I finally had a productive day today. I got one bedroom and bathroom plus a hallway cleaned downstairs today. I hand mopped the floors and washed the woodwork. May get one more room done tonight yet. Feels good to have the deep house cleaning started.
Went into Emporia this afternoon to get some groceries for next week. I stopped by to see Ellexia. She proudly showed me the medals she had won at her gymnastics meet that was held while I was gone. I think she has grown two inches since I saw her last.
The smoke is thick in the air tonight. Several ranchers are burning pastures around my house. My house smells like there is a bonfire burning inside. I would like to have a window open but that would defeat my cleaning really quickly. It has been cloudy and cool today. I am ready for spring to return to the prairie again at least for a day or two.
I need to move some beds to make the room arrangements work better for the guests that are coming the next three bookings. I got the twin bed out of a room and another one out of the closet and they are sitting in front of the room they need to go in. I looked at the double bed but it is too big and heavy for me to move alone. Hopefully I will remember to have my Match guy help me move them when he is here tomorrow.
The chickens are only giving me two or three eggs a day. I had to break down and buy some store-bought eggs so I could have some hard-boiled eggs. I trust when it warms up and stays warm the slackers will get down to business and give me more eggs. They aren’t earning their keep at this rate.
I’m excited my Match guy is coming tomorrow late afternoon. The only hard part of our relationship is the distance between us. He is staying until Wednesday and then we won’t see each other for two weeks as I have to stay close due to the Disc Golf guys that are coming in the day after Easter. It will be weird to have guests again. I haven’t had any for a long time.
My music has played all day so maybe my internet problem is fixed. It hasn’t been staying on lately. I still don’t have my new keyboard for my iPad working. I forgot to take it to town with me to have Tim look at it. I’ll have to google it and see if I can find instructions. I can’t seem to get it to connect via Bluetooth.
Still feeling a bit restless tonight. Moving my body while cleaning helped a bit but am still aware of it. I have had trouble settling since I came home from my trip. I feel grounded but restless. I’m curious as to what is behind this feeling. I can’t quite put my finger on it yet.
Grateful the deep cleaning has begun, grateful my Match guy is coming tomorrow, and grateful I got to see Ellexia and her parents today.
