Today’s Business: 2009-11-24
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Log
06:05 AM: I’m up, after just only four and half hours of sleep. Second night in a row I’ve awakened too early, although the bedroom was not too hot this time. No, this time, I think I consumed too many calories yesterday, too late in the day, and experience shows that over-stuffing the stomach indeed makes for restless nights. I feel somewhat refreshed but still a bit groggy, and I’m yawning a lot. So, until either I fully awaken, or grow tired enough to head back to bed, I’ll just work here on the blogs, on the less creative, more mundane tasks like categorizing posts and checking usage stats.
08:45 AM: Categorized a hundred posts in this, the Tom’s Diary blog.
08:50 AM: Today’s chores include:
- Cat duty
- Showering
- Dispensing Mom’s meds
- Following up on mom’s month-long, pending order of diabetic testing supplies
- Putting out the garbage (tonight)
- Pay all pending bills
10:30 AM: Worked the Thanksgiving dinner, 2009 project while [Emmy] watched KDKA TV’s Pittsburgh Today Live show.
11:55 AM: Just head from Debbie. She’ll be coming tonight to help out with Mom, instead of her usual day, which is tomorrow. So, I’ll have to get a grocery list together this afternoon.
12:35 PM: Balanced my checking account as well as the WPSBC Alumni Association’s.
01:20 PM: Paid all five pending bills.
01:30 PM: Going to the drug store now to pick up Mom’s diabetic supplies.
04:00 PM: Worked the Compaq R3000 CMOS battery replacement project. So far, I’ve located instructions on how to take this laptop apart. That’s a start. 
04:10 PM: Nap time.
04:45 PM: Debbie just arrived and so, [Emmy] are heading out for a little shopping trip this evening.
06:23 PM: We’ve finished the shopping trip, and upon returning home, discovered that Mom is not here. However, some one’s red car is parked in the south lot. She probably went out with someone and the red car’s owner, to dinner. Hopefully, she didn’t forget that Debbie is here to help her.
07:30 PM: Sister Christine says that it’s a go for the New Years Eve party and DJ gig.
08:00 PM: Deducted and processed all pending grocery receipts from the past few days.
10:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless.
11:30 PM: Walked around outside, admiring the Christmas lights. I already have the Christmas spirit, and Thanksgiving’s not even here yet.
01:05 AM: Added the following posts:
These aren’t completely polished yet and the second one has some gaping blank spots that I’ll fill in later. But I wanted to get these items out there, even if they lack some details at present, so that readers have a cursory if not complete view of some key elements of my life. So, do enjoy.
01:25 AM: Okay, I’m sleepy once again. So I’ll sign off for now and be back here in eight hours or less to add more history. Good night friends, and sweet dreams.
