When Worlds Collide

The colliding worlds (right now, at any rate) are the world of trying to get this house ready to sell so we can leave Dodge and the world of trying to get the house and our lives ready for Pesach, which starts in about 8 days. Some of the goals of these two tasks are compatible -- like cleaning up the place. Sometimes the Pesach goals take priority over the getting-out-of-Dodge goals.

So today, in the interests of making room for our regular (non-Pesach) dishes to be moved out of the kitchen, we moved boxes without going through them. We moved them from the garage, where they have been languishing ever since we emptied the storage locker:
 To the new shed (not to be confused with the New new shed, which is still dysfunctional):
At the end of the process, we still had lots of room in the New Shed (which made me wonder why we thought we needed a New New Shed):
And there were three empty shelves in the garage that were also accessible because the boxes in front of them had been moved:
The upshot of all this is that there probably won't be much to report here for a week or so because getting ready for Pesach now takes precedence over everything else. I may, however, share some ruminations that have been tumbling around in my head recently. You never know.

Oh, right. And one more thing. Media Guy and Future Vet will be coming home at the end of the week for their Spring Break/Pesach vacation. Future Vet's room has been made presentable for him. The room that Media Guy uses, which is used by the Drama Queen when he is at school, is back to chaos:
The Drama Queen has been informed that this room must be spotless by no later than Thursday. Let's see what happens.

And I get to try out a new toy this week!
We'll see if it really cleans up pet spots, as advertised. Stay tuned.

  1. After Pesach, you should go back to taking pictures of Media Guys room. It seemed to keep it cleaner.

    Good luck for cleaning.
