Erev Yom Kippur
Man, I am not feeling motivated this morning. I think the main problem is that I can't decide whether to put Ms. Amparo (the cleaning lady I want to get a job so I can hire) off until Monday as I wasn't as productive as I wanted to be this week and because I have some stuff that I need to do outside of the house this morning. I know, I'll call Adam & list the pros & cons. No, on second thought, having talked briefly to him, iChat, cos he's in a conference or something.
On the plus side, I could get more housework done this weekend (and I do actually accomplish stuff on weekends sometimes, really!) and I have a bunch of errands I need to get done before David gets home (drop stuff off at St. Vincent deP; run laundry through dryers at the laundromat, pick up prescriptions) and I can't leave to do them before she calls me to set up a time. On the con side, I'd just be delaying the inevitable - I do want her to look at my place and give me as estimate, and whenever she comes, it's not going to be perfect. If it were perfect, I wouldn't be wanting to hire her. Adam says just have her come, and I think I'll probably do that, and just get on with the dish washing and bathroom cleaning and floor mopping I was planning to do today. The stuff for St. VdeP is in my trunk, it can wait if it has to.
So, OK, to work to work:
So, time to break out of my paralysis and get at it. Excelsior!

So, OK, to work to work:
- Sweep downstairs bathroom, laundry room, and library
- Put away, throw away, wash or launder everything swept up
- Mop all of above
- Sweep David's room
- Put away, etc. everything on floor
- Damp mop David's floor
- Put library rug back down
- Put David's rug back down
- Wash more dishes
- Break for lunch
- Regroup
So, time to break out of my paralysis and get at it. Excelsior!
