1) go to sleep (it's currently 4am my time) [UPDATE - DONE]
2) wake at a reasonable hour to accomplish the following: [UPDATE - DONE]
3) pick up clean, un-moldy handmade rugs I took to the specialists after the 'water in the basement' incident [UPDATE - DONE]

4) return items at craft store... reimburse my credit card? No - get a gift card (yippee!!!!!!) [UPDATE - DONE]
5) go to lung doctor (actually, she's an asthma/allergy specialist... but it's more dramatic to say 'lung doctor') [UPDATE - DONE]
6) pack gifts to send to friends/family [UPDATE - DONE]
7) take box to Post Office (see #6) [UPDATE - almost DONE...heading to post office soon...whoops! am back again - got there too late, was unable to mail package... hopefully tomorrow] [2nd UPDATE - DONE]
8) clean kitchen. seriously. [UPDATE - DONE]
9) start the holiday baking? pumpkin bread loaves. that's this year's gift. get some bags to wrap/store them in once ready... then slip into freezer until it's time [UPDATE - DONE]
10) hang white Christmastree lights outside (well, hang more - there's currently one strand up, but it looks kinda hokey... must hang more) [UPDATE - DONE hahaha...DONE...hahaha... ]
11) OH! MOVE THIS UP TO #1. CALL/SCHEDULE PEOPLE TO MAKE REPAIRS ON MY CONDO. IT'S A WORK DAY, SO THEY'LL ANSWER THE PHONE. whew...glad i remembered that one. [UPDATE - DONE!!!! Whooo-Hoo! YAE TEAM! ]
12) bleach part of the basement that may still have mold (see #3)
13) laundry
14) fold laundry
15) bring laundry upstairs
16) decide where to put laundry... can try some temporary locations until i figure out which drawer works best for which sorts of clothes... although it's really a process...must do #13, then #14, then #15 before I can even approach #16. is it futile? perhaps. i've lived here since late July.
17) Christmas cards? well, for staff yes. [UPDATE - DONE]
18) and then, after I've accomplished all of the above, and just for grins, i might go to the pottery studio and finish up a few ornaments. who knows?
19) go to recycle center - take the stuff from my garage... kitchen... get it out of here!
20) take out trash [UPDATE - DONE]
21) before doing #20, empty refrigerator...you know, like say goodbye to the turkey from Thanksgiving over a week ago. All together now: "Goodbye" [UPDATE - DONE]
22) #22 relates to #6 & #7. My younger brother's birthday is in eary Janurary. He always gets *jipped* w/ combo Christmas-Birthday presents... so I was thinking of sending his now... as a surprise. The only problem i see with that is he will have fewer gifts to open on his actual day... and I'd hate to contribute to a let-down. Especially on such a special day. should i? or shouldn't i? the gifts are already wrapped... just need to be stuck inside a box and added to pile for #7.
[UPDATE - he lives in Queens, NY... said to bring them at Christmas - his Post Office is terrible, and his neighbors steal packages. Good enough for me, his present will be personally delivered at-a-later-date ...DONE]
23) are you still with me? Let's play Monopoly - you may now pass Go and collect $200.
24) methinks crossing #1 off of my list will make rain a bit less punchy... and hopefully i'll start making more sense... i mean, 'cuz now i'm juosa a;lisdf dklfuavn asd;fi z zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz z z z z z z ' . . zzzzzzzzz.
