Taking care of business


Here's what I've accomplished in the last couple of days:

-I have cleaned out the car - it actually was no big deal.
-Had 2 of the 3 kids sleep over last night, and Miss M.M. and I made a tie-dye shirt that came out awesome - I wish it was mine... if it was larger I would tell her that it fell apart in the washer, then keep it for myself.
-Went to the office to pick up bullsh!t stickers for all signage as per new bullsh!t MLS regulations - of course not all stickers were available, so I have to go in again next week... Also picked up General Expense Statements so as I can complete GST... then taxes...
-Cleaned off bulletin board - including: office phone numbers from August 2005, MLS stats from September 2006, a bunch of papers about free trip to Vegas, receipts necessary to do GST, MLS number for a client whom I sold a house to in August, U of T car stickers, Billy's friends' email addresses (they are in his hotmail...) and finally the complete NLF schedule.
-Went grocery shopping and resisted urge to buy a magazine with an anorexic May Kate Olsen on it - my will power is amazing, the force is strong with me...
-Cleaned out some of the filing cabinet.
-Determined total amount spent in 2005 on phone, internet, gas, hydro, hot water tank rental, and water - was on average $12.09 per month higher than 2004 - need this to do taxes as well, as I work from home.
-Started to shred old bills and statements - I tried to convince Miss M.M. that it was fun, but that only last about 10 minutes, I have about an hours' worth to do...
-Printed form regarding 'misplaced' passport, and have seriously *thought* about filing police report...
-All regular household duties - laundry, dishes, recycling, etc...
-Completed priliminary planning for 14 showings this week-end to out of town buyers. Shall map out and schedule appointments tomorrow.

I'm feeling seriously less overwhelmed, and I'm going to start on my GST, (and maybe taxes) in a few minutes. Scratch, scratch, scratch!
