I got the shed cleaned out today. We have more than enough room now for all our stuff. Kathy helped me and we got it done! Got rid of several totes full of stuff. Some of it needed thrown away and some of it needed brought into the house. I got all the totes labeled with their contents so I know where to look for what I need.
I found the dough hook for my mixer that I hadn’t been able to find since we moved. Kathy found the extra set of car keys to her leased car. I also found some winter scarves that I knew I had but had no idea where they were. Hope I can remember where I put them so I will have them next winter. Gave several things to my neighbor that I don’t need anymore. Have one tote full of things that I need to find a new home for the stuff in it. I will put it on Chase County Care and Share site and someone will come get it and make it go away.
Kathy and I both tried to start the new mower but neither one of us was successful. The manual was worthless as it was pictures and no words. I watched a YouTube video but that didn’t help. I sent a note to Phil and asked him to help us out again. I. Got a rack thingy so we can hang tools in the shed and I also asked Phil to hang it up for me.
I need to take my bike to the bike shop and get it cleaned and the tires fixed. I may take it tomorrow when I go in to do taxes.
I have a MMR booster shot scheduled for Saturday. I decided not to go through the process of having my levels checked and just go ahead and get the shot. From what I read I will only need one. Measles seem to be spreading lots of places and I would rather be safe than sorry. Way too many don’t take them seriously and don’t keep in if they have them.
Tomorrow I am doing taxes in the morning. I don’t think I have any errands to run afterwards unless I take my bike to the shop. The Pioneer Bluffs newsletter is ready to be put together to be mailed. They are going to work on it tomorrow. If they don’t get it done I will help on Friday. I can’t do two big things in one day anymore.
No plans for the weekend except for the vaccine on Saturday. I only am doing taxes once next week unless I pick up an extra shift on Monday or Tuesday. It will be a quiet week.
I’ve been binge watching Grey’s Anatomy and the season I am watching now was during the Covid lockdown. It has brought up lots of memories for me. What a time that was! So much uncertainty and the show reminded me how very difficult it was for the medical community. I wonder what the pandemic did to the collective physic that we still don’t know. Trust, connections to others, and faith all seemed to have been tested and many haven’t been able to go back to “normal”.
It has been a beautiful spring day. Felt so good to get the shed cleaned out and organized. Phil just came over and got the mower running. Kathy went out to find out how to work it as she is the one that mows the most. I love being able to mark things off my to-do list and be better organized.
Grateful the shed project is done, grateful the mower is working, and grateful for vaccines.
