We've got a busy week ahead at Casa de Sawin. Today, I have to mow the lawns, move a bunch of furniture, and do a secret shopper assignment. I won’t name the store, but it’s a sporting goods place, and I am supposed to shop for a sleeping bag. It’s not a lot of money, but these little assignments pay for coffee and a couple of gallons of gas.
Monday: carpenter coming out to work on our kitchen cabinets. We need to tear them up a little to make room for a dishwasher and put in a new exhaust fan. The electrician is going to put in a new circuit for the dishwasher and also hang a few new light fixtures.
Tuesday: Going to the college to finalize registration and figure out what books I’m going to need.
Wednesday: The carpenter is coming back out to hang a new door that connects the house and garage. The siding guys are coming out for final measurements and samples so we can make the final decision about the color.
Thursday: Prepare for garage sale. MPW does most of the work with that stuff, but I get to do all the heavy work. (Due to a back injury from an accident a couple of ears ago, she’s not supposed to lift more than 8 pounds.) I get a kick out of doing this stuff, but I have little patience for the garage sale itself, but moving stuff is fun.
Friday: Garage sale.
Saturday: Garage sale.
So that’s the week ahead ‘round these parts. I got a heck of an entry planned in a couple of days. So stay tuned.
