Tired but okay

lillilahTwo days of doing things in a row has completely worn me out. This isn't a surprise. So, today, I was really low energy. On top of that, we got a call just after I got up about one of the many deliveries that were scheduled for today, so I postponed my shower until after that. It took a while to actually arrive, so I decided to postpone my shower until after the second delivery arrived, which never happened. They are now coming tomorrow. However, after days of trying to order a dehumidifier, Joel found an alternate one from a place that is more local. For 2 euros more, we could have it delivered in 2 hours, and it actually arrived in two hours. Amazing! So, now, we have some hope of our laundry drying and our place being pleasant to live in (rather than being damp, chilly, and musty). Also, the repairmen came by and declared that the entire roof must be replaced (not a surprise).
In other news, we managed to hook up with Sasha today and spent about an hour and a half sorting though our stuff in Russia in hopes of seeing some of our possessions again. We will have him send a single box to see what shows up. It isn't going to be the most thrilling things, but I will be very happy to have some of my clothing again (and a bunch of paint brushes). We have one more box to go through, which we can hopefully deal with soon.
I also painted another tree and a half on the closet box and did a bit more work on the cushion covers for the benches. However, we are running out of ribbon, so I won't be able to finish anything until we get more. I plan on hemming the tablecloth while I'm waiting. I may also make some more compression socks if I have time. As much as I'd love to make another t-shirt, I need socks more.
