Done yesterday (20120114 Sa)

[mdlbear]

A pretty good day; I took a 3-mile walk (Los Gatos Creek trail), and made a tasty dinner (broccoli chicken). I also got an unexpected $6K refund from the mortgage impound, apparently because the bank once again failed to pay the earthquake insurance. I covered it with a credit card, IIRC, so that's where this particular windfall is headed.

On the way back from dropping Colleen off at FurCon, I stopped in at OSH and saw that they had iGo laptop chargers on sale for half off, so I got one. It'll stay in the living room where I keep Cygnus, so I'll be able to leave the original charger in the bag.

Since I started dinner with a whole (though cut-up) chicken, I now have two bags in the fridge for tonight: one of bones for soup, and one of skin, fat, and wings for frying to crispy goodness. *rubs hands gleefully*

I've gotten a lot of comments on my last couple of posts, not all of them favorable. In the future I will resist the temptation to comment in public about other people's posts, even when they close them to my direct comments.

I have also been contemplating stopping my daily "done yesterday" updates, as a way of giving myself a little more time in the mornings. I think I'll keep going for now, just because it's useful to be able to look back and try to see what happened. What do people think about that? Should I drop back to once or twice a week, perhaps?

A good link from +Mike Shaw on depression, shared on G+. On a much lighter note, also from G+, here's an animated version of "The Cat Came Back".

  * up 8am; W=195; drugs, nose, teeth, laundry, dishes, exercise, light
  * s4s:  Wheelin' (also Creative Jam prompt)
  * Take Colleen to FurCon
  & OSH:  bought an iGo laptop charger (half off=$40).  The 703 tip, for
    Thinkpad R61, X60, etc. fits Cygnus just fine.  I'm going to leave it
    at home, since it's a little heavier than the stock one.  But now I know
    what to look for.
  * walk:  3 miles, Los Gatos Creek
  * dinner:  broccoli chicken
    Since I was starting with a whole bird I also ended up with bags of
    skin/fat/wings for rendering, and bones for soup.
  | cold.  Having some honey/ginger, because my throat also hurts a little
  : Unexpected $6K refund from impound.  I'm guessing it's because the bank
    didn't pay the earthquake insurance.  I had to put it on a credit card,
    IIRC, so that's where most of this is going.

  * Christmas tree put away -- in the closet between the bedroom and garage.
    Much easier than clearing a wide enough way to the attic.

You have to figure out what's best for you, as to making the "done yesterday" posts. How much do they help as compared to the time they use up?
