So much stuff!!!

[susandennis]

I do remember from moving that those few books you have on that one shelf becomes a massive library when you pack it into boxes. The same thing happened with my kitchen. I try to keep the kitchen clutter free. I like big patches of nothing on the counter. But holy fuck is there a lot of shit when you go to move it all off.

Plus this morning, the counter sales woman told me I needed to clear out under the sink and the open shelves I have under the counter. It's now all done and my living room is a mess. So much stuff!! Ugh.

Once everything was all off the counter, I grabbed the sponge to clean it off. And then remembered that it was all going into the bin - dirty is fine, thank you.

The counter peops will be here at '8 or a little after'. Since they didn't ask about parking until 6:45 this morning, I'm guess it will be closer to 8:30 as they try to find parking and then give up and pull into the parking lot and pay up. I'd be a little more sympathetic had they done a little more pre-planning. My expectations are really low about this whole counter top replacement experience and so far they are being met.

The cat is already unsettled since I had to move her food bowl. She'll get over it. She's pretty chill about stuff like this.

This morning, when I made the bed, I found cat fur on the sheet next to my pillow. She was not there when I went to sleep. And not there when I woke up. But sometime in the night, she grabbed a free snuggle which amuses me.

I love the shelf you have with all your mugs on it! What a great idea!

Thanks! My idea was to hire the decorator who designed the shelves :)

I hope it doesn't take them long to get this done for you. I like how your mugs are displayed!

They guys doing the installation are both really nice and they are moving along at an amazing clip. I don't think it's going to take long at all!

And thanks about the mug shelf.

Counter installation usually goes super quick. I'm with you about not liking stuff on the counter. Of course, My only counter is about five feet long in my teeny kitchen, but even if other places with tons of counter, NOTHING on that counter!

quick and stinky... they just glued down the first slab. at least they told me to open the door to the outside first.

Ooh, I do like the set up. Hope it went smoother than the process had thus far!

I love waking up in the night and finding a surprise cat snuggle in progress. I like it best when they are asleep between my feet and I reach down to stroke them and they purr

About the small amount of stuff that turns out to be large amount of stuff: I'm having the Gloucester piano tuned for the first time in umpteen years next week. It's an upright, so there's not room for a whole lot of stuff on top, right? Well, I was just looking at it yesterday and thought "What is all that crap? And where am I going to put it?"
