I got to my townhouse this morning and discovered that when I finished cleaning out the refrigerator/freezer yesterday, I hadn’t pushed one of the shelves all the way back in, and so it blocked the door from closing completely. Thus, with the door ajar, the ice in the ice maker started thawing and leaking onto the hardwood floor. Sigh!
I pulled the refrigerator out from the wall - swept/mopped/wiped up all the water. Lord, I SURE hope I got it cleaned up in time and it doesn’t cause the wood floor to warp. One spot, in particular, looks a little saturated.
Also, that means that the food I had decided to keep is now thawed out, too. So I have more food to throw out. In addition to being a lot of work, this move is turning out to be a food-waster, too.
My mantra for now is “In two weeks, this move will be behind me” - repeated over and over and over and over . . .
If I look at yesterday’s “to do” list without considering circumstances, I was an abject failure because I didn’t complete four of the items. However, I did get in my Curves workout, stuck to my diet, went through THREE hours of a home inspection (which was the reason I didn’t get to the other items on the list - I had NO idea a home inspection was so involved!), cleaned out the refrigerator, freezer and pantry and and packed up my dining room (which was a MAJOR deal with all the dishes), and prepared a doggone good dinner for PawPaw and myself. I also spent an hour and a half over at the land helping PawPaw cut down trees. By the time we finished it was too dark for a bike ride, and we were exhausted anyway. So while I didn’t finish everything on my list, I don’t think I could have done anymore. As a matter of fact, I’m rather superwomanish to have done all that!
So for today, here’s my goals - a little less intense than yesterday: (1) Curves workout, (2) Stick to diet, (3) Make all those phone calls, (4) Pack up two rooms, (5) Arrange for repairs that the home inspection discovered were needed, and (6) A quick stop to get more packing materials (bubble wrap mostly).
I’m headed out the door to get started on this list. Wish me luck!
