Thursday, Sept 20, 2012 – There’s a 430 AM now?!!

There’s a 430 AM now?!!
We found out there is because that’s when we had to get up this morning.  Today and tomorrow she goes in at 6am.  Blah.
She has reason to believe she will start her real schedule (2p-10p, 4 on, 2 off) on Saturday.  Then, the next chapter of our life begins for real.

As Wesley was watching balloons this morning, he called to me in the cafe room “Uh, Daisopher?” – I went and looked and there’s a dead mouse on the living room floor!!  Presumably the work of Christmas Kitty.

I have now acquired all 44 episodes of Freddy’s Nightmares and they’re on the PS3, ready for Halloween month :)

I dramatically changed the coffee bar today…

It makes a lot more sense now and even looks a lot better if you ask me.  After very little sleep, a protein shake, and a shot of espresso, I found myself very motivated and kinda’ obsessive.  I actually had it done before Wesley got up for school!
I also got caught up on laundry and detail cleaned both bathrooms.  Everything was done when she got home at 2.  A very productive day.
While I worked, I listened to The Hollywood Saloon podcast (a long-time favorite of mine) episode about Thor, which we recently watched.  (Even though it’s not my kind of movie – see my ‘films I can’t live without’ sidebar.)  They said a lot of what I thought about it.

Found out (after I paid for the full version, natch) that gTasks fails to repeat recurring to-do’s properly so I’ve switched to GTO, which I’d tried before but didn’t like as much.  But, it does recurring tasks correctly so, meh.  I live by my Pure Calendar widget so I have to use a to-do app that it supports.
I created many household tasks and set repeats for varying intervals so, it should present me with my house keeping list every morning rather than me sitting down in the morning and making my list for the day, which is the way I’ve done it for years.  If the usual maintenance stuff can just pop up on my day planner automagically, I can just do what it says and add any one-off tasks as needed.  Less to think about first thing in the morning that way :P

After dinner, we had a little time to kill before bed (didn’t go to home fellowship – 8pm bedtime tonight) so we watched some YouTube.  Started with coffee videos but Terra has somehow never seen (or even heard of!) cinnamon challenge videos so I introduced her to them.  We had a half hour or so of riotous laughter before bedtime.

It’s something like ten days until Halloween month starts and twenty-ish until Balloon Fiesta..
