Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It started out overcast, but it's already brighter. It's going to be mid or upper 90s, and only a very small chance of a late afternoon storm. So, a good day to get laundry hung out early! LOL! Actually, I hung some out last night, and will do more in a few minutes.
Last night I really got myself in gear, and did all the things I had listed for myself for Thursday and last night ... mostly moving boxes of "stuff" to the upstairs storage room, as well as getting that laundry washed and hung. And one tiny plant repotted! :)
Today I plan to finish clearing all the extra junk that has accumulated in what was supposed to be the guest room; and maybe getting an actual bed in there. The only problem is going to be the mountain I have to move upstairs to get to the box spring for the bed! LOL!! But, I'm going to try anyway. Oh, and water, water, water!! :)
Today is "Crowed Nest Awareness Day" ... "Anniversary - Baseball Hall of Fame" ... "Independence Day (Philippines)" ... "Independence Day (Russia)".
