serenissimaThings I need to take care of:
Find the DVD I borrowed from my cousin so he can return it to Netflix. It's not on top of the Playstation where I left it, so it may be anywhere in the living room. Thus, finding it may mean I need to...
Clean the living room. There are a few items of clean laundry on the couch that need to be folded and put away, but of more concern are the piles of paper on the tables. I think these are largely junk mail.
Wash the dishes. The sink has been full of dirty dishes since Wednesday night, and my kitchen smells. Again. I should also wash the dishtowels.
Get groceries. I'm out of milk, a basic necessity without which I find it hard to eat breakfast.
Enter my backlog of receipts into Quicken. I like to know exactly where my money goes, and normally I'm a little compulsive about logging my purchases. However, I stopped last fall when my cousin's computer crashed, so instead I have six or seven month's worth of receipts.
Before I can enter the purchases, I need to transfer the data from my Zip disk to either my old or new computer. If it's to the old, I need to install the current version of Quicken, because on my cousin's computer I was using a newer version and my old computer won't read the data file. If it's to the new, I need to burn the stuff on Zip to CD, because the new computer doesn't have a Zip drive, although it does have Quicken 2004 pre-loaded. The latter is the better option, since there's other stuff I want to transfer besides Quicken data, and that way I won't need a purchased in-the-box edition.
I should probably also move the modem from the old computer to the new.
These three go together:
Go get my mats from Michael's store and frame my embroidered cushion covers.
Read how to operate my electric drill, and use it to attach wire to the back of the painting I bought.
Hang said artwork on the walls.
These three go together:
