Thursday afternoon
I've been greatly productive so far today. How unusual. ;)
First, I did my hair. It's not all that red, but it's approximately what I had in mind, so that's nice. Sort of a dark blonde with a red tint to it. Also, I tend to either do it as soon as I buy the stuff or it waits for weeks for me to remember, and I'm glad I have it over with.
Also, I initiated a bit of cleanup.. the house is pretty much a mess. Most of it isn't dirty, just very messy, with stuff everywhere. That's a problem with this house. It's small enough that if one thing is out of place, it looks like a tornado went through. But I got some of that done, and will do some more when I go change the laundry over in a few minutes. I made Magnus a to-do list on the whiteboard that hangs on the computer room door hinting about the dishes.
We just had some drive-by visitors. Dad and Papaw Olgie were on the golf cart, and they stopped to talk a minute. I gave them the bills to put in the mailbox to give them somewhere else to drive.
Oh yes, and the other thing that I've done today, which is the true measure of my productivity. I sorted and arranged my pictures. Most of them were pulled out of the envelope and mixed up, so I separated them into categories and made dividers for the picture box. This took forever. I still have an unsorted box full of walletish sized professionally done portraits of Whitley, the other kids, friends from school, school dance pictures, etc. I don't think I'll bother working on those until i get a proper photo album for just those type of pictures.
Oh! And I finally found a frame for my pretty little cross-stitch thingie! It was an odd shape.. 5 x 5 inches, and I've been looking for one with very little success. I found one that *might* have worked at Big Lots, but I would've had to alter it a bit. This one is really pretty, too, and it was relatively cheap for the style. Gotta love WalMart.
It's getting late enough to worry about what to fix for dinner. Ergh. Boring. ;) Anyway, need to go work on the laundry.
