Little day
It was a beautiful day with sun, little wisps of clouds, and ocean breezes. Unfortunately, I was a little sick and out of it, so I mostly stayed in and moved things out of the area where the washer and dryer are going to move indoors. They have been living in the garage, but that real estate will be needed for the heater and hot water component of our upgrade. Part of what I'm cleaning out in the area is the built-in filing cabinet. Mostly it's old, recyclable, or shredable insurance policies and such, but a chunk of it was all the paperwork I took over at the end of my Dad's life. It was pretty brutal to go through it all, but it's done. (Former self apparently just put it away for future self).
