Day 141

Day 141

Frisday, August 15, 2014

And yet again, waking up at 4:15.  No wonder I can barely make it through the day.  And worse, there’s nothing on TV but informercials on Saturday morning.

I tried really hard to keep busy; but I have to admit, the stairs nearly defeated me.  But I did managed to make a dent in one pile of things near the door at least.  And almost nothing of it “stays”.    I also got the things  to go to storage neater, and packed most of the random things. 

But the house is still a bit of a disaster.  I had thought once the yardsale stuff was gone it would be better.  Well, the back room is .. but now the den is a complete disaster.  The biggest problem with that is that I still have a lot to go through from upstairs, and there’s nowhere for it to be until pick up.

Late in the afternoon TGF picked me up (when she got off work) and we barely got to the storage pplace in time to secure my unit.  The guy there was a bit snippy when she called to let him know we were on the way; but he was nice when wwe got there.  However, it was after closing by the time he got the paperwork printed and signed.  He didn’t want to take time to go down to the unit, promised someone would take their lock off today.  I can go by tomorrow since we’re supposed to go to town anyway.

We made a stop at Wal-Mart (bubble wrap!!), and it was nearly 8:00 before I got home. 

I still haven’t heard back from the people who bought the table; I hope they don’t expect their money back at this late date … if so, they’d have to wait until I could resell the table.  TGF is going to try to contact the lady on FB since my phone message has not been answered. 

I also never heard from DN, which surprised me.  I thought she’d let me know she’d paid the rent and all and picked up the keys.  As far as I know today is her moving day.

My SIL called yesterday morning, and I had a nice conversation with her.  I emailed a bit with DIL, don’t know yet if she’ll be able to come later today as planned.  It depends on her health, always a little “iffy”.  So for the most part, I guess today will be just trying to get more pacing done.  I think I need to go work in the kitchen a bit .. it’s really getting on my nerves now.  There’s very ittle in there I can’t do without for the next week.

I feel like I got a lot done yesterday, but not enough of it “shows”.  Then I wake so early, and can’t stop thinking about so much to get done.  I’ve not had enough sleep I guess.  I get into panic mode, and get all weepy, and that’s just not a good way to be starting the day.  I think I need to go see if I can get a little bit more of a nap.
