Thought I would do one
more update on the Pre-Baby/Unemployment Bucket List before Bimmer actually
arrives. In general, I got most of the stuff finished, or at least mostly
accomplished. Could I have gotten it ALL finished? Sure. But there were
depressing days where staying in bed under the covers just sounded a lot more
realistic. All told, I'm happy with what I got done and consider it a victory.
Even if I still don't know how to use I-Tunes! (This round of updates are in blue!)
