Should vs. Am

Here are the things I should do today:

• fold laundry from last week
• wash and fold the laundry from this week
• clean my fridge
• eat leftovers
• cook something nice
• sweep the kitchen/hallway/bathroom/my bedroom
  
• vacuum the living room and stairway
• look at housing ads online to get an idea of price in preparation for the possibility of moving
• update my budget
• deposit a cheque that's been in my wallet for two weeks in the bank
• wash the sheets on my bed
• go for a walk
  

Here are the things I'm definitely going to do today:

• hang out with my baby brother before he leaves for two weeks or so on choir tour
• take a long, hot bath with nicely scented stuff in the water and lose myself in a novel
  
• catch up on some journaling
• read a bit more of my second time through Sara Miles' "Take This Bread"
• play Jason Upton very loudly in my house
• pray as I do laundry, and clean, and eat and walk and hang with my brother and possibly a friend
  
• eat some of the tea biscuits I purchased at the grocery store the other night
• do something creative (maybe make some cards, or clipping for future collage projects)
• Eat leftover chicken, couscous, asparagus and carrots from the other night.

Okay... I'm off to start my day! With some relaxation! Later!
