Things That Must Happen

We are going to get the "word" regarding Mr F's job in Asheville either tomorrow or Monday. The owners don't call you from their vacation to tell you they aren't interested if you know what I mean.

I'm filled with anxiety and sadness. It's easier to focus on the anxiety...

Here are the things we need to get done this weekend:

• Buy stainless oven... we've already got a fridge & dishwasher... and the weird 80s cream stove is an EYESORE.


• Scrape off large flaking paint chips off porch and re-paint (wishful thinking)


• Mulch, mulch, mulch... instantly looks like we know what we're doing in the garden (right?)


• Buy hanging baskets... never too soon to ramp up the curb appeal


• Spray for ants... sorry Baby but your little friends are going "bye bye"


• Order dumpster
