Log
10:00 AM: I’m up. Today, for the third day in a row, it appears overcast, with temperatures ranging in the upper twenties this morning. No rain or snow is falling currently however.
11:30 AM: Processed all pending email (approximately a hundred messages). All have been filed, discarded, or otherwise, completely acted upon.
11:45 AM: Applied all recent Internet purchases to my checking account.
02:30 PM: Started the laundry. Today, there’s underwear, towels, sheets, dish cloths, and wash cloths.
02:00 PM: Mom’s home nurse visited and drew blood for the periodic thickness test they must run to assure that the blood is not clotting too fast or too slowly. The nurse also recommended some strategies to get Mom the medicine she thinks she needs at more affordable prices. We’re working that issue now.
03:30 PM: Worked a half-hour on the Christmas Lighting: 2010 project, putting more C9 lights on the east-facing roof edge.
04:15 PM: Called the vet about our cats; they’ve picked up fleas somewhere, and pretty bad too. They’re scratching much of the time, and so am I. 
We’ll go to the vet tomorrow to get a second dose of flea medicine for them. This medication must be administered every three weeks; not every month.
