WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY I HAD!
My morning was taken up by going through boxes.
Making headway as I grouped many boxes and washed some dishes. Hoping to go through another bunch of boxes by the bookshelves tomorrow. When I have gone through these then I will return to the Dining room boxes and unwrap the items taking inventory.
THEN I'll return them to the box
until our wood furniture returns to us.
I went for a drive to get a cold beverage. Sweet memories came to mind. I went past a lemonade stand where a mom was supervising two young girls. I couldn't help myself. I had to buy some lemonade. 50 cents a large cup was a bargain. COLD and refreshing.
OFF TO THE LAUNDRY MAT I went. More smokey items were washed in the large capacity washing machine. I SMILED really big when the items came out smelling fresh. Some things still have smoke stains so these will be dyed later on as I can get to them.
This evening I will be boxing up books at RETIREMENT COTTAGE to move to our new location. We now have large book shelves in the Living room. LOVE THIS FEATURE.
SO many of my books were ruined. It's a continuing thing though. I don't tire of books and I bought two more from the THRIFT Store. One about TEDDY BEARS and another about Diabetic meals. Always a reader.
Going back and forth between the new location and RETIREMENT COTTAGE has been challenging, but somebody has got to do it. THIS IS MY SUMMER JOB, Hobby and newest past time. I am so in hopes that we will be settled by the end of SUMMER just in time for HARVEST and cooler weather.
I sat on the church pew earlier today and stared out the Dining room windows trying to imagine what snow will look like across the street covering the house on the corner. We will be in a new location this year. As I was opening box after box, CHRISTMAS ornaments were waiting inside which made me think about having a extra tall and full Christmas tree in front of the window.
Soon the new Kitchen will be functioning as a KITCHEN.
So much to do.
May we all have a pleasant week-end.
All the best to you.
Praying,
