Weekend Two

We were supposed to go to StoryLand this weekend, but when the weather was predicted to be raining and in the 60s, I cancelled our reservations. Wouldn't you know, the weather actually turned out to be pretty nice - Friday did rain, but it was warm, and we wouldn't have arrived until the afternoon anyway. Saturday was a gift - dry and partly sunny all day! We compensated by taking the kids to Kimball's for bumper boat rides and ice cream.

In the end, it worked out well because I worked from home on Friday and got my reviews written, and Chuck was able to do a lot around the house, move furniture out of the living room, etc.

Today I cleaned out the spare refrigerator so that Chuck can take it to work and we can put the old refrigerator in its place. I also did some refrigerator clean out of our current refrigerator.

This morning it took me about an hour to make coffee and toast. First I had to find the coffee maker on the office floor, then I realized that the cord wasn't going to reach, so I moved the temp table down from the FR to the kitchen. Then I finally was able to get the coffee started. Next I decided to have peanut butter toast. No bread. I had some in the freezer, so down to the basement to get it. Back up to the office to put it in the toaster. Next to the FR to find the peanut butter. Back down to the kitchen, but then back up to the office for paper plates and a knife. What a production! Everything is like that. I keep thinking I should have done more planning and put together a staged area for the kitchen. The problem is that the only place that make sense is on the next floor, and it didn't really seem logical to be running up and down stairs for everything, but maybe I should have bit the bullet.

I sold my ladder back chairs! Yeah, more $ for the bar stool fund . . .
