This morning I woke up before 6am but didn't know what time it was because my alarm clock is packed. After coffee with milk, we finished loading all but the last of the stuff in the Prowler. Tomorrow morning while I'm returning the modem, the Babaloo and the kids will load the mattresses, the TV, and our computers.
When I get back, we'll load the suitcases in the car.
Suitcases, camp chairs, first aid toolbox.
We also threw away a whole bunch of stuff today.
The socks I mentioned yesterday.
Broken backpacks, unused boxes, excess mops in the dining area.
I also finished scrubbing the kitchen.
Before sweeping/mopping.
We also took a load of donation stuff over on the way to my sister's house for lunch.
Everything but the table.
Then we had a lovely lunch that lasted five hours. The cousins played. The menfolk enjoyed beers and conversation. I'm really going to miss the frequency of visits with my sister and that's all I'm going to say about it right this moment because I hate crying.
We topped off the air pressure on the car tires on the way home. I've finished sweeping and vacuuming all the floors except the living room. The Babaloo says he'll vacuum and mop after he and the kids finish watching one last movie and dismantling his computer and the TV.
We have very little food in the fridge but nothing with which to cook it. I thought I was being smart by holding back the ingredients for tuna salad, but I forgot about a can opener, so we ordered and devoured a large pizza for dinner.
Right this minute, I'm waiting for my comforter to finish drying (it's been in for four cycles now, so it should be done soon) and then I'll go put fresh sheets on our bed and start one last load of laundry.
Is that it? We've done so much today but I can't remember it all. I know I'm forgetting stuff, but it must not be important. I'm beat.
If you're reading this and know me personally, please remember that airplanes and telephones and video chats will be used often in the near future.
