Slept for 2.5 hours .... errrr think "passed out" is a far better description , up and working at trying to unpack immediate need things.
Stocked fridge with 3 gallons milk. I know it would be dreadful to run out of milk at this point in time and there's not any zippy marts close-by. Also pound of Colby cheese, a dozen large orange gator-ades, 2 six packs of cokes. I will have to adjust and pre-plan all my food needs here in this rural area.
It's all good but sure will welcome normalcy back into my life which will happen when I am totally unpacked and settled in. I cannot even think of those 5 storage rooms I still have to haul. Right now, they are back in the city. I am going to pretend there is only one and go from there. LOL!
Finally closed on the home yesterday afternoon. I am already so much in love with my little home in the woods. So quiet all evening. Very calming not to hear loud city noise. Jennifer and Kevin are tuckered out from anticipation of knowing something HUGE was up. Right now, Kevie is snoring and Jennifer just opened her peepers - which are all red and glossy. Since I got up around 2:30 a.m., I see she is keeping herself positioned up against Kevin to be able to look up and see me in the kitchen when she opens her eyes.
For the time being and probably for a few more days, we are doing the "drag the mattress and flop" thing in the dining room. I told them we are camping out with added luxery of an air-conditioner. Heh Heh!
My body is so beaten up. I remember my early twenties in Army Basic Training ... right now, feeling like I have been in Basic Training for a month. I will be 60 before this summer is gone. I think busy lite weight work around here for a few days is in order ... about out of energy for straining and lifting heavy things. I wrestled that appliance hand truck yesterday up and down little embankments at my former place to the point of using special words ... was pretty loud a couple of times.
I wish I could have accepted offers from friends to help me move but it was so important to me to do it all myself. Even the guys at work offered help with large appliances.
I am a genuinely thankful person.
