Ten on Tuesday

summersweet

Ruby Spice Summersweet is extra fragrant this year

(Clethra alnifolia)

Ten things to do instead of watching the boob-tube. I’m leaving knitting and spinning off the list because it’s like brushing your teeth, just do it. I still ended up with a bonus.

  1. Grab your favorite alcoholic beverage and a book and head for the deck. You’ll remember it in December.
  2. Figure out the intricacies of reward travel from different programs to be used on partner airlines, hotels and car rentals. Two hours slips away unnoticed. Who designs these things?
  3. Worry about sending a partially deaf and disabled husband half-way across the country by himself.
  4. Design a baby sweater. I can’t find just what I’m looking for so I’m taking elements from several patterns to knit another denim baby sweater.
  5. Worry about why your cat hasn’t come home for 24 hours (he came home in 26).
  6. Go out for ice cream. If you’re a masochist, weigh yourself afterward.
  7. Do anything outside: pull weeds, go for a walk or bike ride. You’ll remember it in December.
  8. Make a quiche with all those veggies and eggs in the fridge. Add eggs to the shopping list, put the veggies back.
  9. Tackle the pile of paperwork on your desk; it’s boring but you’ll feel better afterward.
  10. Go shopping online, fall is just around the corner.
  11. Clean out your closet of everything that doesn’t fit. Give it away or store it so you can find the stuff that does fit. See #10.

    Yeah, I put paperwork on my list, too. Stupid thing grows every time I turn away.

    Excellent list. Remarkably close to what I would have said.

    OMG, I could fix #8 for you – I’ve got 12 dozen eggs in my fridge. A couple of our regular customers are on vacation, so the eggs are starting to pile up…
