Anyway, he's had a great time there in the past, but this time he went alone (more or less; he has friends there, but none riding with him or sharing a sales tent) and ended up spending a good part of the day yesterday literally wringing out his clothes, pouring accumulated rain off all the bins of stuff he had brought to sell and otherwise having TONS of rain-related fun. I'm hoping today is going better.
Anyway, while he's out of town, I decided to get a few large-ish chores done, namely
- Change the pump and remote on our Select Comfort bed. The old one no longer shows digits on my remote, which is not that handy. This involves moving furniture in the bedroom, like—duh—the bed.
- Conduct an all-at-once-in-the-same-pot cleaning of the silverplate bits and bobs I dragged out of the breakfast room cabinets when we replaced the shelves with drawers.
- Put all the stuff back in those drawers. (Yeah. Still not finished with that.)
- Conduct the semi-annual cleaning out around the litter boxes. The two in my office are tucked away in opposite corners, with plastic sheeting underneath and behind them to contain any litter that the cats kick out of the boxes. It's not much, but it gradually accumulates and eventually has to be swept up and the plastic wiped down. You might can understand why this is something I put off.
Rich has been gone since Tuesday night. Ask me how much of that I've done so far.
Uh, here — look at this! This nicely illustrates one of the reasons I love this house:
