30 days and counting until the move. Yikes! It is starting to feel real.
Went to Emporia this morning to do taxes. I did four or five returns today and reviewed two others. Not much down time this morning doing taxes.
Went to exercise at noon. Our session this week is 50 minutes which is the longest one I have had so far. We used the resistance bands and I felt like I got a good workout this time. The trainer helps make the time go by quickly.
Came home afterwards. I was going to stop for lunch but I felt something telling me to get home.
I got about halfway home and got a phone call from the guy delivering the mower. He was almost to my house and wanted instructions for parking his semi. I got home just as he was turning the corner on my driveway.
He unload the mower. It is in pieces on a shipping flat. I will have Jason help me figure out how to put it together and get it running.
While I was doing taxes the guttering guys called me with a question. They showed up this morning to complete that project. I had no idea how to answer his question and finally told him to act like it was his house and fix it how he would if it was his. They finished up about an hour after I got home. What they did looks good to me. I never know if they do a good job or not on things like that.
That means the Hail Restoration Project is done! What a relief. The only thing left to do is to get the funds to pay the guttering team and I can cross that whole project off my pending list.
After I got those guys all sorted out when I got home I took a nap. I didn’t want to wake up this morning when my alarm went off and I was still tired. It is a lightly raining type of day on the prairie and a good day to take a nap.
When I was napping I would hear a weird sound every once in a while. Hadn’t heard that sound before but was too tired to get up to see what it was. When I went to the bathroom after I had gotten up, I noticed the wind had blown the roll of toilet paper and had unrolled the whole thing. That was the sound I had been hearing. Looks like an April Fools prank a kid would pull but it was for real.
Tomorrow I have to go to town for a haircut. It stresses me out to try to time a haircut after exercise or taxes as I never know if I can get there on time or not. Decided I would rather make one more trip to town and eliminate that stress. I need a few groceries this week so will stop and get those after my haircut.
So far most of the rain has gone east of us. We have only had light sprinkles today. Dang! We need rain badly. There is still a chance we will get some later tonight and into tomorrow so I am crossing my toes and fingers it comes my way. I may not get to test out my new mower if we don’t get some rain soon.
Sitting in a good place this afternoon finally feeling more rested. It feels so good to have the guttering replaced and the hail restoration project completed. I can do hard things! The house looks better outside now than it has for a long time. I feel like I am leaving it in good shape for the new buyers.
This week will go by quickly as I have to make six trips to town this week. I am almost close enough to moving day that I can start notifying utilities and getting things transferred. Need to start working on changing my address on bills, etc. Lots of little things that will need taken care of this month.
Grateful the guttering got replaced today, grateful the mower showed up, and grateful for a rainy day nap.
