Preparing

My long weekend at home was lovely.  I bought groceries, cooked, vacuumed, practiced, normal activities.  I also had lunch with friends both Friday and Saturday, and dinner with one on Thursday.  The choir sang beautifully Sunday.  And Randy and I made progress in our preparations for e and her parents' arrival next Monday.  Although our house has four bedrooms, only one is used daily for sleeping since our girls moved out.  The biggest one (the green room) is our TV room, one is my sewing/scrapbook in room, and one (the blue room) has a twin bed and our horns/practice materials.  Two daughters painted their rooms years ago, so now they are known by their colors instead of "Sarah's room" or "Emily's room," partly to help us all realize things change.  K sleeps in the blue room when he comes up on business.  We added a small crib and bed to that room; we moved the desk into the green room so E can work while e naps.  I brought our old high chair into the house from the garage and cleaned it up so e will have a perch while I work in the kitchen.

Last night we went to a Japanese restaurant for dinner to celebrate some good news K received at work, then we moved furniture to prepare for the carpet cleaners who came this morning.  While the carpets are drying e and I are hanging out in the kitchen/dining room.

There may be another post later today, but right now e and I need to read a book.
