well hello blog

Not so good at the blogging for quite a while. I feel like my summer vacation has finally begun--but it is almost August, so much of it has already gone by. My thought of the day is that I knew I was a planner and like to know what is happening when, but I'm not sure how much I realized it bothers me to not know. I don't know when I'm moving for sure. Some time in the next 3 weeks it seems. I really don't like this not knowing. I am sick of having things in boxes and I really didn't get much packed until Thursday so it has only been four days. Unfortunately it seems that my response to the unknown right now is to be whiny and complain. I'm trying to work on that.
In other interesting news, I have either hit upon the laziest or best way to clean the downstairs bathroom. There was a fair bit of mold and mildew in the shower--not having exhaust fans in the bathroom leads to this problem. I like using Tilex mold and mildew remover because you don't have to scrub and it really works. The problem is that there isn't a good way to rinse that shower because unlike mine upstairs, the shower head is fixed. Today I decided, after 8 years of living here, that I wasn't going to try to rinse the walls with a cup. Instead, I found the nozzle for the hose (which involved crawling under a nasty table in the shed--really gross) and decided to drag the whole thing inside through the dining room and kitchen to the bathroom. Once I found a washer and installed it to stop the nozzle from leaking, it worked beautifully, the shower is so much cleaner and it was fun to do. Of course I still have a hose running through the house which is not ideal--probably should go do something about that.
