Wow, what a weekend! Still not as ambitious as FCM. Dang woman, how do you find all that energy? I still haven’t made the valances for our curtains we hung about a month ago!
But…
Yesterday:
We dropped off a couch and overstuffed chair at Goodwill, on the way to my dad’s to decide what will stay and what will go of his stuff, when he moves in. We stopped off at the Depot first to get paint swatches for him to pick a color for his room. Heavenly Blue was his choice, very pretty. He’s not bringing too much, but we are converting two rooms for him into his bedroom and a study.
Then we checked out a storage place for all the crap we have to move out, but want to sell in a garage sale.
Then we went the furniture store and bought an entertainment center. It is massive! Absolutely gorgeous. We also got a cool headboard and new nightstand for dad. His nightstand was so old, I remember it from when I was a kid. 40 years ago?? Good Lord. It was missing handles and everything.
So we (stupidly) picked up the furniture and set it up ourselves. We almost dropped one of the extremely heavy piers, but both our backs are ok, thank God. We had no idea they weighed that much. I told Tom we are never moving those again. I’ll post pics after it is all set up. Tom is still working on it today.
I took the dog to the vet today, and his ear infection is all cleared up. Yay! I also took our new dog Lucy for a walk, during which she nearly ripped my arm out of its socket when she started chasing a squirrel.
I also did 3 loads of laundry, 3 days worth of dishes (:eek:), and meal-planned and grocery shopped. In a few minutes, I’m going to go assemble and put in the oven a lasagna made from leftover skettie sauce.
Oh yeah, I heard from my brother in Denver today. He’s coming to visit around the end of April, when Dad is moving in. So we’ll have an extra pair of hands.
I’m too old for all this moving. I’m never moving again. Except my office. Tomorrow.
