I really need to buy a new…

1. Phone. Big crack in the screen. Been living with it for months now.
2. Blender. Ours just died.
3. Car. Mine’s still okay but it’s old and has a lot of miles. I should replace it before it breaks down.
4. Hot water heater. It’s 20 years old, and scheduled to blow any day now.
5. Tablet. Mine got fried by the FalseGuide virus through Google Play.
6. Blender also. Ours died when I was making hummus.
7. Hardwood floor refinishing. It’s been 15 years and it’s really beginning to show its age.
8. Dishwasher. That’s dead too. Fortunately it’s only me and da wife at home, and we don’t go through dishes that quickly.
9. Bathroom sink, toilet, flooring. We have an older house and the 1/2 bath, from 1970, has only minor updates (new paint, lighting, medicine cabinet)
10. Master bathroom remodel. It’s overdue. Oh boy do we have a few things on this list!
11. Desk. Now that I’m working at home, the one I have now is really inadequate.

I know it’s a bit past its sell-by date, but what the hell, it should be immortalized here:

4. Going to church, then we’re helping to paint the youth room there. Lunch will be provided. Then my wife and I are going for a nice, long walk. Later, two people should be coming over to pick up some items I posted on Freecycle. Then, some house cleaning, some straightening up. And then we’ll watch Game 2 of the NBA Finals, Cavaliers at Warriors. GO WARRIORS!!!
