I went to Emporia a little after noon today. Dropped by my insurance agent’s office to notify them I am selling this house, added content insurance at the house I am moving to, and gave them information on a rental property to get insurance. I trust this go around with him will go easy and we won’t have to try three times to get things right.
Dropped off a full car load at the Salvation Army. I had three boxes of books to drop off at the Friends of the Library but changed my mind. All of a sudden I have started reading again and decided I wanted to go through the boxes again to make sure I want to get rid of them. I have determined at this point that I have room for both book cases at the new house. I may have to get rid of the books but decided to wait to see how many I have room for.
Went to exercise. We did yoga today. I actually worked up a sweat for the first time during exercise. The video lasted 50 minutes today so will have no problem getting my 150 minutes in even without the home exercises I do on Tuesday and Thursdays. It always surprises me how good of a workout doing yoga is. My arms may be sore tomorrow as we worked them a lot today.
Stopped by Walmart and picked up a grocery order I had placed this morning. They were out of ice. I almost went inside to see if I could get a bag that way but decided against it. I will go to Strong City tomorrow and get some there.
I almost forgot to bring the groceries in when I got home. I did a few little things around the house when I got home and then settled down in my chair and all of a sudden remembered I hadn’t brought the groceries in. When I do an on-line order it is so easy I forget that I got groceries. Got up and brought everything in and put them away. I had extras today as I am having a big group for dinner tomorrow night and a couple over on Thursday for lunch.
I called my accountant to schedule a face-to-face meeting with her. She could have met with me next Tuesday but that is moving day. Her next available appointment is May 16. Guess things can wait till then.
Haven’t gotten any packing done today. I may get the laundry room packed yet tonight. I have a bunch of overflow cleaning supplies that I could box up as I won’t need them before we move. It won’t take long though so may wait to do that on packing day a week from today.
Tomorrow my friends are coming over for dinner so I will be in the kitchen for a bit tomorrow morning and again in the late afternoon. I’m fixing an easy menu so won’t have a lot of prep work to do. Have to figure out dishes and tables as I don’t have enough dishes to serve 11 and I only have table space for 8 now. No worries, I have plastic plates and card tables and folding chairs. I really do need to do a bit of cleaning before tomorrow night but it sure won’t be much.
Tomorrow is trash day so I need to go down to the barn and gather up the last of the trash that needs to go out. The camper is gone so now I can sweep up the floor where it used to sit and get rid of the last of the pile that was there. My trash can is already full from stuff from the garage I threw out. The trash man is going to have a huge pile to make go away Wednesday morning. I will have one last chance to throw things away the following Tuesday as that is my moving day.
Hard to believe I am a week away from moving day. A week from today is packing day and the actual moving day is a week from tomorrow. I will close on the sale on the following Friday. That gives me a couple days to get this house clean for the buyer.
The rest of this week is fairly open. I do have several things I need to make go away. I’ll probably take things to the Salvation Army as I am tired of Facebook Marketplace. I don’t have enough energy to manage that process. I have to go to town Wednesday for exercise and I will take another car load of things in then. I’ll probably find one more car load to take on Friday when I go in for exercise. I’m getting close to the end but I seem to keep finding things that are too good to throw out.
I am working on changing my address on lots of different accounts. Some are easier done than others. I’m sure that will be a year long process as it is hard to remember all the places that have a need to know. I’ll have to repeat all that when I move to my new – new house when it is built.
Sitting in a good head space today. I got over my down day yesterday and got a good night’s sleep and have felt good today. There really isn’t a lot that I can do right now as it is still a bit too early to get many things packed. I will do a small area everyday and wait until a week from today when I will pack everything.
Grateful for a good workout at exercise today, grateful a car full of stuff is gone, and grateful for a slow week ahead of me.
