Dinner, today in decluttering
I took A. in and R. picked her up. He stopped briefly to get a birthday card for me (it is not my birthday today, let’s just get that right out there) and the deal was he was supposed to give her the opportunity to shop for one for me as well. However, they were late heading home and traffic was bad, and we had a dinner reservation so that did not work and she was still pretty angry when she got home. I got her some food and we discussed it and R. agreed this was an error. We went to 80 Thoreau and I had two stiff drinks, we split the tuna crudo, bread and a salad, and I had cauliflower for dinner. And then I came home and had a blondie and some Ben & Jerry’s The Tonight Dough (non-dairy). Pretty awesome. I suggested we get rid of another one of those collapsible tables that I got during that thing in 2020 when we needed some extra work space for school from home. I had 3, and efforts to get rid of them have been weirdly unsuccessful. R. uses one on the porch, and figures we should keep the other because we’ll have two houses for about a year. I’m like, but we could have nice porch furniture. So we’re going to put the other one out for the summer in case someone else wants to have some table space on the porch.
In the meantime, I pointed at the glassware that is super dusty and somewhat greasy on high shelves in our kitchen. We have cleared a lot out of the top shelves in the kitchen (future house does not have as high cupboards; there is a pantry, but it’s not really going to be that much bigger than the pantry we have, sadly), but there were 4 Guinness glasses, a lidded cocktail shaker that we never use, 4 coupe glasses, and 9 sherry or nick and nora glasses, depending on your perspective. There are also a ton of water glasses. The water glasses we are keeping; the rest have been cleaned and posted on FB. I suspect they won’t move, but you never know.
