Dumpster is Gone

 The dumpster left on Wednesday.
Rod has been home all week.
He called in "sick" (of work). 
Hahaha.
He has a very understanding boss.

Meanwhile, 
the realtor put up our "official"
coming soon sign.


We were hoping to get it on the market this weekend,
but Kyle's Cat had to go in the shop and won't be
back until early next week and so that
means we can't move his heavy equipment out
of the barn until then.

They are going to do some drone flyover and fly-through
shots for the website.

Yesterday Rod went back to work.
(And today he is off again for Good Friday...)
Kyle and I went to the eye doctor and
he got some distance glasses since he will
be doing more cross-country runs in the next
month and it would be nice to be able
to read the signs.

It wasn't MUCH of a correction, but driving
home from the eyeglass place he was
AMAZED at how clearly he could see.
LOOK! There are HOUSES on the other
side of the river, not just blobs!
(Our river is a mile wide...)
He was so excited!
He said "Maybe YOU should be driving,
I'm having too much fun just looking around
and seeing ALL THE THINGS!"
Hahahaha.

No picture of them though.
You know how he is about pictures of him.

Anyhow.
We also went to the mall to replace his
beloved Chucks (shoes).
His were SOOOO worn out.
He got two pair this time.
Some fun green and white ones for
everyday wear and his typical black
and white for "good".


So fun.

We also signed up to deliver a meal to
a new move-in family who also just
had a new baby last week.
They are gluten free, so I just made a
crustless ham and broccoli quiche,
a green salad and some pistachio coolwhip
pudding for desert.
(Green was the theme of the day.) 

Rod is in the kitchen hopefully
repairing the leak in the RO system.
(Reverse osmosis - for the water in 
the kitchen sink...)
He tried to fix it before but didn't have
all the right parts. Bought more but 
they didn't work either.
He has a friend at work who gave him
the right stuff and he just popped into
my zoom room to tell me
"so far, so good!"
YEA!
We have been buying bottled RO water.
It's cheap. $5 for 4 of those giant
5-gallon bottles. But it's a pain to go get
them and then load them into the machine.

We will be taking the water machine with
us to WaKeeney though. Kyle said the water
that comes out of the tap leaves much
to be desired.
(And it's city water, so it probably has
chlorine and stuff in it. Ugh.)

I climbed up on the little step stool
and painted some Kilz on a couple of
spots on the ceiling in the laundry room
and in our bedroom.

Kyle is going to mow the front yard.
A typical pre-move get lots of things done
kind of day.
All while listening to Christ centered music
in my earbuds to help me keep my mind
focused on the sacrifice made by our Savior
on this day.
