31st August 2018
I didn’t want to do anything today, this was the wrap-up and leave day. I decided to cut the sorry amount of grass that was not scorched to death. This only took a few minutes, I then painted the roof of the porch, and move boxes out of the main bedroom to give a bit of space for plastering.
I had one last look in the shed for the things I still couldn’t find. I managed to clear a couple of boxes, but the items were still missing.
I hope that when I return in November I will finally find a home for all my crap, or make the charity shop very happy.
I went for lunch in the town, this felt so civilised and proper, where I could sip my coffee and wait for my meal to be served. It is great to be able to walk the short distance, even though he return journey is all uphill.
I did a quick zip around with the vacuum, although dust settles on all the surfaces every day, I don’t like to let it build-up. I guess once the upstairs is plastered, I still will have to put up with it.
Locking the front door and walking down the path, driving to Barrington is something I have done since the beginning of the year, and it has become a regular thing. This time I won’t be back for two months, and I’m looking forward to going back to Holland, and seeing Kelli again.
Kelli moved her spot at Painted Farmgirl to a more predominant position, this was primarily to save on rent, but it did have the advantage of being closer to the front. She was planning to wait until after I got there to move, but decided to do it herself, and was determined to give it a fresh look with some new pieces for the start of the weekend.
Another Lifetime to go
