It seems like it just was Friday. Dad and I were both rather under the weather a lot of the week. We have this virus that is going around and we just can’t seem to shake it. It has a cough and I, for one, start coughing at the most inopportune moments. I just skipped New Auburn choir Monday, because I knew singing would set me off coughing. I finally feel like I’m getting over it today, but I still have cough drops in my pocket. Dad’s went into his head, so he’s been dealing with a stuffy head, too. Fortunately mine just stayed in my chest. But he has been sick two weeks longer than I have, so it has been almost 6 weeks for him.

I finally did a good cleaning of the house yesterday. It really needed it. I don’t know why it gets so dusty here, but it does. And with so little floor to walk on, the floors get pretty dirty pretty fast. But I also did cabinet fronts and dresser tops and things like that, so everything is sparkling clean for a couple days, at least.

Dad brought another load of stuff from Grandma’s, when he was down for the funeral, and we have to find a place to put it all this weekend. One thing is a second chest freezer which will go in the basement once we redo the steps, but for now it will have to go in the fitness studio. I really need it though – I can’t fit one more thing in the freezers we have after all the squash I froze!

I’m hoping it is nicer tomorrow, because I have one 4 foot section of the picket fence to paint yet and we won’t get many more chances before winter. Have a great weekend, everybody!
