reprise of the Day of Many Tasks
May. 2nd, 2019 06:28 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Stuff done so far:
-called Mrs. M to give her a heads-up about Cat's lemon tree
-moved carrots, onion, and overwintered peppers outside
-daily walk and photograph of Cascadilla Creek
-a VERY FULL DAY at work, in which I defeated ALL THE PAPERWORK
-finally read the past two issues of the local free weekly paper I'd been saving
(Tangent about work: so it turns out that New Hire did not, in fact, work out and has been let go. :( This means we're going to be closed on Saturday, since for obvious reasons (*cough* Susan's visit *cough*) I will not be in the office. Mom Boss and Aunt Boss are trying to find a replacement as soon as possible, but I may get some overtime and/or rearranged hours for the rest of May. We'll see how it goes.)
Stuff that still needs doing:
-VACUUM
-finish tidying flat surfaces
-text or call Susan to work out Friday details
-put away the air-dried laundry
-trim the lilacs in preparation for my air conditioner, which I forgot to do last week *headdesk*
-dinner
I could also swing by the library on my way home to pick up a book that came in today, but my hold request is good through May 11 and honestly I think it makes more logistical sense to sit on that until Tuesday or Wednesday, since I won't have an excess of reading time over the next few days and I have three other library books I need to finish first. *wry*

ETA, 8:30pm
Stuff done:
-was accosted by my neighbors' cat when I arrived home and spent 5-10 minutes letting her lounge on my shoulder and receive the petting that is her rightful due :)
-vacuumed apartment \o/
-collected trash and took it out to the bin
-dumped kitchen compost into outdoor compost bin
-trimmed lilacs
-texted Susan, but she hasn't texted me back yet
Still needs doing:
-dinner (in progress, why does cooking take time?)
-finish tidying flat surfaces
-put away air-dried laundry
-maybe pull out the air mattress and linens so I don't have to do that tomorrow?
-GO TO BED AND GET SOME SLEEP
