Sunday, 11 a.m.

Although the pallets are slightly blocking the view into the garage.  It’s pretty obvious that we got rid a of a lot of stuff at the garage sale yesterday.  And with 1½ hours of intense reorganizing and throwing away empty boxes, we got to a space where there are two paths into the garage.  Thanks Al!  It’s so much more pleasant to look at the garage and a lot less overwhelming.  I have the habit of keeping the original box that something like an appliance or electronic comes in.  It’s stems from moving a lot and it’s easier to pack it back into the box it came from when you move.  We threw out probably 8 empty boxes today.  I guess I finally realized that we don’t plan to move for awhile.  Strange to think we’ve almost lived in our house for five years!

I was feeling even better after we returned some items at Costco.  Then we got to my mom’s house and I reassessed the kitchen and started getting overwhelmed again.  Particularly when I start to think about clearing all the furniture out by the end of next weekend.  If we want to get the place painted before flooring and cabinets come in.  Aieeeeeeee!

Really wanted a day during the long weekend where I didn’t do anything with the condo.  I thought tomorrow as going to be it.  We’re getting massages in the morning. 90 minute massages.  But I think the reality is that we need to take another trip out.

an unfavorable forecast

I pray there’s no rain so I can sell more furniture (someone is waiting for it to stop – so they can pick up – 2-3 pieces) and so that I can move boxes without getting them wet.

Oh good.  I just checked and it’s 100% chance of precipitation.
