A busy morning and then off I go

I am having a busy morning. Since I don't have to leave the house until mid-morning I have been puttering around trying to get a few last minute things done. I cut up a watermelon, neatened and swept the back porch, did a load of laundry, vacuumed the house, changed the cat litter, and made chicken soup so far. I think I must be a bit more jumpy about this procedure than I thought. It' not a big deal by any means but I'll be glad when this part is over with and I can take advantage of all this prep work by sitting around and watching brainless judge shows on TV.
