meals and moving oh my
Feb. 23rd, 2005 12:06 amOK,
landley picked up the sofa and bookcases he and
fadethecat are taking. There was not TOO much bloodshed involved in getting stuff down the stairs, although it nearly came to bloodshed via pocketknives over the proper way to tie knots in a pickup truck. This makes much more room for me to move stuff around as I pack. And our tenant has a place to move to next week, so we are on target so far!!
We had supper with
the_curmudgn and family last night. S makes a mean chicken and dumplings! And asparagus, which he and I are the only people who like, so we had it all to ourselves, what a pity ;) I brought salad, in which I included grape tomatoes, which Miss M informed me were "extremely delicious." She is quite proud of her rapidly expanding vocabulary. I gave her one of our stuffed animals - we really don't need to cart every single stuffed animal we own 1600 miles, and this particular rabbit came down here from Boston and has been sitting on various shelves for nearly 28 years, he needed more love. So she now has Benjamin Bunny, whom she proceeded to take to bed with her - cute! That leaves us with, let's see, my stuffed dinosaurs and guinea pigs and hedgehogs and an echidna and a wombat and a blue hippo, and Spouse's stuffed cats and penguins and a small tiger and the ring-tailed lemur and giant south american anteater, oh, and the plush lobster, two plush bats, a pterodactyl, three Cthulhus, and of course the Giant Microbes. That's quite enough stuffed toys for two people, wouldn't you say?
I've got two people to teach knitting to tomorrow, and one Thursday; am still waiting to hear from a fourth who said they were interested, from the afghan raffle at St. Ed's. Whee!
