Taking Advantage of the Heat Wave!

I suppose there's something to be said for this hotter than usual weather. I find myself taking care of outdoor things early in the day or late in the evening; that means the things in the house that I've been happily putting off are now getting done during the part of the day when it's too hot to be outside and I haven't done enough to warrant a nap.

My coffee table rug has been shampooed and is outside drying. I've taken the coffee table apart (no easy task) and the base is waiting for me to paint it. Today, I tackled a back bedroom/office that had become a catch-all (again) and I'm pleased to say, "I won". Tomorrow I'm emptying cupboards & shelves in the laundry room. The idea is that less than half will make it back in and, when that's done, the freezer needs defrosting.

And then ... this heat wave has to break. Or, I need to pay more attention to my roomies and learn from them. They're all laying on the wood floor under the ceiling fans waiting for evening when I open the house and hopefully we can all sit outside for a bit.
