TML.....I am sorry I did not explain it very well. Staying til June to get 40 years in would get me an extra 100/month. But I think it would not be that much. Maybe 40/month. Not worth it
DS took the second dresser tonight. I was going to watch the football game at a local block party but I stayed home to empty out the dresser. I disturbed a mouse and the dog was initially scared then tried to find it. A few more clothing items/blanket ruined.
Now that the dresser is gone I am vacuuming and cleaning that area out. Wiping the walls and baseboards. I cleaned the hallway as well as DS had to move things to get the dresser out. He is tall and his arms are long and he picked up that dresser and carried it out. It was the low long dresser. My he has a big wing span.
He hasn't moved his bed yet but he is staying the night in his new apartment. Sleeping on the sofa. We can't call it an apartment as it is so small. We call it his bedroom with a sofa!!
I found the first of what I hope are several of my missing spoons. It was in my room under my dresser. I don't want to know.
Ok. I am washing my dad's clothes right now and ready to wash DS's comforter. I better get moving.
Oh, l was texting with a dear friend. Our parents have been friends for years and years. She lost her husband I think two years ago. Anyway, we decided that our goal is to be able to visit each other in each other's homes in the new year. So we are going to support each other and celebrate the small accomplishments along the way. I really think we have more in common house wise than each of us realizes.
Ok, now I am going to go flip some laundry.

hi everypony!
it was fun reading about everypony's holiday. ours was lovely. we cleaned most of it up this morning. then I visited with cousins at my parents' house. one has severe long covid and I haven't seen her in a while. then back home to do some unpacking of the guest bedroom/office, as we have a guest!
have a long table full of stuff that doesn't have homes yet. LD and DVD want to do Christmas, but I told them not until we put this away. I don't want to decorate "over" it. I'm such a meanie.
LD fixed us leftover plates and I started eating dessert. 3 is here and the house is not kid proofed. It is not bad, but he is taller than he was when he left! He is big for his age. Talking much better, which is a relief.
so there is a lot of "don't touch" going on, and he is melting down at the moment. time for the headphones!
overall I am feeling fat and happy and grateful. and sleepy!
I also lost DVD's birthday present. we were saving it for when LD was here. it is an apple watch. I hope I find it!

MLS---Glad you had a lovely Thanksgiving ! Hope you find that watch !
Although I had a great day yesterday, I am finding I'm grateful tonight to just be at home alone, on the computer, connecting with my good friends here. Peaceful.
Just finished tidying the kitchen counter.
