I'm back to work for the first time this week for three weeks. My fiancé is a night owl, and I naturally slipped into her schedule during that long, relaxing break. Wow, it was pretty darned difficult to get up to make it to work on time for the first couple of days this week!
It was a stay-cation. Didn't go anywhere. But we did get one of the major projects done!
Getting my fiancé moved in started at the beginning of April for the move at the end of May. During the week of Thanksgiving, when I was on a week of vacation, I got my paperwork caught up (yeah, more than six month's worth that had been piling up) and got all the garage sale stuff together. But the location of that stuff was the den--which, right off the main room, broke up the continuity of the main part of the house. During this vacation, all the garage sale stuff actually got moved to the garage. (And yes, I can still park two cars in my two-car garage!)
All the kitchen cabinets have been completely emptied and reorganized. All the closet shelves and cabinets in the house have been cleared and organized. All the clothes that don't get worn have been pulled from the closet racks. All the book shelves are installed and organized. All the rooms are decoarated. And the top shelf around the den (wait...excuse me...the "Captain's Quarters") now has the pirate ship and tall sail ship collection, pirate chests, and pirate booty!
The whole house--for the very first time since the idea of moving in together--is now completely organized and decorated. Now *that's* a Christmas present!!
