Monday! Monday!

I've just gotten home from Monday Night Prayer Meeting...so ready to settle in for the evening. Today has been a day of doing "a little of this and a little of that" or as my sister would say: "Dinking Around." I did a load of wash and got it put away. I continue to work around the house getting the last of Christmas/winter decorations put away and am in the process of getting out Spring decorations. Today I found the items that I have stored downstairs and put them on the dining room table. Then I went upstairs and worked on getting some boxes out of Melany's former room. When Abigail moved into their home, she brought back two boxes of Montessori equipment that she had borrowed that she had used at the preschool where she previously taught. I am hoping that I can get the equipment that is now in one box into the Christmas closet. I think that there is room for it since I consolidated Christmas items into less boxes...so surely there is room for one more box...we will see. I still have the last of the Christmas boxes to put up...but if I am going to put this box of MOntessori equipment in that closet, it needs to go towards the bottom of the stack since it is heavier than other boxes going in there. The items that didn't go in this one box, I put up on the top shelf in the closet in Melany's room where other items that I used to use in my Grammy School are stored. So I rearranged the shelf in the closet and did get those items put away. But haven't moved the equipment box into the Christmas closet...yet. I want to label it before I put it in there so I will know what is inside it. The rest of what I did was...if there was something out of place in a room that I went into today, I would pick it up and put in its proper spot. Slowly but surely I am getting a handle on the upstairs once again...it has been sort of "fruit basket turnover since I decorated for Christmas...time to get it straightened out once again. I still have to get the two tubs out that have holiday items in them and get out the Spring things...then I can brighten up the downstairs with some Spring pretties. Yesterday I finished stitching another Christmas ornament, the third for this year. Now it is time to decide on the next one to stitch, as my plan is to have a Christmas ornament in progress at all times. After I finished the Christmas ornament, I switched over to the one I am stitching to put out with my Spring decorations...a group of kites flying. I hear that tomorrow might be a kite flying kind of day...if we get what is predicted, the winds will probably be too strong for flying kites. But we are under a wind advisory parts of tomorrow and the next day. Hopefully we won't be blown away and I will be able to blog again tomorrow night! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
