I spent most of yesterday reorganizing and freeing
up some space in Ody. I pulled the extra pillows from the bed and filled the
shams with miscellaneous fabric items. I put the rest of the sheets and Jake's
quilt under the mattress and my two spare fuzzy blankets on top of the mattress
- under the top quilt. That in itself freed up two bins or more. I also sorted
the two bins of clothes down to one. I actually made quite a bit of room.
The
new kennel came and I got that set up and installed. I might still have room for
the AC, but I am second guessing my decision to buy it at this point. I may just
try to sell it, and if it doesn't sell, load it up.
I also got the last of the outdoor stuff and butane
and gel fuel into a bin and into the outside storage compartment. I actually got
quite a bit accomplished. The new shower head came, I installed that and the
suction cup soap dishes, and the waterproof camera came and I played with that
for a little while. It actually came with an 8g SD card in it, not sure if that
was supposed to or not, but I am not complaining. I ordered a 32g for it that
will be here later, but the smaller one at least allows me to use it. Seems like
a nice little camera and comes with a neck strap like the big cameras do instead
of a wrist strap like most of the smaller cameras. It should be very handy. Got
my dry bag for my phone too. It actually works thru the bag. Go figure. I just
ordered a couple of floating glasses straps. That was another thing I was afraid
of dropping while on the water, my prescription sunglasses. That would really
suck.
Albert came over and started removing screws from
the courtyard fence. So I guess that will be gone by today or tomorrow. And they
cleaned up the mess next door by the fence yesterday, so I don't
have to look at a bunch of pallets and trash. Yay. :) They have it all stacked
over in the back corner, so I guess that is what I will do here. Let the dozer
take care of it.
I think I am just about ready to finish moving the
kitchen stuff into Ody. I fixed all three meals out there yesterday. I didn't
cook, had leftover burger for a salad last night, nachos for lunch. Although I
am still using the ice machine and the toaster oven, but those can be last
minute loads. Plus, I have this computer and the internet connection in here.
Those will be very last minute.
If, down the road I do decide to get a little
trailer, I would move all the craft and jewelry stuff out and have at least one
of the bunks back. Then I could move my bed back and have a kitchen table again.
I didn't think I would miss it, but now that I am in there, I kinda do. But
either way, yesterday's work improved the situation. I will probably be
arranging and rearranging for a while.
I had more energy and felt a little better
yesterday. Maybe I had a mild bug of some sort. I still have issues with
motivation and ambition, but I do what needs to be done and I think I will be
ready when the time comes. I did sleep a little better last night since it was
cooler.
Iola will be here to start digging perennials in a
little while, then I am going to her place for the afternoon and dinner. UPS
tried to pick up the cat kennel I am returning, but they were early, and I didn't
even know they had been here until I came back to the building. :( So I need to
stick around for that to make sure they get it today. Hopefully they will be
early today too. But most likely because I want them to, they won't. In which
case, I will have to go looking for them.
I haven't been to the post office
since Thursday and I need to put some gas in the car before I go anywhere. The
only other thing I would like to get done is get the washer and dryer posted for
sale. I can find someone in the next week or so that will let me use their
washer and dryer, and since I still have the car, that makes that much easier.
Definite progress, and I feel like I just might meet the deadline. Was wondering there for a while. The extra week does help.
