Well, That Never Happens

I finished everything that was on my to-do list today!

Yes, I keep to-do lists. As a testament to my very high level of anal-retentiveness, my to-do lists are in outline format. I admit it.

The list for today looked something like this:

1. Tuesday
a. Sub
b. Choir
c. Work Out
d. Clean bathroom
e. Clean bedroom (Wash sheets!!)

And I did all of these things and managed to go through some papers that really needed to be sifted. I now have a massive batch of papers to shred, and I have a large bag full of paper down in the recycle bin. The rest will be filed...eventually.

But I am very proud of myself. I even managed to wash my sheets and towels. I try to do those weekly but have been slacking lately.

Oh, and I had a very cool surprise. A month or so ago I got a survey in the mail adressed to me as the owner of a Mazda Protege. I set it aside thinking, "maybe I'll do it sometime." Tonight I opened it and it contained a crisp (real) $1 bill! How often do you open random mail and get paid a buck for doing it?

Speaking of money, it turns out I have about 90 pounds sitting in my English bank account. I thought I was broke and therefore didn't bother opening the last statement that was sent. Imagine my surprise! With the current exchange rate, that's $156.33!

In other news, the sub jobs are rolling in. I had two calls today--one from the middle school, one from the elementary school, for two different days. I subbed yesterday, this morning, and will sub all day tomorrow and in the afternoon on Thursday. Friday I'm going shopping. I have a Harry Potter DVD to buy!

All in all, a productive and lucrative day for Meg. : )
