Set up items - Pre-plan

1/20/2014.  i've just finished entering most of the items into my Remember the Milk app.  planning out items that require monthly or long term planning, as well as scheduling the majority of the items, so I am not overwhelmed with a lot at the end.  I hope this will allow me to complete more than the 55% I completed last time.

Unplugged

During our trip, he didn't check work email.  We did use wifi though, and watched TV.  I don't know if we would really be able to totally disconnect, because of our kids though.

New Refrigerator, New Microwave

We got our new refrigerator on October 15th and microwave today.  And because we were good deal shoppers when the ad for came after we bought the refrigerator, we got a refund and a longer payment plan!

Our old microwave had to be held closed to run, so while we could probably have fixed it (and likely the person I free-cycled it to will do so) we decided it was a good time to get a new matching one, since Abt was having their customer appreciation sale.
