A LOAD OF OLD BLUE JEANS ARE IN THE WASHING MACHINE AS I TYPE. Soon they will go into the dryer with another load going in to wash. Blessed to have machines at HOME. Though I dislike being so far behind on the laundry, I am blessed to have machines. PTL.
I really like starting the day by waking up to sunshine, morning toilet visit, load the machine with laundry, take my morning meds then go for a mile walk. Cooling off in the recliner and studying what I need to get done for the day. Bills written out and mailed or hand delivered. Breakfast made and lunch decided upon. MORNING DEVOTIONS. More laundry and then blogging. This is an ideal way for me to start the day off leaning into the LUNCH HOUR. Chores done and time to relax before meal time.
I just ate a tuna fish sandwich. Twas good. I'm cooling off from my mile walk in the wind. It felt so good to walk with a breeze blowing. Really nice. I was alone at the track and could chat with GOD out loud. HE knows I need this.
With time to think, I go over things in my head that I'd like to get done around the house. As I drove HOME from walking the track, I saw a white vinyl fence for someone's back yard and I think my HUBBY is correct that we don't want a vinyl fence. They need scrubbed because mildew grows on them losing the new look. When the time comes for our backyard fence, I think we'll go with cedar. When we get to this place then I suppose we will be even OLDER than OLD.
Thinking about what to fix for a SUPPER. Perhaps we'll have BREAKFAST.
CHORES. I have a load of towels laying on the sofa that need folded and put away. I started digging through boxes in the front bedroom finding a nice pair of slip on tennis shoes that I can wear to exercise class. I truly forgot that I had these and they are clean as clean can be. Nice find along with a cute patriotic handbag and some rubber boots. Score.
If I clear away all the stuff that's on the left side of the room and scoot the cedar chest to the center of the room then the wall will be freed up to scoot the vanity over there that will eventually go into the other bedroom. A resting place for now as the other room is in no shape to have the vanity in there yet. Anywho, the cedar chest can then be scooted to its new location where the vanity was to hold the TV on it. Yahoo when I get this far.
YAHOO. I'm getting there.
I made progress on the front bedroom last night. I managed to scoot the cedar chest over in front of a Victorian Dresser making the floor space needed for the 1930 vanity to rest in until the other bedroom is dealt with after this front room is more in place. Does that make sense. I felt like SUPERMAN getting this much done. I had to dig it out from boxes blocking it in. Got that done. I tried in VAIN to get the vanity moved over to the temporary spot. It would not budge. It was like it was glued to the floor. Asked Hubs to help me in the morning.
TODAY. Tried several times to scoot it again with no luck. Glued to the floor. No budging at all. TIS MORNING and we worked to move the vanity. Heave HO. Nothing. Again and again and again and again. SUPERMAN, where are ya? She budged and slowly we got 'er moved. Finally she rolled across the floor to the wall.
Exhale and go sit down. Sipping HOT HIBISCUS TEA. Exhale some more. I will rest a bit then get started on the POT ROAST for our supper. Somewhere in here I will go for my walk. Laundry is in and more to do. Off and on I will work on the front room as it is hoardersville motif. Dear Lord, please give me strength to continue on this task. In Jesus name I pray. AMEN.
From last week when peeking into the abyss, I CAN TELL I HAVE MADE A DENT. Only a small dent though. This puts the desire in me to be a minimalist. I have a TO LET GO pile. Yes. I will let more go. Have to and want to. This move into the fixer upper is an ongoing process even with having lived here for two years. 2 years!!! My eyes are bugging out.
Superman needs to check in again and do the magic needed to get this room cleared and cleaned out. Order here you come.
