Aufwiederzehn, adieu

Did you recognize the song from Sound of Music? Being my normal crazy self, we have also said a really fond farewell to the carpet in the living room. Al ( the handyman) took the old rug and the padding, the tack pieces and the little tile at the entry way and it is now in the garbage heap.
With the furniture out and the baseboard off it just seemed like a great time to paint the room as well.
Imagine if you will, Bill with his walker going through the house normally. Now put all the furniture scattered through every other room in the house and it is a real maze. All the Indian books are in boxes in the garage, chairs are in the front room and the Florida room, the bookcases in the study, the couch is in the kitchen and odds and ends on every other surface. And this will probably go on for a week !!!!!!! Can I come and live with anyone???

  2. Hee hee...Lori beat me to the punchline. That was my first "thunk". Ah well, it'll all come out in the end! AND all's well that ends well....hmmm, I'm all out of corny puns. I'm sure I'll wake up at 2 a.m. with another one but I'll keep it to myself.
