You're still very busy, Dorothy, even for someone who sounds like they intend to take it easy! I hope those meals turn out well. I found some frozen lunches I really liked and bought a bunch at the store I go to for the great bargains. Once a certain item is gone, that's it, and those were discontinued.

I turned quite red in the face in the heat this morning but I finished clearing the saplings along the back fence and tomorrow I'll drag them down to the curb for bulky waste. I'm getting a black spot on my big toenail where I thudded one of those three log pieces onto my foot two weeks ago. They have one more move - further down the curb for bulky trash.

This afternoon I visited the friend mentioned above (with the too-full trash bin) who had some boxes of fabric and notions for me and my daughter. Her three children were all there working to clear the hoarder stacks (I had worried about this but I never went so far as to contact her oldest daughter). I offered to bring home anything small & usable to put on the free stuff pages I am a member of, and in an hour of visiting they found quite a few things, maybe a cubic yard of stuff. This saves them a tiny amount of work. I also told them how to log onto the groups near them to start offering the furniture and such (now in the front yard). I've already offered some of the pots and pans (including one of mine I don't use) to a woman starting over who asked for kitchen stuff. This weekend I'll list items or take them to Goodwill.
