 RH>> Trying to--I found some old sliders so used them to move book shelves
 NB>> first mental image was of those little hamburgers-in-a-little-bun...
 NB>> which quickly resolved into the proper type of sliders...  :)

 RH> Kinda thought, after I typed it, "I hope she knows what kind of
 RH> sliders I'm referring to".
 
Having used them, yup...  But the other is at least appropriate for the
echo... ;)

 RH>> in the sewing room into place. Then I unpacked 8 boxes of books and
 RH>> shelved them. Found a few more kitchen things and put them away too.
 NB>> That's good progress, too.   :)

 RH> But everything is on hold for a bit now.

Of course.  It was a good thing that you were able to make the progress
you did before the call came... it ended up being a better stopping
place than it might otherwise have been... :)

 RH>> The right one will be found in due time. I'm debating maybe a blue
 RH>> and yellow (provincial) print (not specific fabric yet) or something
 RH>> else. I'm also debating if I want to do cafe type curtains or full
 RH>> ones--I've got a door window, a bay window and a small window over
 RH>> the sink to cover.
 NB>> Depends on how exposed the windows are, and how much sunlight you
 NB>> want to make its way in through them...  ;)  I tend to go for
 NB>> minimal treatment, myself...  :)

 RH> Nobody can see in that well but we're off a busy street and headlights
 RH> at night come right into the door window. The bay window is big enough
 RH> that I want something to diffuse morning sunlight on the breakfast
 RH> table. And, as long as I'm making curtains for the other windows, I
 RH> may as well finish the job with some for the over the sink window. (G)

Maybe just a valance for the over the sink window...?

 RH>> And right now it's in a bit more of a mess as Steve is doing some wall
 RH>> repair over the stove before putting in the new microwave. All will be
 RH>> settled, eventually.
 NB>> The fun of moving... and the fun of being in the throes thereof...
 NB>> (G) But doing things in a proper order makes for better settling in
 NB>> the long run...  ;)

 RH> That's what the goal is.

Yup.

 RH>> I don't know why they have the 2 groups at the senior center; it was
 RH>> an on going thing before I joined the Tuesday group.
 NB>> Maybe the Wednesday group was the original one, then, and the QofV a
 NB> spin-off particularly for doing those projects, and to affiliate with
 NB> the national group...  :)

 RH> I honestly have no idea. I'll have to ask our co-ordinator.

When you get a chance, and think of it...  ;)
 
 RH>> As long as it's sleep like last night's, about 10 hours and only one
 RH>> during the night wake up. Night before it was about 3 hours, and up
 RH>> about 8-10 times.
 NB>> True, the former (second night) seems more restful.  Hopefully your
 NB>> time up in NY will give you some chance for extra down time, between
 NB>> what needs doing there.  Prayers, thoughts and hugs continue...  :)

 RH> We're doing a good bit here. Last night I slept thru, not even waking
 RH> up at all.

He gives His beloved sleep...  :)   
 
 RH>> There's also a bit more space on the counter top for something else,
 RH>> as yet undecided what. Very convenient tho, when emptying the
 RH>> dishwasher.
 NB>> Maybe one should (try to) keep it clear, for such purposes...??  ;)

 RH> Time will tell, if anything else will end up there.
 
Indeed.   :)

 RH>>> But, sooner or later, it will be passed on.
 NB>>> Or maybe you could have her over for a meal, once the dust
 NB>>> settles a little...  :)
 RH>> We'll work it out but she will have it eventually.
 NB>> And it's not like there's a pressing time crunch for it... :)

 RH> No, not like it was needed yesterday.

And you aren't moving away in the next few months...  ;)

ttyl         neb

... I knew it. Today is Monday, cleverly disguised as Tuesday.
