Weekend To-Do

Finally have a day to get some stuff done around the house. I'm half-way following the AT Fall Cure, and have pretty much no money so most of my work is going to be in the way of cleaning and getting rid of junk. Was going to go to the Obama rally but couldn't face the crowds...I'm sure it will be amazing though! Really excited that now it's fall weather and I can take the A/Cs out of the windows (they are so ugly), but not worry about the furnace just yet. And best of all, I can cook and bake to my hearts content without sweating buckets. Hooray!

On the list for this weekend (it's quite industrious, we'll see how reality pans out):

1. Vacuum, sweep, mop all my floors, and baseboards (whoa that means moving furniture).
2. Cleaning glass on windows, and dusting/scrubbing windowsills.
3. Laundry - as many loads as my dwindling stash of quarters will allow.
4. Dishes - never seem to catch up.
5. Bake the latest incarnation of no-knead bread.
6. Make something for the week, like soup, mac 'n cheese, or quiche.
7. Go through my paperwork piles and put everything away.
8. Drop off some old clothes at Goodwill.
9. Take both ginormous AC units out of the windows, clean them, and store in basement.
10. Take other junk down to storage (cleaning that out, though not so bad right now, will probably need to wait till another day).

Well, I've put it all out there, now I better get moving. It's almost noon and all I've accomplished is drinking several cups of coffee. :)

I read that 100,000 people were at the rally, that makes me pretty glad I skipped it. I would have loved to see Obama, but would have HATED the crowd. Plus I just woke up, yay for sleeping all day!

I am in shock at how many people were there. And yes, sleeping was probably a better idea for getting over a migraine than being in that crowd. I watched a bit online, it was pretty cool.

I'm also getting a lot of cleaning done so I'm sure I will WISH I had slept all day instead, I'm gonna be so tired!
