Obviously, "constructive" has meant something else over the last 9 years. It could mean anything from organizing the computer to cleaning the house or "getting the finances together and anything in between. Sometimes - a lot of times - (like now) things I've needed/wanted to do have piled up so high, I would get so stressed out that I didn't get any of them done. It's kind of been like that lately. Things are on the list that seem impossible. Stuff like getting the car financed. Anytime it comes down to anything regarding CREDIT it's become a nightmare. Shelly is right. I have not only ruined my credit but hers as well. This goes back a long time...to the early days of our marriage and all of the gambling fiascos that ensued, both land based and the online variety. I'm almost 50 years old and have at best never had any credit, unless it was bad. Sometimes it wasn't a big deal - not unless u wanted to buy a house or get a new car. I'm not trying to sit here and get all depressed, but this shit should have been taken care of years ago. Of course, had it been taken care of, what would have been the difference if it just went bad again? And now that everything from jobs to insurance gets your damn credit report, it's more than just a "good" thing to have good credit. It's a necessity.
But I digress. I've got plenty of things to do. Not just today, but ongoing. Lots of things that I don't really want to deal with one way or the other but I must. I already have a ta-da list...but here's another one...
- Fill out forms for WFHM and fax, detailing that it will take a few days to get the canceled checks from Mom.
- ASAP - talk to Mom as calmly as possible regarding the canceled checks and arrange to have them sent.
- Look up what needs to be done about VOWS thing. Would BK take care of this?
- BK possibilities. Obviously this costs a lot - but if I could find someone (thru Charles possibly?) that would do it pro bono, I think it would help things considerably. I think this might be the only way we have to take care of a few things and start fresh.
- Finances. Get something going on that with Charles. We're going to have to come up with ways to save money.
- JPS Connect - necessary for several reasons: My ongoing health issues (BP, etc) and Todd's teeth. Not necessary to be done b4 I get something done about my BP, but it wouldn't hurt.
- Sears - possibly new keyboard and a few other things?
- Finish editing that Minute Clinic Doctor's note for Todd and send it in.
- Moneymaking opportunities. $$ from the paint place will be good, and a nice place to start - but it's only a start. I need to come up with verifiable, real opportunities NOW.
- Imacros/sweeping. I've got to get started on this and make it good.
Miscellaneous Stuff:
- Steam cleaner maintenance and repair
- Vacuum cleaner maintenance and repair
- Computer maintenance and repair (blowing out dust/etc)
- Shelly's computer - take one of the hard drives out of the "extra" computer and put it in there, alternatively I could use that one I have in the faulty USB enclosure
- Air filter - need to buy. Temporarily - clean the one we have.
- Vehicles - time is running out to get the Tracker (and the truck) inspected. We basically have almost three weeks - but being out the 30 bucks for a failed inspection in order to get $$ from Aircheck Texas - how long will that take?
- What is that whining sound heard quite frequently while driving the Sentra?
- House cleaned thoroughly
- Toilet repaired in Jolene's bathroom.
- Leaks repaired in pvc pipe in the back yard.
- Transfer Shelly's music to the other IPOD. Possible repair on Shelly's Ipod
