I am so exhausted I am having 2 days off. The drier was collected this morning. The dish washer disconnected last night, so thats everything disposed of apart from a few bits out of the garden. I need to bring the plants round that I am taking round to the front, so they do not get left behiind. I have one more trip to the tip with a picnic table and chairs plus a couple of other bits, will go Monday morning, that seems to be a less busy day.
I cooked a gammon joint yesterday, so will slice it this afternoon, salad for supper tonight and will keep back a couple of slices for Sunday, the rest will go in the freezer.
Its a bit of a funny day, sun keeps coming and going. A slight breeze, so hopefully not too hot. I am not taking DB again when I go to the flat, yesterday I took him and had to bring him back before I had finished sorting stuff out. He was complaining about chest pain. When ever he gets worked up he gets chest pain, its in the wrong place for a heart attack, so 2 pain killers and a snooze later, and he was ok.
Chap collected the dryer this morning is an odd job man, so he will put shelves and the curtain rail up for me once we get settled........a good job out of the way.
21st of August the linen cupboard and a console table will be delivered, everything will be ok then, we can just settle down and start 'living' again in the knowledge that until Edwin shuffles off this earth we will not move again.
Gammon and salad tonight, might make oranges in jelly for dessert.
A well deserved 2 days off for you!
ReplyDeleteSo glad that you've found a home for most of the items that aren't going to the flat. Wonder if that picnic table and the chairs might be offered for free to the delight of someone or more than one someone?
Yes, it's wise that DB stay home until the move even if he'd prefer to go along. Nice when the location of symptoms don't match a heart attack!
We had a gentle rain for most of yesterday and it amounted to nearly an inch of rain. Today will be a little warmer but the humidity is high so will feel even warmer.
I'm about to sew the last 8 SIC blocks onto their neighbors to the left, then will begin to sew the pairs into two up and two down. It's the last chance to move blocks around but am not going to even think about doing that. Machine pedal down and onward!
I have laundry to take next door and hope to get sheets from there.
Sadly, have had news this morning that my Aussie quilting sister is in stage 6 of Alzheimers and her dear hubby is in the last weeks of life due to cancer. Their daughter emailed me. We "met" in 1997 and for real at the Paducah Quilt show in 1999. I will miss Jan.
Hugs!
