What did you accomplish today?

JustJo · 09-23-2011, 06:35 AM

Hoping that today goes more smoothly....yesterday looked like:

up at 5:30...cup of instant coffee for me (no time for regular)
breakfast for Rooster and me
packed his lunch
got dressed (usually I hang out in pj's for awhile)
delivered boys to school
took car straight to dealership for service
yelled at rude man
discovered that the car needs $768 worth of maintenance...not including new tires, which need to be done "soon"
did not faint
got a ride home on the courtesy shuttle
lost internet several times while trying to work and do conference calls
Scoote fought with comcast on the phone while I unplugged, replugged, disconnected, reconnected, pressed reset buttons, etc.
yelled at Comcast for awhile and got promised a service call between 2 and 5
worked offline (which is a pain in the butt, but I actually got a lot done)
snacked because my stomach was too upset to eat lunch
took advil for headache (rare for me)
got picked up by courtesy shuttle at about 3...back to the dealership
did not faint while paying for car
drove home, kept working, waited until 5.....no service for cable
called Comcast and spent 20 minutes on hold, being shuttled around and being generally pissy with them for their incompetence
waited half an hour for a supervisor to call me back
heated up homemade soup for dinner
in there somewhere....fed and watered animals, cleaned cat box
talked to mom....she's sounding worse
cancelled her flight here since she's still in hospital...thank goodness JetBlue has competent customer service people who were actually helpful and efficient....couldn't have taken more "service" like we're getting from Comcast
read for awhile to calm down
bed

Did I mention I hate Comcast?
They are *supposedly* coming this morning....now that I've messed with everything enough to get it working (temporarily no doubt) again.

Oh Comcast...how I love thee! Every bill is an adventure, every phone call with them is a treat!!!!

slept in a little bit
had breakfast
started cleaning my SIL's place.
(yesterday was payday so I got a Dirt Devil steam mop-cleaner thingy. So far we - my sister and I - have done the enclosed back porch, kitchen, dining room and 1/2 the living room. We move all the furniture [including piano!], spray with undiluted Pine Sol, steam, let dry and then replace the furniture).

my sister has gone to get lunch for us - then we finish the living room, hallways, bathroom, office, 2 bedrooms. And we're thinking a couple rooms in the basement have to be done because of the cats don't always use the litter box.
*sigh* I hope I don't burn the motor out on the steam cleaner!

I slept a little late, ate all my meals and then some, did two loads of laundry, ran the dishwasher, listened to music, purchased some supplements, went to a festival, talked with some friends, and saw Ebon off to his boys only sleepover.
