Stopped by auction, found a HUGE bookshelf with big baskets that would go very nicely in my laundry room and as linen/towel storage.... hope it goes CHEAP tonight! (too bad they didn't have an infrared heater) Checked out a washer...turned my nose up at it because the drum seemed too wobbly.
Called Landlord to ask if he minded me bringing in my own stove?.. (his is an OLD one that I'm afraid of the burners) he volunteered to go pick up the new stove and pull out the old one!! HAPPY DANCE!! (YAY! I don't have to load that puppy on/off a truck!)
Went back to town to pay lady and make arrangements for pick up.
Came back home... and built half my greenhouse while Blade crashed out from being so sick. HAVE POWER TOOLS, WILL BUILD!!! found I'm missing flat brackets...can't get it finished till I have them. ... but DANG those huge glass doors are HEAVY... at least I accomplished getting them braced together to make the central frame. Hopefully, it will look very similar to the picture below when I'm done... (I LOVE building things!! the finished product makes me feel so good!!)
I'm worn out... all the other windows (24 total) must wait till tomorrow when I've got flat brackets and more energy!! .... my next job today is laundry!!
(It feels AWESOME to work on the greenhouse and to feel plans come together for the new house... stove and all!!)

Wow. You have been busy today!
And to think all I did was:
1) take my dog for a walk around the block
2) drive through Taco Bell
3) Take my neighbors' picture for their Holiday card.
I am planning on doing some paperwork for my job, however. Might take the dog hiking, too.
