Name three things - 2015

• gave snick and jasper their breakfast, then made mine
• defragged the laptop, again
• gave snick her sub-q's, then gave both cats a snack
• located the external hard drive, got it set up, not functioning properly and after careful investigation it's corrupted
• got the usb card reader out and a 32 GB memory card in it, then moved the little that i wanted saved off of my computer with the failed hard disk to the memory card, ejected the device and stored it away, shut down the 'problem' computer
• made my lunch
• scooped the litter boxes and bundled up the trash
• will run the washing machine shortly

• Rick's mom called yesterday. Jackie is on a special food for her kidneys and bladder and, for some reason, the food got sent to the vet instead of their house. I'm going in during my lunch break today to pick up the food and take it down to their house.
• Errands: In addition to doing some errands for Rick's mother tonight, we have to do some banking, hit Lowes, Target, etc. And we have to get those things done tonight, because Rick's mother wants us to take her for new shoes on Saturday. She also wants to go out for breakfast, so we're leaving rather early tomorrow morning for some shopping.
• The bedroom is a mess right now; we'll have to get that back in some semblance of order. The new windows will need to be stained and varnished, so that should be done this weekend. I did get the curtains washed and ironed last night.
• I have to bake a lemonade cake tonight; we are supposed to have dinner with friends Saturday night and I won't have time to make the cake and get it frosted tomorrow. I'll bake the cake tonight and then frost it tomorrow morning when I get up to give the cats their breakfast. 

• I am working on our third load of laundry right now and have one more load to do. Changed the bed sheets. Scooped out the boxes. All that good stuff.
• A good vacuum about the house, maybe a quick Swiffer, and that's it.
• Once all the laundry is finished, I'm going to work in the garden until it gets late enough that I can mow the yard without disturbing the neighbors. (It's Sunday, so I probably won't mow until early this afternoon. I've always felt that Sunday mornings should be relatively peaceful.)

• Making freezer cabbage tonight (it's basically a pickled cabbage that you can freeze) and will share with her. I'm going to keep some of the cabbage, though, for sauteed cabbage, maybe with our Sunday dinner.
• Lowes and Target
• Sanding the bedroom windows for staining tomorrow. Rick said that while we're at the bedroom windows, we might as do sand down the bay window in the living room and give that another coat of stain, too. The cats' claws have really done a number on that window already.

• I put the shredded zucchini and chopped onions together with the salt last night and plopped it in the fridge overnight. Once my jars and lids have been sanitized in the dishwasher this morning, I'll start putting the relish all together and getting the jars in the canner. I have no idea what it's going to taste like; I hope it will be good.
• Those pineapple zucchini muffins that Rubysmama posted in the Gardening thread are calling my name. I'd like to make them this morning and throw them into the freezer. Checked the pantry and we do have a couple cans of crushed pineapple.
• We had storms all night last night, so it will be a while til things dry enough outside that we can go out to do some yard work. Rick is going to take the recycling down to the center this morning and do some banking. Then he'll put the first coat of stain on the bedroom windows.

• dropped the computer off at the repair shop for diagnostics to be done
• jaspurr saw one of the (two) vet's at our veterinary hospital, she checked his teeth -- some mild tartar, nothing else looked bad, and cat toothpaste/tooth brushing (that i'm already slowly introducing to jaspurr) was all our vet suggested. vet took blood and did the on-site fiv testing -- if i heard the message they left on my answering machine correctly, jaspurr does not have fiv........
  
    the air conditioner in my living room is loud enough that i'm not able to hear the soft voice of the vet tech on my answering machine clearly, so will listen to it again later when i've turned the ac off.
• a little shopping, and a stop at my bank

• Working on laundry this morning while Rick takes his mom to church
• A quick vacuum and Swiffer about the house. I'd like to wipe the kitchen up a bit as I didn't get it done yesterday.
• Mow the yard this afternoon. Boy, is it ever steamy this morning already. We can't even see "our" mountain off in the distance across the road; it is that humid today. Temps to be in the low 90s, so it's going to be a hot one.

• Scooped the boxes this morning before hopping into the shower
• Must grab a few groceries tonight, although if we don't get it done tonight, we can go tomorrow night. The cats have food and that's what's important.

• I have a Planning Commission meeting tonight, but it shouldn't take too long, just to review and approve a minor subdivision plan. Then I can go home!
• We didn't make it for groceries last night as Rick was still working on those windows. We wouldn't leave the house with the windows open. So it's grocery shopping tonight.
• A quick vacuum about the house and scoop the boxes
• Go up to the garden as there were some ears of corn that looked like they might be ready by tonight

Glad Jaspurr is OK! 

We worked outside pretty much all afternoon into the evening yesterday. Til I got my shower last night at 9, I was pooped and more than ready for bed.

• Run some errands for us and for Rick's mom this morning. We need gas for the mowers as I still need to trim with the push-mower.
• Finishing up mulching in the front flowerbed, then will go around to the end of the house and mulch that bed. There's not much in there, so that one should go a little easier.
• Make more sweet zucchini relish. Make some macaroni salad for tonight's dinner. Make a pitcher of mint tea. 
• Pick the corn, the peppers, and the tomatoes. Any zucchini and yellow squash that's up there. There are some tomatoes that need to be picked. Get everything in the freezer. And then, after that's all done, then I'll clean the kitchen counters.
• I should dust in the living room and kitchen and do the scooping thing. Might let the dusting go til tomorrow, while Rick takes his mom to church.
