So, here’s an update on my to do list:

Bake cookies, getting there, butter is softening

Bake dessert for Super Bowl Sunday to take to my brother’s house

Cry about my laptop (see post below) we haven’t turned it off since Neal got it to reboot, so I’m still using it. Good news, Neal is ordering a part that might fix it. Cross your fingers!

Pick up zillions of cat toys lying around the house

Take pictures of random crap to blog about

Vacuum

Cry about my laptop

Clean kitchen and bathrooms

Put away clothes

Run to the grocery store or Sam’s Club

And…. cry about my laptop

OK, can I just tell you, that I actually CLEANED THE BASEBOARDS in my kitchen. Seriously. Me, the person who never cleans. I was just in a really clean-y mood. It was weird. Kind of an out of body experience. Vacuumed the kitchen floor, mopped it, cleaned the baseboards, scrubbed mysterious stains off of walls and floor, bleached sink. Whew!

Neal is not home. He went to his parents’ house to help them with their kitchen renovation. I always seem more productive when I’m home by myself. I also get to make whatever I want for lunch, which today was fettucine alfredo!

I’m still working on finding a great recipe. This was OK, but I’m still on the hunt.

So, let’s hope this productive/cleaning mood keeps up! I’m taking a break now while my butter comes to room temperature for my cookies.

I’m avoiding going outside. Because it’s cold. Still.

Brrrrr…..
