Onwards with the To-Do List of Doom

[layla]

Crossed some items off my list tonight. So many to go. *sob* But it does help, psychologically, to see them checked off. And just having them on there is an incentive to do them -- just to get the satisfaction that comes of making a check mark! Which was what I had hoped for. Now if I can just keep it up 'till they're all gone. On the down side, most of the items I've checked off have involved staring at a computer screen, and between the 8 hours that I spent staring at a computer at work, plus the cold that I got from Orion, I now have the headache from hell. Blah.

In other news, we bought a truck.



FINALLY we have four-wheel drive to deal with our goddawful driveway! Between this, the garage and the snowplow we're becoming quite well set up for Alaskan winters. We already have a pile of coal, we've topped off the propane tank, AND Orion scavenged a nice big heating oil tank so that we don't have to fill up the 55 gallon drum with 5 gallon cans anymore. This winter should be quite comfortable.

And finally, a picture of the Mop, just because I can:

Heh, Mop looks *a lot* like our Freddy...sounds like him too -annoying in a cute way :)
And congrats on the truck! (as you no doubt recall, our driveway wasn't much fun either:P) May it serve you well.

Yes ... of course, we had to buy a giant gas-guzzling truck right before Prudhoe Bay goes into a temporary shutdown and gas prices soar ... sigh. After being used to filling up the Suzuki (12-gallon tank, a couple times a month) I just about died of sticker shock when I filled up the much bigger tank in the Dodge.
