Wrapping up August's list

Well, I worked on into September but I did make some progress on the last list. I'm sure I did other things (like visit Mom) but it's all a blur. It's time to re-new my motivation! Stay tuned for an update and a new list. In the meantime, here's how I did.

Call Mom Several times :)

Take trash & recyclables to the dump Done, but nearly time to go again
Drop off clothes to Salvation Army We're on a bit of a roll here, with another chore finished.
