Working more slowly than I would like.....

So, I have made some strides in getting unpacked from Fancy Gap.  Today I got the suitcases put back up in the attic.  I wanted to find the small box of Button Flower holders that I had put upstairs.  Plus, I was tired of skirting around the pile of travel bags at the door to the attic.  So, I moved the vacuums and ventured up the stairs.

The travel bags are now waiting for either a trip in July to see my brother and his family or my youngest son in Minñeapolis.  I took a couple of minutes and brought down, not only the Button Flower containers, but a few empty boxes, some purses and briefcases along with a box full of spa slippers that I had gotten to embroider but never did.

I went through the purses to make sure they were empty.  Took them out into the Elantra.  I then replied to an online yard sale and bought a single bottle wine cooler.  I sometimes find that I would like a particular bottle of wine only to find it warm.  I thought it might be a nice gadget to have.  So I picked it up around 4:00 PM and then headed to the 10 & 41 Thrift Shop to donate the attire finds to help benefit the Lions.  I might not be a member any more, but I can still support their projects through donations.  While there, I was given a. Outlet of aprons to embroider for them and got to chat with my neighbor, who was volunteering there.

I have been moving very slowly lately.  I am just not feeling on top of the world.  I imagine it is a let down from the mountain trip and reunion.  But I feel like I am moving like a slug on the cement walks in the summertime.  I did laundry yesterday.  All of my clothing and sheets plus two blankets. I also had to remake my bed.  But I find I run out of energy mid day and getting motivated at all is hard.  I hope this is temporary.  I have lots of things I would like to do and a lot of things that need to be done... Just look at my "to-do" list!

But I manage to get farther along everyday, anyway.  So I am continuing my forward journey to my 'new normal'.
