swestrupDidn't really get enough sleep last night. I nodded off sometime between 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM and woke from a bad dream at 7:30 AM. I figured I might as well get up.
Yesterday was surprisingly busy. I spent the morning trying to make a dent in my mail backlog that accumulated during my week-long depression, and even sent out some CV's to prospective employers (not that I'm holding my breath, but maybe I'll get lucky). Then I went on a quick little excursion with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
taxlady to get some paperwork done at the Employment Insurance office and City Hall. We also stopped at a hardware store to buy $10 of assorted bits and bobs to fix things around the house that have gone wonky. One of these was the downstairs toilet, which needed a new flapper valve. Yay for being able to flush again!
We also stopped to do some window shopping at a home decorating store, sincetaxlady and I have realized we really don't know much about each other's taste in furniture, fabrics, paint colors, etc. Next time we have some money, I think we're going to be trying to spruce the place up a bit.
We finally returned home around 6:00 PM, and by the time we'd gotten supper and I'd done my chores it was already 9:00 PM and I stopped trying to be productive. I puttered around for a few hours and then went off to bed.
