We were back at it around 8:00 this morning. We loaded and brought over two pick-up loads and put the stuff in the basement of the new house. We went back to the old house after we did the second load and finished up the master bedroom. Nicole did a great job of sorting. She put lots more stuff in the donate or trash pile than the keep pile. I packed up a closet while she was sorting other things.
When we finished that room we went for breakfast and ran a few errands. Two of my friends had some egg cartons for me so we stopped and picked those up. We went to Target to pick up some cleaning supplies. We went back to the old house and Nicole finished sorting the dining room and garage while I started cleaning the kitchen. After we got too hot we loaded the pick-up with one more load and came back to the new house, unloaded it and called it good for the day. It is just too hot to work right now.
Nicole only has one more room to sort tomorrow and she has already gotten through most of that room earlier. We are getting an empty dumpster in the morning so we can get the last of the stuff that needs to go away out of the house. Then we will take all the donation stuff to the garage so it will be ready to be picked up next week. After we do that all we will have left to do is to finish cleaning the whole house. We can see the finish line ahead although tomorrow will be another day full of hard work carrying stuff.
Still not sure how we are going to get the big pieces downstairs but we will figure that out tomorrow. We have figured everything else out.
We are both tired and a bit cranky today. It has been an emotional job and hard work. I didn’t sleep much last night. The hot weather hasn’t helped either.
This afternoon we are either going to go get pedicures or go to a movie or maybe do both. It may be beer o’clock rather early today. Nicole has more than earned a few beers tonight.
I’m so glad Nicole took a week off from work to finish this project. It would have been very hard for her to have attempted this while working all day.
We want to go get some lunch and find something fun and cool to do before we go have some beer.
Lots more done today. We will be done with sorting tomorrow. Then we just need to clean and we will have this project done. Yeah!
So proud of you, Nicole and of you Kay, for being there to help her through this. Have a beer on me tonight. Love to both of you.
