Saturday is a Special Day

It's the only day I have to get stuff done. Today I felt like I was moving about as fast as a snail. It's days like these that make me miss not feeling like an invalid because I can't pick anything up that weighs more than 20 lbs, and I can't bend over to pick up stuff off the floor, and I'm just not balanced quite right. To make myself feel better, and maybe brag a little bit about how much I was actually able to accomplish, I'm going to post all the things I did today.

Sleep in until 10
Get dressed
Let Monkey in
Discover what she chewed up yesterday:
- a $300 computer part (our cost)
- a book I was borrowing from a friend
- a tube of mascara I was going to sell to my sister-in-law
- a dixie cup
Scold Monkey even though I know she has no clue why
Call Dave to tell him the bad news
Make breakfast
Discover that we're out of milk
Eat breakfast
Switch laundry to dryer/hang up
Start load of towels
Go to Petco with Monkey to buy a new rope toy for $20
(hope that the mew rope toy will keep her from chewing our things as much)
Get Monkey's nails cut at Petco for $10
Return 3 maternity shirts to Target for $30
Switch towels to dryer
Set up music playlist for doing house chores

Sprinkle bathtub with Comet (...it makes your teeth turn green...)
Arrange flowers from birthday in vase
Scrub tub, sprinkle again with Comet (...it tastes like gasoline...)
Start going through junk in dining room
Take Dave's cast-off socks to John
Scrub tub again with pre-soaked Comet (...it makes you vomit...)

Repair hose
Remove moldy items from fridge
Put away groceries
