Starting today I am on vacation for the next week. I was hoping we’d be able to take a quick family trip somewhere but it is not in the cards. So instead I plan on working on the gazillion and one things that I need to get done around the house and elsewhere.
I need several lists probably, broken down by catagory like PTO or house. Here are just some of the things I hope to get accomplished by the Monday after Thanksgiving. Keep in mind Wednesday will be “getting ready for Thanksgiving” madness and Thursday is the Event of course.
get dog nails trimmed- make copies of Winter Grams for PTO, assemble and ready for distribution the Monday after Thanksgiving
meet with Otis Spunkmeyer rep (today at 1pm at Starbucks) to discuss spring fundraiser- clean kitchen before we die of salmonella or some horrible type disease
- rent carpet cleaning machine for the tiny bit of carpet left in the house
- clean carpet
put up the new smoke alarms I boughtÂ- help Dad get iTunes set up and show him how to synch iPhone, apps, etc
- figure out why voicemail is taking so long to show up & why it keeps asking for password when I don’t have one
- take photos and post stuff on eBay
- inventory, take photos and post stuff on Etsy
- sew custom order of 3 puzzle balls by the end of next week
write down stuff to be donated (for tax purposes) & drop offpick up thyroid prescription- make appointment for annual well woman exam
- schedule dentist appointment
- complete annual enrollment in health benefits
- finish demo in Charlie’s bathroom
- clean up the entire house
- send photos and update letter to adoption agency
- preschedule some blog posts and finish some drafts

OMG your list is exhausting. I kind of like my one day off – one smaller list thing. A whole week would kill me. Or cause me to not get out of bed after day 2, heh.
Remember I have next week and the week of Dec 4th to get stuff done. Some of these are things that can be done at any old time. I just need to have it written down somewhere or I’ll forget about it. And not everything is on the list either.
