I am back in control. Whew.
I have organized every room - everything is in boxes that are stacked or placed neatly along the walls. Everything on the terrace has been upfitted in case it rains. And I vacuumed. I filled up one bag and half another. It feels like camping out but camping out in luxury. I can handle it.
Lee came and we hauled the cabinet carcass to the dumpster. She did not think we could do it or that it would fit in the dumpster but we agreed that there was no Plan B. So we did it. One of the dumpsters was nearly empty! (My neighbors clearly have not wasted their weekend cleaning!) We hoisted the thing up there and over the edge and in it went. Ahhhhh
Betty and Jake are sniffing around all the nooks and crannies they have never had access to before. They are taking inventory. I half expect one of them to emerge from a formerly blocked corner with a little kitty clipboard.
I am bruised and battered but satisfied. The laundry is laundrying. I updated the Makeover site and need to photograph the last finished afghan and get the knitting page updated. I need to do that so I can take this afghan and the one before it down to the car and get them out of here - the less stuff around, the better.
And then, I think I'm going to treat myself to an afternoon on the couch. I think I've earned it...
