To Do: Maintain Sanity

This weekend is a four-day weekend for me, Dear Readers. Monday is a holiday for us lucky federal civil servants; and Tuesday is my compressed day. Bliss. What a chance to relax and catch up on my sleep. Once I get the following items accomplished:

1. Groceries (even sleepy girls must eat)
2. Laundry
3. Clean the crusts off of the bathroom sink and the tub
4. Cook a big batch of onion soup, for freezing
5. Buy a christmas tree
6. Plan for a get-together I'm hosting next Thursday
7. Childcare duties
8. Dishes x 3
9. Sweep
10. Mop the front hall
11. Get a small mat so I don't have to mop the front hall as frequently as I have been
12. See if I can find an inexpensive pair of blue jeans, because I am sick of having only one pair that fit.
13. Get together next Thursday may involve some of my famous home-made chocolate chip cookies. Although on second thought maybe I should bake them Thursday so they will be all warm when people show up.
14. Buy insulin. This one is important.
15. Work out four times.
16. Find a winter hat that Frances will wear.
17. And some waterproof mittens.
18. And a waterproof mattress pad, because I think we are working up to diaperless nights.
19. But in the meantime, I do need to get her some more diapers.
20. Possibly get together with a local nanowrimo group for a writing session Monday.
21. Finish stripping the night table.
22. Write 12,000 words of a novel.

No biggie.

By Wednesday I'm sure I will be fully rested and refreshed.

Or dead. One or the other.

"Or dead. One or the other." Heh. I've been there.

I'm afraid to make a list because I'm afraid it will cause my head to explode.
