Lately life has been interesting, and not just pandemic related.
My elderly dog, Ella, is now nearly completely blind. It means that this weekend will involve a project adding more boards to the railings on my deck in order to protect her from falling off the edge. She's still pretty spry and independent, but those edges come up quickly and the fall (I'm sure) hurts each time it happens.
Another project this weekend is DAR related. I have to try to work ideas for how we can "keep the lights on" at Fort Winnebago Surgeons Quarters. The Surgeons Quarters is owned by the Wisconsin Society Daughters of the American Revolution. It's a small museum that is run mostly by volunteers (and one staff member). With no tours currently happening, there's no income being generated. So, we've taken on the project of coming up with creative ways to bring in some extra cash. I'll be brainstorming a lot this weekend, but I'm sure the best ideas will come randomly as I work on other things!
With a three day weekend coming up, I'm looking forward to some time to organize some areas around my house. I've always wanted to arrange all of my books by author, and then by publication date and series order (keeping the series together). It would take a while, but I think it would feel so rewarding when it's complete. Another organizing project I need to tackle is going through some of the older totes and boxes that have been through multiple moves with me. These items either need to be unpacked or removed from the house (through donations, sales, or trash).
What will you be working on this long weekend?
