Huh.....

IT'S FINALLY FRIDAY!!

It's finally Friday and I am churning up the to-do list for the weekend. Believe me -- it's lengthy!

Tonight Eric and I are going to the marsh/condo after work to place tarps over all of the furniture, pack the rest of our stuff to live at his Moms for a month, make sure trash and food are all stored away and not stinking. The pipe guy is supposed to be done with the plumbing today but since he's literally repiping the entire condo with a better, safe piping system, he's had to cut in to walls, ceilings, etc. Almost making more damage -- but for the good of the condo.

I think Eric is about to give up on the carpet. It's currently in the back yard of his parents house attempting to dry. But the issue is, once it's dried, where to we store it until we can reinstall it? It's 700 square feet of carpet! We'll have to put up walls, paint, etc. before it would be wise to reinstall the carpet. Ya know?

So the clothes. The day of the flood there were clothes, separated by color, waiting to be washed and placed in piles on the floor. Of course after the water was up to 2" they were all sopping along with the towels that were the closet with the pipe that exploded, and the bathroom rugs, etc. So I just threw them in the tub to drip and in an effort to get every thing OFF the carpet. 4 days go by and the clothes, still wet, were starting to stink. Last night Eric brought most of them over to his Moms so we could wash them but the smell was so bad they put them out in the yard. My undies are scattered around the yard like little colorful thong Easter eggs.

Today I'm wearing Eric's Fender t-shirt, grubby jeans, and tennis shoes. Sexy is clearly NOT my middle name. Nor my first. Not even my last. No. Productive With Foot Protection is my name today. But come tonight, Eric and I are going to see a friends band play and we're going to let loose. Give one final surrender to the week while sipping on a few cocktails. BRING_IT_ON!

Tomorrow is my last day to clean, purge, move stuff in/out of the condo before Renter #2 shows up. Eric can't help now since our other home is in need so alone I'll have to:

1. Touch-up cleaning in the condo
2. Pack my storage stuff to bring to Mom & Dads for the winter
3. Bathe Dinah
4. Buy & reinstall air filter
5. Buy new pillows for condo
6. Look at cost of new sheets for condo
7. Go to Good Will to drop off donations
8. Donate books to the library
9. Be there at 2pm when carpet cleaners arrive
10. Return one fan
11. Install one dehumidifier
12. Leave mail keys for new tenant
13. Leave condo book for tenant
14. Get lease and emergency numbers ready for tenant

So! That is the shit I've got to do in a nut shell!

Saturday night it's Holly and Me time. We're treating ourselves to a nice dinner and drinks and then maybe hitting up the hot tub!

I won't be blogging this weekend. I'll let you know how my progress goes.

Stay dry!
