Well I just got around to taking down my February To-Do List off the blog side bar.
Geez! March is 2/3rd over already. lolz
Let's see how I did last month.
* Pay the Bills DONE Boring but good. lolz
* Bike Something FAIL Nope, didn't do it.
* Read 1, 2 Books DONE
A book of short stories about dogs.
A novel about an Irish girl who immigrates to Brooklyn NY in the 1950's. Maybe now I'll watch the movie of it.
* Shred Papers DONE
I got all the backlog of document shredding done in February.
Go me.
* Reorganize and File ALL the Paperwork DONE
I got the last basket of paperwork filed.
* Hold Giveaway DONE
* Mail Giveaway Done Though the winner has yet to let me know it arrived or answer my email inquiring about whether she got the book.
* Hold 2nd Giveaway DONE
* Mail 2nd Giveaway Not Yet Two emails to her plus posting it on the blog and I am STILL waiting for her to contact me with her info. sigh.
This is such a pain and is holding me up on doing the March Giveaway.
Maybe I'll just stop doing Giveaways.....
* Clean up Garage
* Clean my Desk area FAIL Not yet. Just didn't get to it. It's on the list for March and I'll probably do it this week.
* Unbox and Use Christmas Gifts DONE
I finally got around to opening my BIG Xmas present from "Santa" in February. Not like I wasn't distracted by other things in December and January(Hubs' accident and convalescence)
I am in LOVE with this robotic floor cleaner! It's specifically made for pet hair and that's what the problem is here with Daughter's half Husky/half Shepherd doggy. She sheds constantly. It wasn't as much as a Roomba brand one so if we kill it prematurely due to all the hair I am ok with that.
I have named him "Hymie".
* Gather Tax Info DONE I got all the info gathered for Hubs.
* Do Taxes PASS We decided to get tax software and Hubs is handling the taxes this year. With the rental income I didn't feel I could adequately handle taxes this year. I am still waiting for Hubs to actually FILE the taxes...he's finished filling and printing everything out, he just has to file them.
* Work on Genealogy DONE I've done a bit in February and actually had a 4th cousin contact me through the blog in Feb. He had read my post about Ab Redmond my ancestor who was lynched in 1893. Actually this cousin and I are double related, both directly through my 3x Great Grandfather Foster and through the common ancestors 2nd wife(his 3x Great Grandmother)who is also my 3rd Great Aunt(my 2x Great Grandfather Baker's sister).
Got that? ;-)
* Work on F.A.G. Stuff FAIL Other than a few ancillary items dealt with I really didn't do much Find A Grave work in Feb. I inherited a TON of memorials on F.A.G. from a woman who didn't want to care for/maintain them anymore. I really need to set some time aside to go into the site and put through edits others have sent me and clean up and link up some of these memorials. It's work since many are NOT my family members so I need to do research on them to get the details correct.
So how did you do getting things crossed off your To-Do List in Feb?
