Monday and Tuesday

Monday April 24
The sun is shining…. This is a good thing!!! We have had rain the past several days. Around 3 inches overall. The stream is really moving fast… we could hear it last night. We had thunder and lightning and heavy downpours. It’s 5:30 PM and the sun is finally out.
After they finished the bathroom our electrician, Jimmy, came back to do some additional work we needed. Two ceiling fans, outside plugs, an outside light on a pole and light in the storage area. He finished Sunday. Today someone took the washer and dryer along with some other things. So we are now enjoying solitude. B just said it’s so strange to have no one here!!!!
The light in the storage area is GREAT. It was so dark back there I couldn’t see the labels on the boxes. So, today I cleaned… There were paint cans and other things that had been left here from the two previous owners. I took all that stuff out to the garage to deal with Later. After sweeping and cleaning the area I got to work…. And made some headway. Stuff we haven’t used for two years in now in the “out” pile. I’m moving things around so I can find stuff easier. I’m locating things I knew I had but couldn’t find. The give away pile is growing! This is going to take some time… but, I will be able to locate things much easier.
On a more interesting note, dinner tonight is from a recipe off the internet. A Kansas City Steak Soup - NJ style… and I changed it so it’s now PA style. Smells good!!! Is good!

Tuesday
Nice day... cool in the morning but by mid afternoon it was kinda warm. Really made great strides in the storage area... and "found" some things. An old set of dishes I gave my mom back in 1963... corning and they look good. I remember I had a part time job... in high school at the time. I think she really liked them... memories. Getting cooler I moved the herbs close to the house as it might go below freezing... As I said... good day!
