I Like Mondays

I like Mondays. I like getting things back on track from the weekends that are more loosely lived. I like the routine.

Duff and Josh took out all the food storage from one set of cupboards in the small garage where we are consolidating everything. Then they put 3 new shelves in. Now the weight will be distributed more evenly and I will be able to see, use, rotate, and restock much more efficiently. They will do that to another bank of cupboards at the end of the week, once I get this one put back together.

Now the task is to assess and get rid of the expired things. I found bisquick that I had done in mylar bags from 2000. Yikes. In the garbage they went. I didn't even bother to open and check inside! I got rid of the kudos (!) bars, and 6 year old powdered eggs. Also the pudding mix, fruit drink mix, and hot chocolate. Fortunately I didn't have many cans of those so it didn't hurt too much! I'm happy to report that so far, everything else (the big staple items: wheat, flour, milk, rice, sugar, oats, beans) is still good.

Duff went with Josh to Ontario to settle in for the bar exam this week. OH. I'm so nervous for him. If you have a minute please pray for him with us, 'k?
