No I Have Not Been Traveling

walkitoutI’m behind on blogging, and I don’t even know why.
Today, I walked with M. I had a delightful phone call with K., which was abbreviated because we both lost track of time. I then had another really enjoyable call with J. Yay!
I took the iPad over to the UPS store and shipped it to H.
I listed a ton of stuff on FB Marketplace, and almost everything I listed has already been claimed and some of it has been picked up. At this point, I’m focused on clearly out all the small stuff that is on display in bookcases that no longer contain many if any books. There continues to be resistance to getting rid of bookcases. My strategy had been to display stuff so the space wouldn’t be colonized by other stuff (which only works on the main and second floor — the attic is a disaster). But I think I’m going to move to a strategy of, hey, we can either move this thing repeatedly, or just donate it right away. That’s been one of the more successful maneuvers in this whole thing.
I made carrot cake, zucchini bread and I tried to make peanut butter, but something went wrong. The carrot cake is awesome — A. and I both loved it. I haven’t tried the zucchini bread yet.
R. took T. to the airport for his west coast trip, and then he went to the Pixies concert. I’m going to try to catch up on blogging.
I did FF. That was nice. It was just Priestess and I at first, continuing a chat session on FF while she tinkered with the sewing machine and I set up the various baking projects. It has finally cooled down. More people showed up for FF and we had a good conversation.
