Day 14: Getting Back To Normal

 Today, even though I'm still stiff and sore, I have to get back into cleaning mode because I have the maintenance guys coming tomorrow to check out the ceiling in Monsoon and Hurricane's room (water damaged from the rain).

I'm not sure I'll make it down to buy the groceries today. A) because I have a screw in my tyre and it needs to be changed out, and B) I don't want to have to take the 3 girls with me, that would be a mission all on its own, and I don't think I'm up to that. It's tough enough having to deal with them at home (I just keep telling myself, 13 days until school starts again).

The girls were so excited because yesterday and they got to show their grandad (dad's dad) before he left to go home... Don't know when he'll get back down for a visit. The girls will miss him like crazy.

Thank God the bins are emptied today so that I can start filling them up again. At least now they should begin to just be normal size bin days, because thanks to the girl's grandad who did a few dump-runs for us most of the trash is now gone. We still have to cull the kid's toys and clothes seeing as they have all had growth spurts. That is the last big job inside the house to do. though my daughter has to do with her clothes and stuff. Me, I'm always getting rid of my clothes (giving them to my sister) especially if I haven't worn them for a long time. If my sister doesn't get them, I donate them to the op-shop.

Until tomorrow, remember: One person's trash is another person's treasure.
