Sunday Roll Call

Happy Sunday! I have a lot to do today plus we have some people coming over to pick-up a fridge and a bike that we are giving away. That will be later in the afternoon for both of those items but before that I have laundry to hang outside and a bathroom, dining room, living room and three season room to straighten up. We met up with our realtor friends last night and they answered some of our questions as to the pre sale of our house and what we need to do. It is going to be work and we knew that.

What is happening in your corner of IL?

I decided that this morning was going to be stain the new door morning. Got that done and another small paint project done. Laundry and dishes are being done now.

We went to the party in Bloomington late yesterday afternoon. It was so nice out, we were all on the patio until we left. I told Hubert we needed to have a last fire here before it gets to cold.

We are heading to Ottawa this afternoon for a birthday party for Hubert's uncle. He turns 90.

I sure wouldn't want to be moving. We have been here since 75, and I know, it would take months to sort, discard and decide what to keep.  Good luck.

Hugs,

Lisa, we were told last night that people that have been in a house as long as you and I (we have been here since May of '75) need to start clearing out your house five years before you plan to sell and move. It is not just the sorting the stuff it is also to remove wall paper, paint, repair, update landscaping then one needs to keep it all spiffy during the sale. It is overwhelming to think about it but we are motivated to get it done sooner rather than later. At least we have the winter months that you basically are held captive in the house that we can get it done.
