I'm going to concentrate on doing laundry today. I also need to pick any green beans that the chipmunks have left for me. And, I need to pick blueberries. These are my goals for today. However...the UPS guy delivered a couple of books yesterday and they're just sitting there tempting me. It's hard to resist temptation when my energy quotient is at its current level.
