I’m not really in a mental funk; just a complete lazy funk.

Someone in our Kettering neighborhood group said they needed moving boxes. I hauled up 25+ boxes, 80% of which contained 1-4 boxes, themselves.

I save the boxes for times like this; there’s always someone needing packing/moving boxes.

The multiple number of trips up and down the basement steps, plus in and out to the driveway felt like four days worth of manual labor. Just as I was finishing up, my Friday delivery gal, Mama Kay, brought over my order from China Cottage.

A box filled with history/biography books, and several Father’s Day goodies arrived from my son, Joshua, and my son-in-law, Dave, who are living in London. This made my day!

The evening is a tad muggy but the breeze does eliminate any discomfort.

It’s moving on 8:30 PM and another day is nearing its end; another day with little intended accomplishments. I’m beginning to feel like Percy Kilbride’s Pa Kettle: “I’ll get around to that one of these days.”
