Geek Habitat

Oops, I just realized it’d been almost a full week since my last entry. Justin, Sprout and I are doing well. I wish I could say I’ve gotten a lot accomplished in the “downtime” from the blog, but judging by my “To Do” list, that isn’t very accurate.

B.S. (Before Sprout!) TO DO LIST

• Dental visit to fill my cavity (Monday, February 26).
• [Recurring Task] Process and ship print orders generated by Moore Photography & Design.
  
• Web updates to our various revenue-producing sites, in priority order (this single task spawns TWO other “To Do” lists… needless to say, I’m all about prioritization right now.)
• Finalize nursery.
• Pack hospital bag.
• Attend baby shower (Sunday, February 25).
• Buy baby shower thank you cards, address and send.
• Perform complete backups of business & personal data drives.
• Install infant carseat in my Escape Hybrid.
• Set-up bassinet upstairs, and Pack & Play and larger swing downstairs.
• Ensure Justin programs his work and personal cellphones with OB, hospital and other important contact numbers.
• Finish washing all baby clothes {90% complete on washing}, tally and put away/store.
• Buy a new vacuum cleaner.
• Buy new bed sheets for master bedroom (the sheets are threadbare, probably because I’ve been tossing and turning in bed for, oh, 8 months now?)
• Install curtain rods (thanks, Dad!) and hang curtains in family room downstairs.
  
• Deep clean house (mop, vacuum, dust, Lysol/Chlorox, etc.)
• Buy plants (thanks for the company yesterday, Mom!) and pot them in our front and back yards, so I’m not staring at dead twigs all Spring. (done, as of this afternoon.)
  
• Meet/visit with our pediatrician on March 8 with Justin.
• [Recurring Task] Attend OB checkups. Appointments remaining: March 9, March 15, March 22, March 29… {boom} DUE DATE April 1, 2007!
