Productive Day
So today I went to Home Depot and Lowe's and got quotes on all the things I need to start caring for my own lawn. Lowe's has said they will match Home Depot's financing plan (6 months, no interest, no payments), so I'm planning to buy everything from them except for the shed, which I'll get at Home Depot. The final cost is going to run me just under $1300. So that's 17 months of lawn service at the current price or 10 months at the new price.
Either way, I have a plan, go me!
The guy at HD also showed me Bagster, which is awesome - you buy the bag for $30 and it holds something like 3 tons of junk, and then you call them and they haul it away for $70. Way cheaper than the $300 the junk people wanted to charge me.
Then I came home and found a website for a company that says they'll come get it for free! So I'm trying them first, and then I'll do the bagster thing if that doesn't pan out.
Then I went to the craft store and bought the things I needed to make my brother's christmas present, and came home and ordered the photo developing online for it. And I finished putting together the scrapbook I completed last week.
Now I'm going to pour myself a glass of wine and start on my next project - sorting out my 2005 & 2006 scrapbook stuff - and watch The Black Parade is Dead! on DVD.
