At 12:45 AM, I officially completed this spring’s major project of redoing three rooms completely. Not only did I completely redo three rooms, I completely moved three rooms as well. It was a lot of work but well worth it. It is very comfortable, and I have tons of additional room. I am satisfied with all three rooms, however, the study is my favorite. It is so much more roomier and comfortable.
I spent $28 in paint, and $10 for a rubber strip where I can conceal cords on the floor. Everything else, in the way of curtains, pillowcases, comforters, and other little essentials were already here in the house. What is amazing is how everything feel so brand-new.
The dogs are all settled in the room. Not be it’s up in bed with me, snuggling in her usual spot. Chief and Snickers are both on the floor snuggle next to one another on their blankets. Flyer, though very energetic and perky throughout the day, seems very low in energy tonight. She opted to remain downstairs. Normally she leads the charge upstairs each night, but tonight she didn’t even budge.
I should take care of the weed guard in the side garden where I have hostas. However, I think tomorrow I shall spend time out on the deck reading and doing other things that interest me. I have a major writing project to complete, and several ready to begin. I think tomorrow would be a good day to commence with these projects.
In a little over two hours it will be the 26th anniversary of my uncle Ron’s death. I was enjoying the last few days of the Ball State University chamber choir’s tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. We arrived home in Muncie Indiana in the wee hours of the morning on the same day as his funeral.
June, the month filled with much energy as spring welcomes summer, is often filled with sad memories. I lost my two favorite uncles in the month of June; Uncle Ron on June 8 and Uncle Garry at the end of June in 2002. I also lost my beloved grandparents in June: Grandma Donna on June 27, 1992, and Grandpa Leroy on June 3, 2004.
However, life does go on, and I was so blessed to have these four people in my life.
