Tuesday, November 24, 2015

     Today was a busy day.  I woke up when the alarm went off at 920am, and laid there petting the cat and talking to hubby for another 15 minutes.  Then I got up and got dressed and headed off to therapy to talk to Steve.  It's been two weeks since I've seen him and a lot has happened.
     I spent the whole session explaining all the bad stuff that has happened.  Finding out we are infested with bedbugs, Sunshine dying and the sewer backing up twice.  Then I told him all about my wonderful daughter and her husband and all that Cassie and Drew did for me on Saturday.  It was and still is amazing!  Next week we are going to talk about how I can go about starting to get over being mad at Frank for the bedbugs.  Which is really hard because I have given him two sets of sheets so he can strip his bed and comforter and wash them everyday.  And vacuum his room every day.  And he hasn't done it once.  So tomorrow, I'm going to start striping his bed, vacuuming his room and even wash the bag of clothes he has had sitting on the floor next to the washer but hasn't done.  But I have been doing laundry non-stop so maybe he just hasn't been able to have access to the washer and dryer.  But I'm determined to eradicate these bedbugs and the infestation is in his room, it needs constant action.  I'm going to strip his bed and tape up any holes in the plastic mattress bag we put on it.
     After therapy I came home and relaxed for a little.  Then I started laundry.  Only three loads today.  I got the dressers clean out and vacuumed in our room and got the clothes redistributed into bags that would fit in the dresser drawers.  I got both mine and hubby's done.  Extra clothes are in bags in the closet on the floor.  Both doors are shut and will stay that way.  I got all the sets of sheets bagged individually and double twistie tied and put in my trunk.  I put another comforter in the trunk too.  I got everything out of the craft room and it looks as good as when Cassie and Drew cleaned and organized it.
     Tomorrow I am attempting to make my own creation of a jello salad.  I got 5 boxes of cranberry jello.  I'm going to chop fine apples, celery, pineapple (canned), and walnuts.  I've also got some cool whip but not sure how I'm going to incorporate that.  We have been invited to my sister, Laura's, for Thanksgiving dinner so we are taking this jello salad and a beef roast that hubby is going to rotisserie.
     I have to decide if I am putting the jello salad in a 9x13 pan to set then unmold it onto a big platter, put the jello salad in two jello molds and unmold them onto a big platter, or just put the jello salad in the 9x13 pan and let them dish it up that way.  Haven't decided.
