cathyw: Gromit pouring tea (Default)
currently torn between "you do not get a cookie for doing the stuff you're supposed to be doing" and (in [personal profile] lunarriviera's words) "only positive reinforcement teaches new behavior".

must consider the sources: "no cookie" = brain weasels; "positive reinforcement" = the best dog in the known universe.

I will have the cookie.
cathyw: Wallace sawing, using Gromit as a sawhorse (DIY)
- Took all the stuff from the 'take this to the thrift store' pile to the thrift store. (Did not successfully take Styrofoam, Plastic Bags, and Cardboard to the recycling center or Full Sharps Containers to the home toxics dropoff.)

- Assembled the chipper-shredder that has been languishing in a box since last summer. Chipped and/or shredded some branches with it. Still have so many more branches...

- Got a piece of plexiglass for an odd-sized picture frame and the proper implement for cutting it to that odd size, to replace the piece of plexiglass that I screwed up trying to cut with an improper implement. (That one wasn't even on my list!)

Still need to:
- Test the condition of the other chairs that match the No Longer A Chair I used at my desk for so long, to verify whether or not they are sittable, and call for a Bulky Item Pickup for the non-sittable ones and a couple other items.

- Weed paperbacks off the bookshelves, to make space for more paperbacks. Hopefully the Friends of the Library will accept paperback fantasy/scifi from the '90s and early '00s?

- Try again to take Styrofoam, Plastic Bags, and Cardboard to the recycling center and Full Sharps Containers to the home toxics dropoff

- probably a million things I haven't thought of yet
