Good morning, villagers ~
This morning I turned a handle at the kitchen sink and hot water came
right out of the spigot -- it's magic!
Today will be mostly desk day, catching up on the online work that had to be postponed while I was waiting on phone calls.
Hmm, now I'm waiting on email replies, and it feels very much the same as waiting for the phone to ring ...
3 kitchen drawers to deep clean, now that hot water is more easily available:
1) Knives and other sharp implements -- I don't use most of them because I have my favorites, so the extra pieces can go into a donation box.
2) Food storage bags, foil, wax paper, etc. -- just needs to be neatened, the drawer washed & new liner installed
3) T'ware & other plastic lids -- Anything that doesn't match a container (& any container that doesn't have a lid) needs to either be tossed or donated. We also have too many containers, so possibly a third of them can be donated.
Once I get these drawers taken care of, there will be space to store a few things that are currently up on the counters. From yesterday's work, there is 1 big empty space on a counter, which fills me with delight.
I'm starting to have hope that I can get the house in better shape before someone nominates us for the Hoarders shows. (Although I wouldn't mind the Clean Sweep folks stopping by. I love the way they always made it look so easy to just haul a couple of rooms full of furniture and everything out onto the lawn.)
I thought about running to the grocery store, but I don't want to be sidetracked from this at-home stuff.
