Spring Cleaning In Winter--Part 2.

11:00 Sunday morning.

Prepare!

Valances down-ready to clean windows and put up new blinds

How am I going to get to that middle window?

Can't move the desk--it weighs 8 tons

Maybe I can walk along the window sill?

Stuffed dirty paper towel into wastebasket.

Broken glass in there--time out to get bandaged up.

First blind up--an inch too short! 

Concentrate on filling shelves back up

 

 Cups and saucers from Mother and GrandMother's china

Lenox porcelain birds I collected 40 years ago 

Indian doll 70 years old, other Indian art from the Four Corners

a bowl of feathers I have collected and a pile of rocks

from my trip out west, plus a bird's nest 

Scale model of my first car, wooden duck carved by old

Japanese friend--as well as Loon 

Take down lower curtains to wash--don't like them off for

too long--don't want people driving by to see my electronics 

Time out to watch this 

Lower curtains back up

Now to tackle this side of study 

Monday-10:00 a.m.

To exchange blinds

Color cartridge for printer 

Rich People's store for cake and salad 

For some artificial flowers for jug 

 Blinds installed, clean curtains all back up, driftwood dusted!!

I found I could get to the middle window by, walking along the window ledge

and then bracing my calves against the desk.

I am so tall, my head kept bumping the driftwood, so I had to scrunch down

BUT

it is done!!!

Now--to put this room back together.  I still have too much stuff, but maybe it is organized better?

Snowing like a blizzard out there--3-5 expected.  I don't care, I have enough work inside to keep me busy.
