A "got-a-lot-accomplished" day

Sometimes getting a good night's sleep pays off.
Today I:

• Made my usual cuppa and shoved some yoghurt and berries inside me.  Tea went in car
• Stopped at "Tim Horton's" to pick up a fresh decaf. for Mum
• Went to Mum and Dad's to check in for the day's errands
• Drove Dad to the Audiology Centre to inquire about his faulty hearing aids
• Popped by the dry cleaners to drop off some shirts of his
• Picked up some gin at the liquor store
• Took Dad back home
• Spoke to the cleaning lady about coming more often
• Got Mum settled with a hot water bottle for her back pain (over a week now)
• Answered the door to a neighbour wanting to borrow a ruler
• Took the garbage down to the basement for them
• Carried the empty bottles down to the car to return for refund
• Checked with the building manager about the painting being done in the basement
• Drove to the grocery store to pick up some veg's and a few other items on the "list'
• Stopped at Canadian Tire to get the car washed
• Went to another grocery store to pick up the remainder of items I couldn't get earlier
• Bought a few cards for upcoming birthday/Fathers' Day
• (Tried to diagnose a new sound coming from the car during my several outings)
• Checked my e-mails and replied to all those I needed
• Made some cut-and-paste adjustments to Dad's memos and photocopied as needed
• Marinated the pork for dinner (tonight and tomorrow)
• Returned the bottles for refund
• Dropped off groceries and photocopies at Mum and Dad's
• Checked on patio plants - sadly the pansies I planted last month all have aphids
• Confirmed with them my schedule for tomorrow
• On the way back I stopped at their previous address and took a photo for the memory bank
• Prepared two lessons for students this afternoon ( plan, copy, note, assemble, etc.)
• Came home and tried to notify my bank of a change of address, but had to call as well. (All done now)
• Paid some bills online
• Drove to the Reading Clinic to tutor my students
• Tutored for two hours
• Came out to the car to notice fresh bird droppings on the back window
• Returned home via Staples to pick up packing tape (for all the boxes I have packed over the last two evenings)
• Arrived home and put dinner on to cook
• Brought in all the empty garbage and recycling cans/boxes
• Ate
• Made up a tentative Schedule/ To Do list for the next ten days before I leave
• Watched Jeopardy ( a regular indulgence)
• Booked a reservation for dinner at "Luke's Gastronomie" next Saturday (Sister's b'day and Fathers' Day)
• Tried to decide where to put all the packed items so that I have room to invite the ladies at the Reading Clinic next Monday for tea
• Began to summarize all the material I have taught my students in preparation for a meeting tomorrow afternoon

And this was a fairly quiet day compared to those when the girls were still living at home.  I actually miss all the running around - I think I'm designed for it.
