Just checking in with a quick post. Awfully tired today. Seems like it's been a long day.
Daughter checked in - her FIL does have Covid, her MIL is being tested, daughter's friend A has also tested positive for Covid. A was over at daughter's house on Sunday. Daughter and Husband have tested negative, both are fully vaccinated and boosted. Daughter has ordered more tests so they can keep an eye on themselves.
Husband hurt himself at work. Not badly, thank goodness. He took off the pads of two fingers. He is quite sore and bandaged up.
Went to Jane's - cousins came over and took some more of the genealogy.
I will check in on other blogs, reply to comments tomorrow. I'm off to bed.
26/365 Phone Photo - Things That Make Me Smile
A little bit of a cheat as this is a collage. But I was so happy that all this genealogy has gone to a new home. I am sure Jane would approve. She would be glad that someone else is getting to enjoy all her hard work.
Ouch, your poor hubby. How did he do that? That book case is gorgeous and would make brilliant shoe storage.
ReplyDeleteJane has a lot of bookcases in her house - there have to be at least fifteen or more. They are lovely, but they will have to go. It was a workplace accident with an electric knife. Ouch!
DeleteOh, I do hope your daughter and her husband continue to test negative!
ReplyDeleteWow! what a big difference in bookshelves before and after! A job well done!
I was really pleased to see them go and to know that the person who took them appreciated them.
DeleteOh, dear and ouch. Your family is really going through it, health wise, at the moment. Fingers crossed for daughter and other half.

Thanks!
DeleteSending hugs. It's not surprising that you're tired, that is quite a lump of stuff that you've had to deal with. Hope you have a good night's sleep.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Last night was better sleep until about 1am, then I was suddenly wide awake.
DeleteI do hope your daughter hasn't caught the virus and that her in-laws recover quickly.
ReplyDeleteThat was a lot of genealogy research and it's great news that a cousin has taken all of it. I'm sure Jane would be pleased to know that.
Thanks. They are still doing ok.
DeleteI'm so glad the cousin was able to take it - makes me feel good!
Sorry to hear that so many are impacted by the virus and that your husband was injured. His injury sounds very painful. Hope healing happens very soon.
ReplyDeleteThink your collage photo of the before and after clearing deserves a place in things that make you smile. It surely represents an enormous amount of work--both for Jane (thankfully passed on to an interested party) and, ultimately for you and your MiL in clearing the shelves.
Thank you.
DeleteIt is hard work going through another person's belongings. I know that Jane would have been happy that her passion and hard work went on to someone who will appreciate it and enjoy it as much as she did.
Sorry to hear about all the Covid. The bookcase!! Great job finding the "right" home for all that!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a big challenge. I don't know how you do it all the time. I feel as though I want to make sure things that Jane treasured are treasured by other people, but I know that, at some point, we're going to have to just let go.
