Backlog

There are a ton of things around the house that have needed my attention, but I have done nothing. So today, I decided to start (to commence to begin) working on them...baby steps...one job at a time. I am beginning to get a picture of what I want to do around here by way of room configuration. I'll probably move back into my old room, put the furniture that's in there (plus the double bed) into Robin's room as a "guest room", dump Robin's furniture, and turn the garage room into a sort of family/play room. It will take some work and some muscle, but it makes more sense than having a four-bedroom house with only one person living in it! Robin's furniture is Megan's old childhood furniture. It has not survived well. I don't think the Robster would mind having a full-sized bed in her room as long as everything else were the same.

So...I've been cleaning out around the radio/computer area of my bedroom. What a disaster! Dust, cobwebs, crumbs, clutter...you name it! Cleaning up the dust hasn't helped my nose much. Work, work...blow, blow...work work. After a couple of hours, you still can't see what I've done. 'Tis an indication of how much there is to do!

Big Colts game today. Colts vs. Ravens. Indianapolis Colts vs. Baltimore Ravens. The Colts used to be the Baltimore Colts...but left town during the night over 20 years ago...defecting to Indy. Do you see what I'm getting at? Home playoff game. Rivalry. All makes for drama! Don't know if my heart can take it, but I intend to watch!

Back to work here. SOOOO much to do to make this place presentable in the event that I croak. I do think about that...
