ON TUESDAY I HAD VERY LITTLE ENERGY so I stayed HOME and rested the entire day. SO much coughing. Made an appointment with my doctor. Saw the PHYSICIAN'S ASSISTANT on Wednesday, because the doc was off. I do like this her as I have seen her before and she is very thorough. The cough and mucus seemed to be getting worse. More meds. Hope they do the job and I get to feeling better. Amen.
Hubby had an appointment as well. Both of us are coughing way to much. We're a pair. Praying that our health return. This has been rough. I just couldn't shake off this coughing dilemma.
Afterwards we ate lunch, went HOME and carried the body of the chest of drawers down the stairs to be loaded into the back of our little cruiser. Drove the distance and unloaded her into the COTTAGE. As we were carrying her into the COTTAGE I said that I had waited for months for this moment.
She's sitting in the pink room. Love it. I will have to figure a different room arrangement though as when the bed sits in the room there will not be enough floor space for where I thought the chest would go. I stayed at the COTTAGE to work on laundry as Hubby paid the taxes on the COTTAGE and went HOME to work on the main house lawn.
Before I left to go HOME, I went outside to view the Irises that have bloomed. They are so beautiful. Took a few pics on my phone and will have to figure out how to send the pics to my computer so I can post the pics. I'll need to mark the Irises while they are in bloom so I can do some rearranging of the bulbs in July. There is flower bed cleaning I need to do, but have been too busy and sick to get to as of yet. The beds will just have to look sad until we get further along with the move.
My dear Husband fixed supper for us as I came HOME late. Turkey patties and squash, zucchini, onion and my all time favorite KETCH-UP. Water to drink. It was very filling. To keep in the spirit of things all Martha Mitchell, we watched a 40 minute documentary about her, THE MARTHA MITCHELL EFFECT. Found it to be very interesting.
Remembering Martha as being very talkative and very open about the White House HAPPENINGS. MARTHA WAS RIGHT.
I was reading up on Nixon and he was known to beat on his wife, Pat Nixon. Black eye. This was hidden as well. One incident when he lost an election and another after he left the White House. sigh. A well hidden secret.
The vanity is next to go to the COTTAGE so I carried the drawers downstairs. The mirror will have to be taken off this piece meaning two trips will be needed to get this lovely piece into the bedroom. If we can take a piece of furniture over to the COTTAGE each day, within a week the two bedroom suites would be there except for the mattresses and boxes which will have to be hauled over in a borrowed truck. Not bad for two old elderly peeps.
Then the walnut chest, the Victorian sofa, the Victorian Gentlemen's Dresser, the Victorian bed. The small COTTAGE garage will need cleaned before boxes are placed in there for safe keeping until we are ready to put them in the COTTAGE. Getting these out of the house will help. My Doll Collection needs thinned out. Our clothing needs thinned out and wood hangers bought to hang our coats and jackets on. I'll start taking some clothing over to hang in the closet. The bedding in the linen closet will go soon. Making progress a little at a time. Tis slow, but this is the best we can do with all that needs to be taken care of. It's the best way to move at our age when we are doing this all by ourselves. THANKFUL we can do this.
