Time Flies Like An Arrow ...

... fruit flies like a banana.
- Groucho Marx

Politicians are judged by their first 100 days in office. (Right, wrong, or otherwise.) Using that as my measuring guide, here's a list - probably incomplete - of what I've accomplished in under 50 days in my new home:
Stripped the outward door locks to allow for the porch door to operate better.
Stripped the inner door locks to allow for the inner door to operate better.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a new bed and frame.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a new sofa. (It's VERY comfortable.)
Shopped for, purchased, took delivery of, and put together a new kitchen table and chairs.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a new kitchen pantry piece.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a kitchen rolling drop-leaf cabinet.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of two new side bedroom tables.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a new 5-drawer dresser for the bedroom.
Shopped for, purchased, and took delivery of a corner TV stand for the bedroom.
Replaced the outlet plates throughout the house.
Replaced the light switch plates throughout the house.
Arranged for the replumbing of the bathroom fixtures and the kitchen (which, sadly, needs to be revisited because the bathtub still "gurgles".)
Shopped for, purchased, took delivery of, and put together three (wickedly heavy) bookcases.
Began to install new doorknobs in the interior of my home. (Yes, I'm still on "began". I've run into another snag - the striker plate screws are too close together for the original door so I need to figure out an extender idea.)
******************
This list is for my next "geez, I haven't done a damn thing since I've been here" day. Those days tend to be when my "what I need to still do" list seems to grow and the "what I've done" list seems to shrink.

Now I'm gonna go get a hot chocolate, sit on my new sofa, and read for a bit. Because, as Groucho also said, "outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read."
