Just a warning!

Fall break is a-comin' this week, and I plan to accomplish quite a bit, both around the apartment and around town. Four days with no classes? Zowie! Here is the short list:

House:

• Iron Fest! (meaning simply iron my wrinkly but clean clothes)
• Clean the inside of both fridge and oven
• Autumn-clean house top to bottom (using Martha's tips for weekly cleaning)
• Caulk bathtub and toilet (yeah, after 50 years, leaks have developed) 

Around Town:

• Monthly Goodwill drop-off
• Dry-cleaning drop-off
• Car wash and trunk clean-out
• USPS returns and mailings
• Get Bella's tires patched and inflated: good to go!

Fun:

• Go look at houses for sale
• Friday dinner out with friends

Like I said, the short list. There's more, dull stuff on the side. But yes, it is a vacation, and while my first desire was to go to San Antonio for a few days, my Frugality 2010 plan decrees that I try out the local "stay-cation" stuff. And I must catch up here, anyway.
