I so dislike being an adult on days like today. It's sunny, beautifully cool/warm, breezy...all the things I loved as a kid playing outside til dark with Derek or when I wanted to skip class in college. Alas, an adult I'll be.
I declared this week TIME TO SPRING CLEAN. We've got a laundry list of things to do despite having just one room between us to store all our things. Really though, it's a long list.
Today I Spring Cleaned:
...our bed sheets...
...our pillow cases...
...our blankets...
...our floor (via vacuum that I borrowed from the nice lady downstairs)...
It may not seem like a lot but I feel like I've been doing laundry for HOURS.
On tap to be Spring Cleaned:
...organize our groceries...
...take all our recyclables and redeemables to be recycled and redeemed...
...take out trash...
...dry clean my dry cleaning...
...handwash my handwashing...
Other adult-like things we've done this week:
...finished our self-prepared taxes...(scary...)
...sent our MN, IA, & Federal returns...
...filed our dispute on our credit report...
...talked with a realtor about a potential home :)...
...found out we would qualify for a $1,000 grant to put towards a downpayment or closing costs (now we just need to find a home and start the contracts!)...
woah. I feel like an adult and now all I want to do on days like today is sit inside and rest because I'm tired.
You are doing a great job, you little young adult. Now you can come to my house and help me spring clean. My house list is bigger than yours.
ReplyDeleteI had to dispute an item on my credit report last year- it was actually from Movie Gallery! Dropped my score over 100 points. It wasn't fun, and it took awhile, but it will all work out in the end :)
ReplyDeleteMom - I bet you're right. I'll take my small to-do list for now :)
ReplyDeleteAimee - I remember that!! I'm hoping it's not as difficult because we've got some of Gary's dad's items on ours. Should be pretty obvious - he wasn't even born when the card was opened...
