Clean Up Day - Laundry - Glad to be Home


April 9th - Friday - Showers this AM and cooler w/ lovely sunshine in PM

We awoke this morning to rain, so we spent some time talking and trying to decide what to do about going home and plans for when we get back home. Lou went out to the office and paid for us to stay an extra two days. We are in hopes to get the RV washed down before we leave here, however, the pollen is so bad, wonder if it will do much good.

Lou went over to the base and got his haircut and stopped at the BX for a few items, and while he was gone I did five loads of laundry and took a chance on the sun coming out again, I hung a lot on the lines, and it worked well, the sheets smelled so good when I brought them in and made up our bed fresh. I also did some extra cleaning, cleaned the upholstery in the living room, washed all of the windows inside, took up all of the registers and cleaned the duct work and replaced the clean registers, washed the walls down and did the usual weekly cleaning. Looks pretty good tonight and has a fresh smell. Will run the A/C unit the rest of the time we are out and that will keep the pollen down,

I took the rest of our ham and the bone and have it all cooking in the crock pot with 15 kinds of beans, thought it would make a good bean soup along with some corn bread, should make a nice dinner tomorrow evening. We plan to have a good work day tomorrow.

You can see from the pictures, that Estee was darn glad to be back in her own home today. The one picture shows her sitting at the door and she is watching the armadillo walk across the yard, and she is wishing that she could get to it. She got so excited that she shook.

We made an appointment for her to get a haircut on Sunday Afternoon. Our neighbor is a groomer and he said he would like to do her, so will be anxious to see what she will look like. It has been almost three months, since she has had a good haircut. Lou has trimmed her up a bit, so this will be good to have it done before she goes home. David said he wanted to bathe her also, and he does nails and teeth. Sounded like a good deal to Lou, so Sunday it is.
