Just One Thing After Another

Last night I made a lengthy list of things I need to do today. I love lists, well, I love crossing items off lists.

However, for some reason, nothing is going as planned today. So very few things have been crossed off my list and it's already 3:00p.m. Ugh. Let me review.

I wrote down to finish my history homework, which consists of answering questions to passages I "read." No problem, that's an hour max. Wrong. One question requires me to interview someone who lived in Iowa from 1920 to 1940 and compare what I learned from today. I am not even an official Iowan, how on Earth am I supposed to find someone? I know my deceased grandpa was born in Harlan, Iowa in 1930. So with this information, there will probably be a lot of made up answers. All I need is a C in the class, so I don't care all that much.

Needless to say, I didn't answer one question yet, and therefore cannot say my homework is complete. Fine, I'll just vacuum the dirty carpet. Nope. It's kind of hard to vacuum if you can't find it anywhere in the entire house. Where on Earth could it have gone? Hopefully not too far, it was an Oreck.

So, I moved onto working on a couple of websites for a couple of clients. It started out well until my computer became too slow to open more than 5 pages at a time, and I couldn't get completed what I needed to. Awesome. I'll just move on.

As I was saving all of my work, Tyler woke up and went to take a shower. Dang it. I was about two minutes away from going to clean it. Now I have to wait a couple of hours before I go to clean it, because it is easier when the bathtub is dry.

So, now I sit, with two of my ten things crossed off my list: go on a morning run and do the dishes. Gosh, I wish this could have been a more productive day, especially since I slept the last two days away from feeling under the weather.

No matter how today goes, tonight I am going to church for a clarity ice cream social. I love God and I love ice cream, so tonight should be fun. :)
