep for work tomorrow. BOO! Well, it's Monday and I'm working, semi-prepared mentally.
  • Meet the old landlord to give her the keys and get the security deposit back. Whoo hoo, free money to pay the mortgage! (Actually, I think I'll use it to buy my new 32G iPhone 3G(s) phone and put the remainder towards my bedroom furniture that I'm getting next month.) DONE! I met her in the courtyard and can you believe that she didn't even go in to look at the condo? Crazy! She gave me a check for the security deposit without looking at the place. I can't get over it.
I actually didn't do too bad on my list. Of course, it's a never ending cycle of to do lists. Today's list includes:
  • Going to the bank.
  • Working...yes, that. After being off on Thursday and Friday, I'm playing alot of catch up.
  • Prepare for tomorrow's meeting. I have a pretty important meeting tomorrow to prepare for. Lots of documentation to gather and organize. Fortunately, it's not until 3:30 tomorrow, so I can prepare today and then look at everything with fresh eyes in the morning.
  • Take a walk! Always a constant battle to get exercise in. The bonus is that I'll enjoy my new neighborhood walks.
  • UNPACKING. I'd like to finish up the office and get a little more accomplished in the living room which still continues to be the dumping ground.
