Cleaning Up At Old House

Today's plan was to work on the cargo trailer some more this morning and then get ready to head to the other house in Louisiana and do some more packing/cleaning. Since I didn't go to bed until after 6 am this morning, hubby let me sleep until 10:30. I got up and had a cup of coffee and went to feed the chickens, dog and cat. Then I hit the cargo trailer. I noticed that he had been out there already and moved a couple of boxes of things to the edge for me to look at. I told him that most of that stuff could go to the flea market since it was stuff from the antique store booth a few years ago. I took a few things out and then shut the trailer back up so we could get on the road. I threw out lots of things today and filled a couple of big garbage bags of trash. I also filled a couple of boxes with things like antique dolls, and other misc. things that I wanted to keep. I also put things that I knew were Christy's on a shelf for her to get or trash soon. I will meet them there in the next week or so. Her boyfriend has some tools there and a drafting table. Christy has a small table that she left in the kitchen and other misc. things. It was a very buy day and I had to take some Aleve in addition to my routine pain pills. I was sore last night but that worked its way out for the most part. I just feel like I stretched muscles today. How was your day today? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

This is a hard job to do, sorting things and deciding what to do is exhausting. Try not to do too much.

@kareng the interview was fine. Kind of think that I'm overqualified for the post. I really don't mind. Pay was discussed but wasn't disclosed. Hopefully, I hear from them either today or tomorrow.

Yep, he didn't get much done today while I was at the boutique. He tripped and fell in the storage container and that scared him since he could have knocked himself out so sent me a message about it and quit. LOL. Sounds like an excuse to me!!

@wolfgirl569 He said his headlight went out and he couldn't see well in there. We will be back at it here in just a few. Fun, fun..haha.

Moving, or cleaning out a house, is so much work. It's hard on the body and mind and patience. Don't work so hard you don't get proper rest, it's even harder to do if you are super tired.

I'd like to tell you about my day, but I don't remember much. My dad came over for dinner tonight so I remember that.

Yesterday I decided to try to wear a t shirt that I thought might be too small and I was right. I'm going to throw it away. I need to go through my other t shirts. I got a picture frame I ordered. I am supposed to be getting some mat board today. I finished reading a book and got an audiobook. I listened to some of the audiobook this morning. My great aunt brought over two cupcakes and four strawberries.
