Good morning! It's a gorgeous morning! It's clear, the sky is pink and gold, and I can see the sun reflecting on thngs in the yard. It's going up to 60 today!! (and that forecast is actually north of me, to could be even higher). Finally, that long bitter cold spell is over. While there's still a lot of winter left, surely the rest will be "normal" for us.
I managed to pack up a few more boxes last night, and even got one upstairs. Yes, only one ... but it was heavy! LOL! Maybe it will take longer than I thought; but since I still get to enjoy everything for a while longer, it's all good. :)
The kitchen sink is (finally) unclogged ... so tonight I will wash a lot of dishes! LOL! Maybe I'll do some laundry. Hopefully I'll pack up another box or two. Or, maybe I'll just watch TV. :)
Today is "International Fetish Day" ... "Humanitarian Day" ... "Lee-Jackson Day (Virginia" .... "Get To Know Your Customers Day" ... "Women in Blue Jeans Day" ... "Hat Day" ... "Rain Forest Day".
