I love technology

I’m posting this from the comfort of my bathtub, where I’m Enjoying a fabulous bubble bath. Pardon any typos.

We got a lot of work done on the basement yesterday. Eddie cleaned the kitchen and scrubbed down everything while Mom and I went through the bedroom to clean out a tote and clean off the bed. We had thouht that we’d found all of the boxes of pictures until eddie pulled another bag filled with them from the kitchen. Not only were there several million greeting cards and photo envelopes stuffed full of pictures fresh off of Mystic Color Lab’s presses, but there was also a small wooden box filled with photos from my great-grandfather’s time along with his war medals. Nice find.

It’s much easier going through Nanny’s stuff now than it was last fall. It’s both as raw and fresh as it was back then. We’re actually able to actually throw stuff out this time around. We’re trying to get as much done as possible while we’re on vacation so we can just move stuff in come July. Hopefully in the next few weeks we ccan get some painting done down there.

It’s Tuesday, right?

Work’s still slow, even for the beginning of the month. I think it’s the rain; the elderly seem to be afraid of water and thus stay in their homes. Those people that did make it out today were all losers who managed to convince their doctors that they needed their controlled substances weeks early because they are either going on a 3 week vacation and need refills before then (bullshit, because she just got it 5 days ago and would have plenty of time to get her refill when she gets back) or my personal favorite, “my husband is going away on vacation and no one will give me a ride here to get my oxycontin”. And then there was the woman taking coupons off of one lightbulb brand and sticking them on another brand that was on sale, with her ultimate plan to do her usual buy it now then return it after she gets the mail-in rebate. She was pretty pissed when she discovered that the coupons were all expired.

Eddie cleaned the entire house today. It’s beautiful. He also did the laundry, and we’re going to spend the rest of the night watching season 1 of Lost.
