Friday, the 13th!

Whew, what a day!  Yesterday the appointments I had lined up for today were:  Friend coming by at 10:00 a.m. to bring dog crate; 10-11 a.m. shipping company coming to pick up items for shipping;
1-2 p.m. carpet cleaners coming to clean bedroom carpets. Last night my friend called and said she couldn't make it till about 1p.m. and the shipping company called and said they'd be at the house between 1-2 p.m.  So, needless to say, I was a little stressed out this morning thinking everyone was going to be at the house at the same time!

I spent the morning cleaning, cleaning, cleaning!  The only room that needs a little more care is the kitchen. The countertops and table just need to be cleared off....

The carpet cleaners called around noon and said they could come earlier than planned, which was great!  While they were here my friend texted and said she'd be here around 3:30p.m., and the shipping company called and said they were going to be a little later than planned.

The shipping company got here around 3:30 p.m. and took all of our belongings to be shipped. We aren't shipping much....just our Sleep Number bed, my sewing machine and a few household items. They will put it all in a crate, wrap it up and ship it overseas!  It'll take 4-6 weeks to receive it. We'll have to pick it up at the ports in Rotterdam.

After everyone left I went over and got a pair of shoes repaired, and dropped off the Keurig coffee machine at a friend's house. I never use it and she said she'd like to have it...so it's now hers!
