Tuesday I so overcooked
the chicken skewers, the chicken was rock hard.
A real embarrassment.
Wednesday afterwork, I
went back to work. With help I loaded
four or so boxes of discarded books into Grumpy and took them to the
Goodwill. Barbara, the lovely retired OR
nurse I work with on Wednesdays, took another four to an animal thrift store up
near where she lives. The assistant
store manager paid someone to take everything away, but they didn’t take all
the books. The Shop still hasn’t found a
replacement for the folks who took them before.
Last night’s dinner came
out perfectly: Red cabbage, kielbasa, and apples with balsamic vinegar and
ginger.
I’ve been grumpy all
day. No excuse. Perhaps I got up on the wrong side of the
bed? Maybe I didn’t like researching the
Renaissance.
Instead of staying cranky,
I delved into the garage. G did one set
of shelves last weekend. Thank you…tho
they need a bit more done on that top shelf.
Today I moved the fleet out and did one big shelf next to the door. There are two boxes of sketchbooks I didn’t
go through, but everything else got properly sorted. G wants to keep the keyboards and one
monitor. I kept the silver and one set
of Blue Ridge dishes. Lots of things
went into the back of Grumpy for the Goodwill.
The sketchbooks are as
much my memories as are my journals. I
think I need help going through them.
Dinner Tonight? G’s taking me out.
Even the garage is looking good. Great progress!
ReplyDeleteThe garage is getting there. One or two of the garages in our driveway are like, almost empty. It is, well, criminal. There must be laws against it!
ReplyDeleteOh! I didn't know you owned a Bernina!! What model?? Does it do embroidery?? I'm researching for a new second machine to have in AZ. Trying to sell my Viking so I can use the money on the new machine.
ReplyDeleteIt's a bottom of the line machine. Yes, I can make it do embroidery, but it isn't a computer focused model.
DeleteI have a whole closet full of craft items. Tons of stuff that I should got through because I no longer do crafts as much!!!
