OK, so here’s the deal. I am going to be using my blog for a while as a journal because frankly, I can’t find a notebook. I am having surgery 3/3/11. That is next Thursday. Before that happens, I need to get this place in order because I will be laid up for a while. Normally, it is very clean around here but my routines have slacked off because of the pain I have been in. So, I am going to get as many things accomplished before work as possible.
This morning I called work to make sure they had the necessary paper work to take to the doctor so I can get the time off I will need to recover and hopefully get some pay during the weeks I will be off. I pay into a program for short term disability and if that comes through, I will be very happy, if not, that is why I save for things. I have enough money saved up to keep the bills paid for 2 months. I should only be off work 3 – 4 weeks depending on the recovery time. I did however, spend a little money on a couple of new books to read while I am unable to get up and move around. I really dislike not working so I figured I would need something to keep my mind occupied and not simply sleep all the time.
The doctor’s office opens at 8 am so I will call and find out how late they are open and getting the paperwork in there today will be on my to do list.
TO DO:
- I have one load of laundry to go into the washer, and another going in the dryer right now.
- Do the dishes and put away the clean dishes
- Clear the table and the counters
- Clean the microwave
- Sweep and wet jet the kitchen floor
- Pick up and put away anything that doesn’t belong in the living room.
- Wipe down the entertainment center
- Sweep and mop the living room floor
- Simply clean up my room and make the bed
- Clean up the boys room (already basically clean)
- Get paperwork to the doctor
OK. That is what needs to be done right now. I do have to work today also, so I am hoping everything goes smoothly.
