Done yesterday (20090418)

( to.done 20090418 )

I don't feel as though I got very much done yesterday. Especially considering how much I'll have to do if I want to get our bedroom cleared out and cleaned up by the time Colleen comes home on Friday.

In fact, I haven't done much during the entire last week, when I had the Younger Daughter home from school to help. She did clean her room and the kitchen; that's something.

I did some cleaning, anyway -- more like puttering, but it's a start. And I researched hospital beds at Amazon. If these are the same beds I saw at ABC Medical Supply locally, I could save somewhere between $500 and $700 buying a pair of them from Amazon. If I trusted them and their third-party vendors, some of whom list "10 pounds" for both the dimensions and shipping weight of the objects in question. Nobody lists the actual dimensions or weight, which worries me. And if the difference didn't get gobbled up in shipping costs.

Apart from these "done yesterday" posts, I don't seem to be posting much. Maybe just as well given how long it takes to write one, but I really ought to get back to writing at some point.

The astute reader may notice that I'm using both colleen-200903 and colleen-200904 as tags. I change the date when something major changes; I figure coming home counts, so I'll use the 200904 tag for planning toward that event.

Some progress perhaps

It's been feeling like summer all weekend; it's after dark and the air is still warm. I was glad to be wearing short sleeves for my walk this morning; about four miles alongside Los Gatos Creek.

I've been reasonably productive, too, cleaning up in the bedroom. I've been taking it in short spurts so as not to spend too long in uncomfortable positions, but I've made noticable progress. (Also added noticable boxes and piles in many awkward places, but presumably that's just a temporary side-effect.)
