Bits at a time.

.
.
Nothing fancy.  Some tools have been pooled, dishes have been collected and are ready to be washed.  A few of them have... oil? in them?  Something.  A couple of carafes were so gunky that I am soaking them separately.  One of them might have egg whites in it?  I just... don't know.  It got put out of sight, in something else, under more.  The other one I just... anyway.  Two out of fifty is not bad.  More since they are small items, easy to soak on their own.

A shower, shortly.  Then I'll set the main dishes to soak.  Then I'll start laundry.  I've actually been doing quite a few, if little, small, short, bits of work.  I think I will get this list of things going rather quickly too.  Further, I believe I will get the house plants in to be watered and given some hot steam to please their vegetal souls, while doing the rest.  Then?  Then I'll get outside for a bit this morning.

I would like to water everything, spray for bugs, along the outside perimeter, then put the weed spray together to see how well it works.  Salt, dish soap, and vinegar.  I'll have to find the ratios... or one set of them.  I thought it was a gallon of vinegar, an half cup of salt, and a tea- or table- spoon of dish soap?  I'd probably go with more dish soap and more salt.  I'm thinking more like two cups of salt and an half to whole cup of dish soap.  I'll then put that on the weeds growing in the cracks of my driveway.

After that?  As I suggested, more in the kitchen, then on the to main bedroom.  Perhaps a call to whoever handles disposal, to see about the costs involved with a large metal bin for a month.  I won't be ordering that, as I suggested.  Not this month.  I won't be buying the lawnmower this month either.  I can do that next month, but it's... just a bit much right now.  Too many things going on.  Should be well ready by next month.  Well, the mower.  Not sure about the larger trash bin.  I'll need time to get things ready to go anyway.  *shrug*

More and more.  I'll keep at it.  The bathroom is back in prime shape... at least until I can find the chalk line, or replace it.  Not that expensive, I just hate doing that, when I know I have one somewhere.  Time is money, and peace of mind, though, so...  Of course, what I have left to cut is easy, up and away, and only, at most, an inch of drywall.  It will clean back up just fine.  So I will probably mop sometime in the next day or two.  It would be nice to have the kitchen ready to mop as well, with the bathroom and little 'L' hall between the two ready now.

Sometime this week I would like to clear the back entrance hall, sweep, mop, and sort tools and expendables there as well.  I have various oils and varnishes, specialized bug sprays, and various things like that out there which need to be cleared.  I don't like putting that stuff in the garage, not where it might freeze.  I should go through it, though, and toss what was deemed a failure or what I no longer use, need, or want.  Then I can get my tools and bits more suitably sorted out.  Work, work, work, and more work.  But I am loving it.  Later.
