Awake: 6:30am Temp 46 sleep 6+39 windy & cloudy overnight @ Nicktown.
Sunday is more or less....our day off. But with all the stuff we have yet to organize in our house, we are not doing much socializing on our days off.
For instance, this morning I spent about (4) hrs going thru our file cabinet & cleared about 1/3rd of the old paperwork; and that was only the 1st drawer. During this time, Kathy was doing some laundry & organizing a back room.
Then Melissa called us after they walked back from attending Mass @ Saint Thomas Moore in Indiana, Pa. She is doing fine & wanted to know if we still planed on a visit today. "Yes" we told her. Unfortunately we still have about (18-25) boxes out of (44) stored in their basement & a library ladder since 2005. So we agreed to motor over, spend a little time with the boys, & then get those last boxes & ladder, load them into the Ford Van...........
& I would bring them back to Nicktown & Kathy would either stay @ the Foote castle for the night or come on home.
For weeks now, since Kathy started the babysitting plan to help Melissa every other week when she went for her pregnancy exam, Kathy, with a little help from her busy husband, has loaded up (3) buckets of good sand that the Bassett guys, due to a mistake, couldn't use. Kathy brought the sand to the Foote family's sandbox each time she drove there. So today, we did our duty & brought those buckets of sand again; this was # 3 bucket.
Kathy was prepared to stay at the Footes in anticipation of Melissa's delivery, but Melissa told her nothing was happening, no contractions, so Kathy returned to Nicktown in our car.
When arriving @ our house, sprinkles were just beginning to fall. I had about (10) boxes sitting on the ground but under the entry dormer...& the dark clouds let loose. It was just a short burst so I soon continued removing the boxes.
A few min later, Kathy drove in & gave me some help. I was not interested in opening any more boxes, especially now.
Dinner: Reuben sandwich with chips.
Lights out: 11:13pm.
