First, we started in the garage. We moved things around to set up a holding place for packed moving boxes, furniture we want to keep but don't want to use to stage. While we did this we posted some things for sale online. We did pretty good. We made $75 today!
Then we had a little bit of a lull in the afternoon we walked the dogs and my friend Nora came over to visit Peggy and I and talk gardening.
After our little break, we began cleaning up the sunroom to move our bedroom into it. We took down all the broken blinds, swept, mopped, and relocated all the junk that had piled up in it. As a side note, my favorite part about moving is finally having the best excuse to get rid of all the junk we have accumulated. Then I suddenly had a horrible pain in my lower right abdomen. Hell if I know or ever will know what it was. I usually get a similar pain on my left side and has always associated it with various lady pains. This pain nearly convinced me to go to the ER. I didn't have a fever and God only knows what the hell is going on with our Medicaid status so I waited it out. After a few hours of being curled up in bed we were back in business.
During the time of me being under the weather I have no idea what happened around the house. I think ricks mom did laundry and Rick went around plastering cracks, holes and dents.
We managed to move a lot of our bedroom into the sunroom. We're actually thinking of leaving our bedroom set up in here, but that could just be a fleeting feelingd. It's connected to the nursery and master bedroom and we would then turn the master bedroom into the tv/living room. Our bed room has forever shared being the tv room and bedroom. It's big enough to hold a couch and our bedroom stuff.
We moved our bedroom because the bedroom needs some messy work along with the master bathroom. Our master bedroom has the best window access to throwing things out to the dumpster. Which! I forgot to mention! Our fourth and final dumpster is coming in the morning! I just asked Rick how many dumpsters we were up to and he told me so far we've gotten rid of 14,000 pounds from our house just in dumpsters. THAT'S SO MUCH PLASTER! So the next ten days we run around trying to knock out any last bit of walls and floors we need to fill up the dumpster!
Here's a glimpse to our room for sleeping in. Peggy says hi! We won't put our bed frame together until we know where it's going to be for staging. We also are ordering new blinds for this room too, so we won't be on display to all of our neighbors. 13 sets of blinds, yuck that's going to suck buying and then hanging them all up. Eventually we will paint the walls of this room and sand and refinish the floor.
Tomorrow should be one hell of an update! Nothing gets us more excited than an empty dumpster to fill! Oye, we're so lame!
