Swept, vacuumed and hand washed the livingroom, and then we put down the newly cleaned carpet. Note that the IKEA poang chair is not permanent. There are two other patio chairs we will use while company is here, but we should be able to provide seats for everyone.
We got the guest bed moved down today.
We are not moving the dressers right now. We can do that later when life resumes its normal pace. I got all the bedding washed and popped back on the bed.
We also moved the Hoosier into the pantry. It will be used to store the appliances I don't want to leave on the counter.
It was another hard day for both of us, but we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
For Northsider Dave, who I have been disappointing for some time now.
I need to set my tomato cages, but that, my friend, is a 4 foot by 8 foot raised bed of tomatoes, and it looks like it is going to be a bumper year for them.
Cucumbers have mucho blossoms. Peppers looking good, all except for one that looks like, for whatever reason, the bugs love him to the point that they're ignoring the rest of the peppers, and I'm kind of okay with that, really. There is a double row of onions between the peppers and the cucumbers, and I'm trying to train the cucumbers to go up the trellis instead of across the bed to the onions and peppers.
Tomorrow, we will move our bed down to the new house. Between the camper and the house, we have enough room to accommodate everyone. I hope that it is an enjoyable weekend for everyone. Monday, I will be heading back with 3 grandchildren for a week away. I will babysit while everyone travels to an adults only wedding, and I'm looking forward to that. Having all of them, all at once, is not a common occurrence. This means I'll be pretty quiet for the next week.
Enjoy your break! 😀
Steve Reed: the podcast I listened to was Crime Junkie on Pandora. Infamous: University of Idaho Murders. There are other podcasts on Spotify and on Iheart radio that looked to be interesting, but I tend to stick with what I have on my phone. Something interesting though is that Bryan Kohberger is an incel. I did not know that, and it provides a possible motive.
Looking good inside, and with the outside being very productive.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a smooth move and a joyful time with the grand kids. You’ve totally earned that quiet week ahead
ReplyDeletecheeerssssssssss
It's looking like home. A week with the grands should be somewhat of a rest for you. Or a different kind of busy.
ReplyDeleteIt should be a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteHad to look up incel. A word unfamiliar but now clear.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the family gathering will be a success.
Your house is looking wonderful, ready to get on with your lives in it.
ReplyDeleteLove the photos. You guys do good work.
ReplyDeleteMy crime podcast club at the library uses Crime Junkie as one of our sources.
