thinking about the fifth of june
it feels as though it’s much to soon

Work starts next week. It’s exciting, sure, but there’s so much to do. I’m going to put up trim around the two remaining doors downstairs. It’s strange, though, because they won’t be completely surrounded by trim. Instead of an upside-down U, they’ll effectively be upside down L’s, because the doors are too close to the walls. It’s weird, but there’s not really a good way to do it otherwise. Alas! I’d like to refinish the front door, as well, but I don’t think I’m going to have time. It needs to be sanded, restained, and repoly’ed. To do that properly, I don’t even really know what I need to do to strip the old poly off first.

Then Thursday, we have bulky pickup day, so tomorrow night we have to move all our large trash out to the front curb, which includes sawing the old piece of counter in half. It’ll mean moving some trash out of the downstairs, getting rid of our old range (sitting on the back patio), getting rid of the old sink (sitting in the kitchen), getting rid of the old piece of counter, a broken drafting table (and chair), an old monitor, and I’m sure a fistful of other crap. Maybe trim can wait ’till Thursday, and tomorrow will be spent moving stuff and getting ready for trash.

Ah, and I’ve also got to break down my old desk, and create space for the piano, which is coming on Friday from my parents’ house. That’ll be fun. An upright piano, for the cost of moving it. Talk about weird.
