My Friday is full, may I be excused?
I have a mission today, one that has been going on a few days, actually.
Last fall when we put Mike's inflatable pool away, I took off the plugs that hold in the air, put them in a zip-lock, and put them all away in a Good Safe Place.
Yeah.
So I have been trying to let that location float to the top of my brain. So far, nada, although I am making large strides in some much needed de-cluttering of the tool area in the laundry room.
I'm doing tasks like that in between some email and LJ catch-up, but in a few moments here I am going to jump to one I am MADLY EXCITED about.
As you may know, I have trouble with PuffLeg Syndrome (not to mention FlatButt Disease) because I spend so much of my day here in front of the computer...and a lot of that is my actual paying work! Honest!
Caro is going to be getting a modest kickback for her many unused sick days, and one of the things we thought we might do is some upgrades of vital equipment. So she is getting a new monitor, and I am going to be living my dream of HAVING A LAPTOP!
It came today, and it is SO SHINY. It's an HP Pavilion with a ginormous screen! For under $600 with shipping! Now if I can work out how to add wireless to our current DSL (or something like it) I can sit in my comfy bed with the memory foam topper, leaning on a giant stack of fish pillows, putting books up for sale and possibly also writing something I can sell for actual money. And my feet will stop swelling up so much and I will be able to do more exercising so I will feel healthier all over and the Dems will sweep in the November elections and we will all be amused, content and beloved forever!
In closing, one of the actually done projects from last month! This is Mike and Climber sitting on the bench I make and helped Mike paint. (Caro helped too by finding the pillow at a yard sale!)
Yeah, those dead branches need to be pruned out. Soon as I find the electric chainsaw, which I think is in the basement....
