Staying busy and the dow.

Day four of not having a job, I decided that instead of setting around on my bottom I would make an attempt to stay busy. Saturday I detailed my stratus, wash wax, vacuum and steam clean the interior, that took me a while to get accomplished, it was dirtier than it looked.
Sunday I made a quick repair on the Church van, the passenger seat backrest is broke so it will not stay in one position, it only took about ten minutes and a bolt to take care of that.
Monday I started in on the house:

The vacuum needed repaired (new belt) then I vacuumed the whole house,

Washed the dishes,

Cleaned the counters, the stove and the sink,
Did a load of laundry,

Picked up the front room, kitchen and bedroom,

Went through my dirty old stained work clothes and threw them out (Round two, the closets are next!)

Then I went to the store:

Bought two new pillows, (For $5 at Walmart you can get a 100% cotton pillow!! and it IS firm!)

Two new $5 phone (my old one broke, and I didn't have one in the bedroom)

New reflector pans for my electric stove (The other one's were getting rusty BAD!)

and picked up a few other very needed things.

I also stopped at the local auto parts store and picked up a new fuel filter for the Bravada, it's kinda running funny, and that is the one part I had NOT replaced.

Now to the Dow!!!! HOLY MOLY BATMAN!!!!!!!!!! did anyone else see how much the Dow went UP? +936.42!! YES!! I can deal with that!!!! and GAS went down to $2.99!!! I may have been let go, but at least SOME good things are happening!!!!
The Dow went up 11% in ONE day! a few more trading day's like this and I will truly be a happy camper!

What to do today? I need to stop off at the old plant to ask a couple of questions, then file for unemployment, then update my resume, then more house work (my new O.C. thing) then install a starter in a truck (been trying to do that for over a week) then who knows what?
Like I said, my house is my new O.C. there is PLENTY around here to do! like...
Steam clean ALL the carpets
Pull all the books off my bookshelf and clean and paint it
Clean the "computer room" (spare bedroom)
Paint the front room
Paint the bedroom (after putting in a new closet door)
Paint all the trim
Paint the bathroom
Clean and straighten the laundry room and paint it
Get two new shades for the two lamps in the front room
Clean out the five closets in my house
Clean out the backroom, it needs it in a BIG way!
There are SO many things I can get done right now, and for now I have the time to get them done.
You would NOT think that i would be SO busy not having a job? not true! I have time now to look and see what things around the house need to get done, LOTS to get done!
Later all!
