Gloomy Day


I am in a blah mood today. I think partly do to the weather today and partly to
do with the moving decisions. I am using my Happy Light today. I don't know why I should be concerned about any of the moving. So far Debbie has been doing all the work. She is such a blessing and such a organizer and doer. I have been filling a garbage bag with some stuff I am throwing out and if I had had some boxes I would have packed some things by my desk today but we are out of boxes again. It is terrible how much stuff I have. Debbie has filled 12 boxes already and both of my suitcases are filled with clothes plus two more trash bags are filled with clothes. In the way of furniture I have my small refrigerator, my Microwave, two nightstands, my recliner and my lounge chair and small table out on the deck. My computer and my TV will go in the car. Also I have some lamps and clocks and other small stuff.
I am leaving my Queen size bed as there is a King size bed in the bedroom I will be using. I am not moving the computer desk because I bought a new one.
The biggest decision is moving my exercise equipment. The picture above shows the equipment after Debbie, Kent and Erik put it together. Just the bike and the elliptical trainer are mine. The treadmill is Debbie's. I have been staring on and off at them all morning and everytime they seem to look larger. Debbie seems to think everything will fit in the truck and the car. I had thought about renting a U-Haul truck but Debbie and Donna say I won't need to.
Donna wants me to bring the exercise equipment. Donna has a treadmill and a bike but I don't like her bike as well. Laif is concerned about putting the exercise equipment in the truck and also concerned there will not be enough room in their basement. Donna says there will be enough room and that she and I will be organizing her basement.
I hate being a lot of trouble to people but I suppose the older I get the more trouble I will be. We are going to have plenty of help unloading. Even one of Donna's friend from Church and his son are going to help unload.
The other picture you see is my car. This is my other story for the week. I had been in Sequim for two weeks visiting Donna and she brought me back Saturday. I had to go to Safeway to get a few things. It was very hot outside so when I got in my car, I started it and turned the air conditioning on and opened the window on the driver's side to let some of the hot air out. When I went to close the window, it would not close. We took it to the KIA dealer in Renton, fortunately they were still open. They said they would get to it Monday morning. They had to keep my car in the garage because the window wouldn't shut. I called them about 11 Monday morning and the girl said the service dept would call me. They didn't, so I called again about three and they told me they would get to it first thing Tuesday morning. So this morning, the service manager called and said the regulator and something else was broken but they didn't have the part on hand but it will be here tomorrow morning and my car is supposed to be done by 5pm tomorrow. It is going to cost me $424.00 to get if fixed. There were a couple of recalls they did. I knew about them but I hadn't bothered. One was about a baby set adjustment and one with some kind of seat adjustment. He said they checked everything on the car for me and everything is fine.

  1. Don't worry! Everything will fit, and soon you will be moved. It will all work out.
