double ugh

yesterday, I could not shake the badness of the day. I got a recall notice for my car (which I was told was not going to happen when I tried to be proactive about this) and I got a notice from my insurance telling me in short that I had lied to them about the age of my house and my premium is going to skyrocket now--also, there was so much freakin' traffic in RVA yesterday that I could not effectively run all the errands i needed to--which was okay b/c I left all of my coupons in my car (this was supposed to be smart--but not so smart when i ended up taking my mom's car so she could deal with my recall) Also, oskar dug a huge hole in the backyard and i _really_ was hoping to not have to deal with my backyard at all for a while---but it is covered in dog poop, has a huge hole and the grass is up to my knees. yesterday made me grumpy---oh, i also managed to not sleep well friday night (could not get warm)--which of course made me have a headache all day saturday.

So i went to bed really early (in bed at 7, talked to joe from 8-9:30---asleep by 10) in the hopes that today would redeem yesterday. so far, meh.

I have a lot of projects and i am just not doing them. i started on my bathroom remodeling by sorting out the crap under the sink....then i realized that I have more pressing issues and can deal with putting up the hardware and painting in a week when it is spring break. But since then, i have been a slug. I crushed all the cans i have collected and looked up a few places that might give me money for them (this is a social experiement of sorts--how much money can be made off of church hill's litter alone) I have now made lunch and am regrouping. So here is the new plan to get me out of my unmotivated, grey funk.
1) eat lunch and finish book
2) nap
3) wok oskar and return netflix movie and cancel subscription (or at least reduce it).
4) weed front garden
5) move bricks to side path
6) mow front grass
7) turn over compost and try to fill oskar's hole.
8) mow side grass if up to it
9) shower then go get coffee and work on school stuff
10) use coupon at DSW to buy cheap teva-like sandals
10) make lunch for tomorrow.

ok this is the stuff that must get done today. I might also swing by kroger to buy yogurt.

on to number 1. let us hope this funk dissolves.

maybe you could bury the compost in oskar's hole?
