Day 144: Sleep Over

 

I have the girls for a sleep over while their mum tries and gets her assignment done. I bet I end up sleeping on the air mattress with Monsoon again. I wonder if I'll have to move to the couch at some stage

Not feeling the best today, but that got put on hold because life has to go on.

My niece stopped by for a visit in the day, when she was on her way home from a work conference. It was good to see her.

Sad to say that I'm not going to have an early night. These girls are going to be up past midnight just because they want to annoy the heck out of me.

Day 143: Spiders

 

I have been cleaning out both the pantry and the linen cupboard at the new place and they were full of little red spiders similar to this one. I loathe spiders... Most of the stuff in the pantry was out of date. I had to toss it all. At least I have enough of my own to restock it all. It's going to be hard to get everything to fit in. the new pantry is smaller than the one I have now.

Hurricane is excited to go and pick up her new glasses today. I think because one of the frames is Spiderman.

Realized how hard it is to clean when the hot water isn't really hot, and there aren't any plugs for the sink. I'm going to have remedy that situation.

Day 141: Leaving #2

 

My 2nd sister and brother-in-law are leaving today. So I have a chance to catch up on all the chores that were left by the wayside while I had my visitors.

I have a mad headache and a really sore back today. I'm mega tired. At least the cats have stopped freaking out with so many people being around.

I threw out the air mattress with the hole in it but kept the cover to put on the one at my daughter's place. I have to try and get back on track with my packing and moving schedule. I need to get` out of this house on time.

Day 140: Leaving #1

 

1st sister and brother-in-law went home today. I love my sister, but sometimes it's all too much. I'm not a drinker, and for me there is nothing worse than a person who drinks and doesn't know they're drunk. not that she did anything too annoying, she just got louder

I went and did the groceries to restock what I used with everyone being here. I'm a little put out with people today. People who should know better have done/ asked for. things they should never have any business asking/doing. I'm going to pissed off for a few days/weeks/months to come.

Instead of retaliating, I've decided to take a step back and ignore it. I can ignore, but I can't forget.

Day 139: Visitors

 

Today my house was filled up even more with family. Two of my nephews and a girlfriend came over I also had my daughter and granddaughter, then my eldest sister and one of her kids. As well as my two other sisters and their husbands. All I can say for sure is, as nice as it was seeing everyone; I was glad when they all (mostly) left.

I have the headache from hell from all the noise. I'll be glad when the house gets back to normal. Actually, check back with me at Christmas. By then I'll have moved and have sorted through the house and have a routine set in place.

Day 138: Threadbear

 

My brother passed away today at 4:50pm. At least he is finally out of pain now. He will be missed by many.

Graceful and Hurricane each received awards on parade today.

Everyone came back to our house to stay so we were pretty full up. I'm not sure how long they will stay for. it could be hours it could be days.

Day 137: Resting, But Not

 

I managed to drop the plastic tubs off at new place. Low and behold there was no one there to help me unload everything. I had to do it in two loads as I wanted the stacks of tubs out of my lounge room.

Everyone was coming over for a visit for brunch. I'm tired and so is mum. We didn't go over to my brother's today. At 93 I have to listen to what my mum needs and for her today it's a rest.

I'm trying to get as much done around the house as I can... I feel like I'm falling behind on my moving plan/schedule.
