LAST NIGHT, I MOVED QUITE A FEW STORAGE BOXES and stacked them in the upstairs hallway. Woke with sore fingers this morning and arthritic hands. Keep moving. Keep in motion.
As today passes by, I will carefully carry them down the stairs to the Kitchen and stack them, take a breather then carry them to the cars to transport them over to the COTTAGE this evening to unload and repack in the Living room. I'll need hubby's muscles to help me get this done.
There they will stay until the storage side of the garage is cleared out. Muscle racks will go in there and then the Christmas decor will have a place to call HOME again. Seems like I have moved decorations so many times that I am plum tired of it. Spank my attitude and get this done without thinking so much about it. Just do it.
Today is my oldest son's 47th Birthday. Pause. Happy Birthday tall guy. I love you and know that you are a blessing.
I have plans of cutting out newspaper articles today and getting them in the mail tomorrow. I need to get the Father's Day greeting cards in the mail. I should have done that yesterday, but I was too busy. It seems that I need to do things far in advance to get everything done these days. Time passes by so much quicker and I move so much slower. The two don't seem to be friends.
I found another large box of papers to go through and shred tomorrow. I'll work on it tomorrow.
My studies this morning led me to look at Victorian interiors of small houses. Gathering ideas for the COTTAGE. I simply have too much to have it all in the COTTAGE. I have to continue to downsize. Shaking my head and sighing. This puzzle will come together.
Company is coming for the Fourth of July so I must get the boxes out of the Victorian room and transfer it all to the COTTAGE so we can accommodate. This is a great time to get this done. Praise the Lord, I have a heads up and two weeks to get 'er done.
Will need to have a menu worked up so I can supply our food needs. Ice-cream, brownies, chips, baked beans, hot dogs, hamburgers, the fixings, water, cereal, eggs, toast, butter, jelly, salads, relish tray, lemonade, cherry lime-aid, iced tea, coffee, creamer, sugar, sweeteners, pie, roast, potatoes, carrots, green beans, fried chicken, beets, deviled eggs, asparagus, cauliflower, broccoli, keep thinking about it.
I have a new recipe for Cherry Limeade that I want to try out. My HOMEMADE LEMONADE is perfect. These might be nice to have on hand when we have company. I have the canisters for these beverages. Okay that's settled.
CHERRY LIMEADE
Serve in a pitcher or pour into a canister.
