Errand Day

All things considered, it's been a pretty good day for me. I took the dogs for the long route this morning, then cleaned out the garage and loaded up the car and took the items to Goodwill, totaling 4 large boxes and a paper bag full of almost new t-shirts I rarely wore because my shoulders were slightly too big for them - damn big shoulders relative to my body! Following that, I stopped off at the nursery and got a refund for an item I was charged for, but did not buy. I was pleased the woman refunded my money because I made the purchase 2 weeks ago and how do you prove you never bought something? I noticed I did kind of hold out my empty hands when describing that I didn't buy it. Finally, I returned movies to Blockbuster, bought Eddie some new dog food, and stopped off at the local Starbucks to have shaken iced tea lemonade while doing a crossword. Lovely.

My goal is to get the garage organized today. Or at least, more organized so I know what items I'll need to buy to complete the organization process.

The neighbors are actually making an effort to let all the kids who come over know not to park in front of the mailboxes. This is really all I can ask, so I am happy. I think it's mostly because they are expecting a football scholarship letter for one of the boys going into college, but hey, I'll take what I can get.

While D is out of town all week, I'm doing my very best not to watch any of the shows currently being TiVo'd. So far, I've done fairly well and have only watched Fear Factor, which is just something I watch to fill time, rather than because I must see the next episode.

I suppose that's about it. I should get to cleaning the garage. Yipee!
