Show & Tell
Here’s what I did yesterday:
By Suzy
- Worked all day.
- Sent flowers to our vet and her staff to thank them for finding an excEt home for two of my mother’s cats which she couldn’t keep in her new apartment.
- Dropped off film of damage done to my Mom’s stuff during her move from San Diego to Petaluma to be developed and sent to the offending movers.
- Wrote complaint letter to movers (bonus: writing letter helped to dispel complete outrage at movers’ incompetence) and sent it registered mail.
- Went to the drug store.
- Bought groceries and lugged them home.
- Downloaded more photos of move-induced damage from digital camera to Ofoto and ordered prints to be sent with the other photos once developed.
- Brought one of my father’s paintings to framing store to have glass broken on the flight from London replaced.
- While en route to framing store, twisted ankle on uneven pavement and fell to my knees, which now have a serious case of road rash and are quite swollen and even less fit for public viewing than usual (bonus: glass was already broken on painting, so only damage was to me and my pride). Oww, though. And still.
- Picked up sympathy card for co-worker whose father passed away a few days ago, wrote heart-felt message and mailed it.
- Went to the vet’s to pay for boarding my mother’s cats before they were adopted. Bill for boarding, etc. $600. SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS.
- Paid bill and managed not to faint.
- Went home and did all the usual daily tasks, including feeding cats and making dinner.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
