The telephone call-list indicated on Monday morning that I had missed several calls on Easter Sunday. Here is my public admission: I surrendered in exhaustion mid-afternoon. I hadn’t had a morning shower (occupied at the time) and after several trips to storage lugging boxes to haul into the shop, I just gave out.
Not to be a whiner. There were several muscles left that did not ache.
Instead of spending the remainder of the day hauling, I took a long, hot shower, bought some vegetables and cooked up an Easter evening dinner of ham, mashed spuds, fresh green beans, Philly-cream corn, and steamed carrots.
The couch called, and I didn’t miss that one – getting positioned just in time to see Bubba knock a curveball out of the forest and onto the green to win the Masters tournament. Read a little David Copperfield and fell asleep early.
Before ten in the morning on Monday, I had already brought over another couple of loads of book boxes. (The cartons are actually liquor store cardboard which have caused several passersby to wonder whether it’s a bar going in to the space. Nope. They are just a good-sized box for packing and carrying books.)
I’ve uploaded some pictures as proof that I haven’t been slacking too much. Perspective is an amazing thing. A couple of the images show the store from the front and the back with the boxes in view. In the other picture, I’ve positioned the camera so the stacks of cartons don’t show. You may click on any image for a larger view.
Hopefully, the store will soon be as organized as it appears to be in the well-positioned shot.
One of the two storage spaces is nearly empty! I have spotted the back wall and continue to search for that last box!
