Different Days

 My normally scheduled life is a little less scheduled these days.

Frequent phone calls from builders, banks, or realtors.

Being available to show the house to prospective renters.

Packing when I think I may have no more use for an item in this location.

Right now, I am blogging in the garage as I wait on the landlady to do 2 showings.

It does help me keep the place clean, but I do hope that the house rents soon.

This is the second group of 2 prospectives in the last 2 weeks.

Last week, the showing was just before church on Wednesday night - 

not quite convenient for getting out the door.

I got a lot done over the weekend.

Hubby was doing some last-minute family visiting up in Washington,

and I stayed to continue packing, sorting, and finishing up church responsibilities.

It sure was nice to have him home after 4 quiet days.

Hubby announced his departure from work yesterday.

Praise the Lord that they are going to let him work right up until the end!

They are even having a little cookout for him on the last day.

It is turning more "Spring-y" every day.

We are enjoying the daffodils, hyacinths, and crocus.

The color is so welcome after the grey winter.

The warmer weather invites me to walk to town,

which is a blessing since I am not doing large shopping trips but merely an as-needed shopping.

The longer days give us more energy.

Speaking of grocery shopping,

I went through the pantry while hubby was gone and made a list of meals to use up many canned foods.

I cannot assign a day to each item,

but here is what we will be eating for the next 2 weeks.
