I won’t get started on my thoughts about daylight savings time. Doesn’t do any good to bitch about the stupidity of thinking you can increase the hours of daylight by rearranging the clock. Sometimes the thinking power of humans amazes me in not a good way!
Got my bedroom finished up decluttering today. Also finished up the living room and the kitchen. Went through the drawer full of warranty and instruction booklets and sorted out the ones I will need to take and the ones that remain with the house. Have eight more boxes ready to go to town but my car is full so they will have to wait until I take the load I have in my car now. Hope to do that tomorrow.
The EFIS guys were here at 8:00. I was still in bed but heard them and got up in case they needed something from me. They waved at me through the window but I haven’t talked to them today. They are finishing up the east side and doing the top of the house and the north side today. They haven’t gotten to the west side yet so doubting that they will finish up today. They will need at least one more day if not two. Maybe by the end of next weekend they will be finished.
They had to take down the internet receiver. Trusting they will be able to replace it and it will work without having to call out the service guy. I’m using cellular data to get on the internet this afternoon. Good thing there isn’t a football game on that I wanted to watch.
Think I will bake a batch of cookies and share with the crew for their afternoon coffee break time. They left for an hour for lunch and went somewhere to eat. They usually stop around 3:00 or so and take a 15 minute afternoon coffee break.
It is a beautiful day on the prairie today. It has reached the mid 60’s today. We have some wind but not too brisk. The guys are enjoying the warmer day we are having.
Got a bit more sleep last night than I have been getting but still feeling a bit tired this afternoon. I am so far in sleep debt that it would take several weeks of good sleep to get me out of this hole. Maybe last night was the start of a new way of sleeping for me. I was up and down quite a bit last night but did manage to get more sleep than I have been getting.
I have to be in town at 9:00 in the morning to do taxes. I have exercise at 3:00 and then another tax shift at 5:00. I will come home in between taxes and exercise but will stay in town between exercise and my second tax shift. I can find something to do for an hour or so. It will be a long day though. I’m working tomorrow for one of the ladies that needed to take care of some family business.
Thinking about driving to OK or TX to see the solar eclipse in April. I want to go to a place that will be 100% in the path of the eclipse. It is about a six hour drive to the two places I am thinking about so might make it an overnight trip. Driving over 12 hours in one day doesn’t sound like too much fun. Anyone want to ride along?
I remember when I hired a bus and took 15 friends with me to celebrate my birthday several years ago. We went to Atchinson to the Abbey to view the eclipse. It was a rainy day but we had so much fun.
I realized yesterday that I have become too focused on moving and am forgetting to stop and smell the roses and take some time for fun. I am almost done with the decluttering project. Only have the garage as my last big project and then some rooms downstairs. Waiting on someone to come visit us for a long weekend before I can finish up downstairs. I need to take some time to relax and catch my breath before the big move.
Sitting in gratefulness that the EFIS project is about 70% done. One more weekend and that can get crossed off my list. Then the guttering guys can come and finish the hail restoration project up. With the booster pump fixed that will complete my list of things I was responsible to fix before the sell. Yay! I will be even more grateful when I get the last payout from the insurance guy for the deck and guttering.
In a bit of a dark head space today. Not sure what that is about yet. I think I need to take a step back from all that is happening and allow all parts of my body to catch up with each other. Hard to keep myself in balance and in sync.
Grateful for the movement on the EFIS project this weekend, grateful the giant decluttering project is well underway, and grateful I know what I need to do to take better care of myself.
