Again, this room mate person of mine is pushing the limits here. She had a huge garage type sale in the barn (think BIG barn, full of junk) and now there are assorted items scattered throughout the back here.
I had reminded her that this week was the all cleaned up deadline, due to the renter arriving today. But, no........I can see an assortment of junk from the house, and apparently there is a pile of 'good stuff' behind the barn too. So, my morning will be spent tidying up. I'm going to freecycle anything I have to move myself. The things I can't move..........I have no idea how to handle.
Frustrating to say the least. Fixable, yes. And, NO, she can't move out. She is a fixture here, isn't able to live on her own, so thanks, but that solution is out of the question. Having her here does have benefits, I just need to remind myself of those while I'm out back today!
My coffees finished here.........time to get to work for the day. It's cool here this AM (52!!!) so I'll get the outside chores done right away....then, it is sewing room time for me again. I've got many jobs from new customers yesterday. Judging from the responses I've been getting, I don't think there is anyone else that sews in this county!!!
A no spend day........ making money as I sit & sew! My kind of day!

I told the boys that no one is going out anywhere today.
In fact my little female gray cat(Thunder) was suffering so badly that she was just laying in the house on the floor panting. I had to get a hand towel, soak it in cold water, wring out the excess, wrap her in it and hold her in my arms for 30 minutes before she cooled down. That afternoon SO "threw in the towel", said we were going to cork it up, and turn on the a/c. Everyone was eager to close windows, and help out. Within minutes we all started feeling the cool air flowing thru the house.
I know we are going to have a sky high electric bill for this month, but there is no way during this heat wave we can afford to turn the a/c off. According to the weather reports on tv, and the weather forecast on Yahoo,
it's going to be a heat wave until at least Saturday or Sunday. Ugh!!!!!
