I know my journal all but dried up and blew away. Last Monday we got a phone call from my MIL. Sir Megabyte’s older sister’s husband passed away that morning. So the next thing I knew the whirlwind began and we arrived home again late last night. My SIL seemed pretty well. We love her and hope that she continues to do well.

So what did I do today? FLurry of actiity! I took three boxes of things over to the storage unit One of which was a ton of clothes that I cleared out of my closet that’s winter attire. Definately don’t need that now that it’s April and warm! I kept a couple pairs of trousers, just to be safe. But I have very few clothes in the closet now so now we are able to move thigns around in there. And we are down to only one tote in the bedroom. It’s only partially filled and is being used as a bedside table.

I put away some laundry and only have whites left to do. I went to Target and picked up some stuff. The kids now have three plastic drawers to hold their clothes. This seems to be working MUCH better. I also picked up a couple new plastic shoe boxes for my new nice shoes I had to purchase for the funeral and for Sir M’s church shoes. Along with that, a three drawer plastic thing for our closet. One drawer holds our extra towels. I might try to put them in storage though. One drawer holds our current towels as well as our bathroom needs. The final drawer, I moved our food into. I had a large drawer that I was able to move some extra stuff into that we don’t use often but use on occasion which went into the top of the closet. This freed up space on the bookshelf for the remaining books that I had on top of the desk.

I went on from there. Completely rearranged how things were and cleared off the desk so that it could be moved. Also took care of the printer stand that I keep my computer stuff on. Moved it. Everything to prepare for a complete rearrange of the bedroom because I totally need a change as well as I want to free up some room, and be able to slide the bed down so I actually have a side of the bed that’s easy to get in and out of.

The furniture is all moved. But things are not put back together. That’s my task for tomorrow. Unfortunately that is in addition to needing to go to Kenmore and the grocery store.

My husband did the heavy moving of the desk. He then also moved the dresser while I held the TV and then the printer stand over to hold the TV. We’ll be moving the moniter into storage. The TV will not only work as a tv but a computer moniter so that will be cool. I still have to hook that up. It was a bit lower than the dresser so we moved the shelf up and now the books that were on the top shelf of the printer stand (there are two shelves inside) went onto that. The Cable box and Xbox replaced the books on that shelf. Which is a MUCH nicer fit.

I can’t wait to get things back into place. Finish this up. I’m thinking things will be nicer. Unfortunately there’s not near as much room in there with the bed moved away from the corner. But at least things will work better as far as sleeping goes. No more of me having to crawl all over the place just to bloody get into bed!

I’m sure I’ve forgotten some detail. I’m really tired from working so hard! I can’t believe the change in the room already!
