Since getting back, I've gotten busy. As mentioned, we moved Sarah from a front bedroom to a back bedroom, where the car noise is less. Now I've taken action on the library, aka the tea room (after a band of wallpaper depicting tea hardware), aka the playroom. First I tidied up Sarah's former bedroom. Then I carried box after box of stored items, many of which need further sorting of the terminal sort, into said bedroom. Then today I vacuumed the rug and then shifted two bookshelves to make more room in the room. Tomorrow I expect to move Sarah's toy boxes and bookshelf into the playroom, and that's about all I plan to do on that for a while. Well, I have to put blinds on the window, but that won't be too awful. The blinds are downstairs, just waiting, with a quiet version of that pre-shark music from Jaws.
In other news, I bought a box of Bisquick yesterday, along with some strawberries and fake whipped cream, and today Sarah and I made strawberry shortcake. As it was cooking, we ran up and down the street a little, looking for a friend of hers to share it with, but we couldn't find anybody. It was tasty. Their recipe said to mix the strawberries with half a cup of white sugar. Instead of that, I sprinkled about a teaspoon over each serving. It was still plenty of sugar.
