Well, I hate missing a Thursday Thirteen (I had a nice little streak going :roll:), but I just don’t have time to throw one together, much less visit anyone else. And I hate not being able to reciprocate, so I just decided to skip it this week. And next week as well, as we’ll be on vacation.
I have tons to do, lots of last minute vacation stuff. I have to make a list and start packing, as well as get all of our clothes washed today. We went last night and picked up a couple of new things (yeah!) for vacation. Mostly golf-related stuff for Tim, but I did get a new pair of jeans. Wishful thinking on my part, I think, that I will be able to wear jeans and not shorts!
We taped the results show of Dancing with the Stars and I was not surprised by the outcome. Totally forgot to tape Bones also, which is a good show. I’m looking forward to Survivor tonight! I hope our HD channel is going to broadcast it in HD, we love catching stuff on our new digital/HD line-up. I also have to get busy and make a list of shows to tape while we are gone. Lots of our favorites are going to be on while we’re off on vacation, and while we might get a chance to watch them, I don’t want to risk it! So, I want to try to tape as much as we can. On the list, the premiere of Amazing Race Sunday night, NCIS & The Unit next week, Dancing with the Stars, etc. We’ll also have to tape our football game on Sunday!
OK, since it went over well yesterday, we’ll try another Question of the Day:
Do you make an effort to clean up your house before you leave on vacation?
I do, it’s this weird obsessive thing I have. My husband always teases me that I’m cleaning up for the burglars. I think that mostly I just like everything to be as neat and orderly as possible when we get home. We’re usually tired from vacation, and have mountains of laundry to catch up on, as well as a bunch of other stuff that needs to be done when we get back. A dirty or messy house is not something I relish returning home to.
Leave me a comment and let me know if you share this pre-vacation cleaning syndrome! π
