Accomplishments Du Jour (or rather du Weekend)

Jan 10, 2010 23:47

* Got rid of the following items:
* 19" CRT TV - jeriendhal, for the kids
* Papasan - to razorbagel
* 32" CRT TV - Good Will
* Computer Desk, old printer, printer stand, miscellaneous crap - Good Will
* Huge bin of crap that's been sitting in boxes for years - Good Will
* Forgot to put the computer speakers and miscellaneus monitor stuff into the good will bag; they'll go later

* Cleaned out the spare room closet; most went to charity, some went to trash. Hope they collect the trash!

* Went to Ikea and bought a new entryway shoe-seat thing, glass doors for two bookcases, and top extension for one bookcase (as a test).

* Assembled shoe seat. Fits perfectly. 8th Doctor would approve and do a happy dance.

* Bought an iPod Touch (just the little one). Loaded it up with my audio books, and listened to those while assembling furniture. Iris Wyldthyme, I LOL'd.

* Bought a new 32" tv for the bedroom. Hooked it up. Moved the 26" with DVD player to the library (which doesn't have FIOS in it) so I can watch DVDs when I'm working out.

* Moved black wire rack to library to hold TV; will probably rethink that too, as I may buy some more bookcases and glass doors, and simply display all my crap nicely in there. If so I'll use a low bookcase for the TV stand.

* Removed one set of half-height solid doors and replaced with full-size glass doors. Reorganized that shelving unit a bit.

* Shopping! Picked up some new T-shirts and workout shorts, cheap alarm clock for library. Did some other shopping, but failed to find a nice piece of fish for dinner today and ended up just eating some Ramen while at the Lotte.

* Lugged all my donations downstairs and loaded up by myself -- the 32" TV was a beast, but I managed it alone without hurting myself (using my recently rediscovered upper body strength).

* Attended my grandmother's winter get-together; helped out with setup and cleanup a bit.

* Went furniture shopping and had a light dinner with John, then hung out a bit at his house until Brian came home, then hung out a bit longer before coming home myself.

...and of course I worked out both days. My pants fit slightly looser, but still a ways to go.

productivity, house, family, my so-called social life, busy, fat bastard
