Today’s Business: 2009-09-28
Went through all office files and threw out the ones no longer needed.
Noticed a problem with the DVR (digital video recorder). Sometimes, it fails to record shows that I’ve programmed. This just started within the past month. I can get around it by checking the list of scheduled recordings periodically, and if there are some missing, I can reprogram them. Perhaps a call to the cable company is warranted.
Made buttered chicken curry for lunch. Quite good, and there are lots of leftovers to look forward to having later this week.
Sister Mary Ann stopped by. We rearranged some furniture to make it easier for Mom to get around when she gets home; after her second opinion doctor visit this morning, we think she’ll get back here at around the end of October. Mary Ann also recommends that we proceed with building a ramp for Mom, as she’ll be using a wheelchair for some months after she comes home.
Watched The Young and the Restless, Judge Judy, and listened to all pending episodes of the podcast 60 Second Science.
Moved the kitchen table into the back end of the living room.
Wrote the piece about The Blue Mirror.
Did several small loads of laundry for Mom; they don’t offer laundry service at her nursing facility. So every week or so, we get a bag full of stuff to wash. I guess we’ve come full circle because she used to wash my laundry each week when I went away to school. Now, here I am doing hers.
It rained all morning. Then the sun came out during the afternoon and the humidity fell way low. Lots of wind too. The temperatures got up into the high 60s.
