Hi Nancy,

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

 RH> Kinda thought, after I typed it, "I hope she knows what kind of
 RH> sliders I'm referring to".

 NB> Having used them, yup...  But the other is at least appropriate for
 NB> the echo... ;)

Very true, but I wouldn't want to eat the kind I used.


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

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

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

It's only a partial disaster area, instead of a complete one. But yes,
the timing was as good as it could have been.

 NB> a small window over  RH>> the sink to cover.
 NB>  NB>> Depends on how exposed the windows are, and how much sunlight
 NB> you  NB>> want to make its way in through them...  ;)  I tend to go
 NB> for 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)

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

I'm not sure at this point, I think they all may get the full length
curtains. The bay window will be the fun one tho, maybe side curtains
with a valence only on the middle window section.

 NB> thereof...  NB>> (G) But doing things in a proper order makes for
 NB> better settling in  NB>> the long run...  ;)

 RH> That's what the goal is.

 NB> Yup.

And we'll get there, eventually.

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

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

 NB> He gives His beloved sleep...  :)

With help from running stairs in this house. Down to the cellar, up to
the 2nd floor who knows how many times a day........ Doing some laundry
for us & Dad today, plus making chicken soup from the carcass of one we
roasted the other day. Also rounding things up for packing, watching
snow squalls, etc.

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

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

 NB> Indeed.   :)

It's the counter nearest the pantry so keeping an area clear would make
sense.

 NB>  RH>> We'll work it out but she will have it eventually.
 NB>  NB>> And it's not like there's a pressing time crunch for it... :)

 RH> No, not like it was needed yesterday.

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

Nor is she, that we know of.
