Good Decision!
Good Morning! Well I was going to pack my boxes yesterday but ended up packing someone else’s. Got a call yesterday morning from Sweet Thing asking what were my plans for the day and was I available to help her. My daughter has never made a major move and with 11 years of accumulation facing her she sounded quite overwhelmed. So of course I would drive down and try to help make a dent in the project.
I arrived at about noon and we started on the kitchen. To me this is the most difficult to pack when you have to determine what can go and what has to remain out in order to survive until the move is complete. Well by around 5:30 pm we had that project, plus the items in the corner cabinet and the video cabinet into boxes and on to two pickups. We packed plaques, pictures, and other item from around the walls while waiting for David to get home from work to carry the heavy things out for us. It was starting to get dark then and both truck had to be unloaded before we could call it a day.
At 5 am this morning I woke up to feet and ankles that were screaming when I crawled out of bed. The cane and the walker were out of reach across the room and my urgent ency turn to apprehension as I stumbled towards the bathroom. One thought flashed just then. I’m getting these feet fixed then there will be less pain when I overdo. Good decision Momma Axsom!!!!
So today I’m waiting for the frost to clear off the windshield of the truck because I’m driving down to the garage to get wild bird seed for the feeders, jam, and mailing boxes so I can continue on with my project. Hope all goes well with your day.
