I spent the day Sunday moving the two surviving bookcases and the bottom half of the buffet into my studio and cleaning them. I lost the bottom section of the antique law bookcases so now it's a stack of three. You can see a faint water mark on the solid wood bookcase but the bottom part of the antique buffet suffered quite a bit of damage visually (and the veneer bubbled up). Structurally it's still pretty solid. I think it will eventually go back in the spare bedroom but for now I'll use it in here.
Still working on the arrangement before I start putting stuff in them though my work table is doing what horizontal surfaces do and collecting all sorts of stuff. Mostly I need to sort through all the stuff beyond the door to the back bedroom and get it cleared out by New Year's so that Rocky can start back there.
Saturday I got bupkis done, well, if you don't count socializing as getting something done. I took a photograph to be restored and a small print to be reframed to the frame shop for Margaret to work her magic on and visited with her for a while, then over to my friend Caroline's across the square for a couple of hours to help her iron table cloths and chair covers for two weddings she has coming up at the Dragonfly. Wesley is in the city building out some restaurants so she is having to do it all herself. She tried to hire someone to do the ironing but in the best American crybaby 'I need money but you're only offering to pay $10 an hour' mode, she couldn't get anyone to come do the job. This right here is why this country is going down the drain especially when Trump is deporting all the people who would do it in a heartbeat while Paul Ryan is chastising American women for not having more babies to bulk up the labor force. Anyway, after I left Caroline's having been happy to help her for free I stopped at my sister's house on the way home and then walked the dog and stopped to chat with my friend and neighbor Judy. I probably stuffed a month's worth of socializing in one day.
Today is another overcast wet dreary day after several in a row already though it's not as cold as it has been and will be warmer tomorrow but still overcast and wet and overcast wet dreary weather robs me of my motivation so all I've managed to get accomplished all dayis going through one box and moving the tall bookcase and the buffet to different spots in the room. And continually convince myself that I am indeed going to yoga even in the drear and light rain, which I did.
