Linn, can the glassware go someplace completely different for a while? Like on top of the fireplace mantle or lining the front of bookcases? Just to give you breathing room to fix the cabinet?

I did some work around the house then moved out once the heat was subsiding, and have been trimming stuff to put on the curb Monday for trash pickup. Things like the hard stems from the huge wild sunflowers and branches that don't break down in the compost go to the curb for now. I've started trimming and have cleared a path to get started mowing. (I also scrubbed the bird baths and trimmed around one so the birds know it's there now.)

Tonight I'll label and put the jelly away, and that will clear up a kitchen counter. I still need to empty the kitchen table of all of the canning stuff. I'm tempted to start swapping out tables again one of these days and put a different one in the kitchen that is big enough I can slide it up under the window for a nice view but it's long enough that the light that hangs over it won't be a hazard for anyone over about 6'.

Still to do: shopping, laundry. I don't think there's going to be much time in there for viewing the Olympics. Good thing it lasts for a long time! I'll see some of it.
