To Do

With Thanksgiving coming up, my to do lists have gotten quite a bit larger than normal. Add to that the fact that I don't have a job, and the lists seem to get even bigger to account for the greater amount of time I supposedly have. (Though looking for a job can take just as long as having a job, as I'm sure we all know.)

I have trouble keeping track of my lists, so here's what I should be doing today:

Class/homework
Check work
Put together the bathroom cabinet
Hang the mirror - It only took me drilling four holes for what should have been a two-hole job. At least it's done...
Hang the toothbrush holder - Our current toothbrushes don't actually fit in the holder. It's funny.
Check on the turkey thawing - Should be done by Thanksgiving without a problem
Check on the leg of lamb thawing - Is done and ready for tomorrow's dinner
Make a grocery list of what we still need to buy - If there's more, I've forgotten it. Thankfully there's still tomorrow to buy stuff if I really have forgotten anything.
Check the salt level in the softener
Take out the garbage in the kitchen and any bathroom remodel garbage - Took out what I could, but the trash is now completely full. Thankfully tomorrow is garbage day.
Look for jobs / apply / repeat - Okay, technically an ongoing battle and I shouldn't ever really cross it off until I get a job, but I've already applied to two jobs today, and I have so much other stuff done I'm counting this as finished for now.
Wash all the dog bowls
Wash the blankets from the living room
Return items to the library - get some movies to watch - Didn't get any movies because we have Hulu to watch.
Get Groceries
Make dinner
Buy more salt for the softener
Add salt to softener
Change the filter on the shower head
a) Buy a new filter for shower head
Tidy up the kitchen/house
Fold blankets
Make a fire and use the cleaner log

Red items are items that I realized I cannot possibly do at the moment, and have added to do items under them to make it possible.

Work?

After months of little to no work, I log into the queue tonight on a whim to find almost 1,000 records that need to be done. I started working, checked the queue to see how much is getting done, and it seems as though nobody else is on.

I really hope this influx of records plus a lack of other contractors remains constant. I've complained in the past about my job, but you can't beat working from the comfort of home, on the couch, curled up in a blanket with the dogs sleeping next to you.

That and I don't want to have to go get another job, as Maria's been suggesting I do. I haven't had to go to work in over three years; I'm not sure I could handle it!

1) LJ Idol voting has begun. If you liked my "Good morning Brain" thingy I wrote, then please vote for me. I'm in the top 100 out of 193, and it'd be cool if I made it into the top 50%.

2) Were you aware that there's a 6 AM on the weekend? I had no idea. Weird, huh?

3) Lots to do today for that slim hope of getting Rock Band or at least a second guitar controller for Guitar Hero. Hopefully we can finish the list this morning. I'm hopeful, but realistic: I have almost zero energy to do this. Maybe three cups of coffee will help?
