One Item Down - Tons Of Items To Go

Good day.
First thing this morning I received an email from someone interested in taking my old chandelier, which I had posted on Freecycle. We made the arrangements for them to come pick it up. This gave us a little over an hour. We had just got up so we needed to get dressed etc. Hubby went down to the basement to get the chandelier, and as soon as I saw it, I knew, it needed a little cleaning up. The timing was perfect, just as Hubby was putting the last screw back in the chandelier there was a knock at the door. They were actually a couple of minutes early, but whos counting. And she was very happy with it. So yay, got rid of that damn thing, no fuss, no muss. I hated it from the minute I saw it and it was probably one of the first things to be changed when we moved in here. I had one of my own that I bought at an auction, which I love.
I've been rather domestic around here all morning. First I made egg mcmuffins for breakfast, and then I just finished making a fruit salad. We bought all the ingredients yesterday and I was stunned at the price of the strawberries. They were $4! When Hubby asked me how much they were, I told him $3, lol, that somehow seemed a little more acceptable. But I guess he'll know the truth when he reads this eh. The salad consists of cantelope, banana, peaches, bosc pears, kiwi and strawberries, yummy. And the egg mcmuffins consisted of fried egg and a cheese slice on a toasted English muffin, lol.
I've almost got the diningroom catchall, I mean table, cleared off so that I can start working on my curtains, yay. Hubby seems to think that table is a toolbox. I'm really into this de-clutter thing. I'm feeling unusually domestic today. I only wish Hubby would be more co-operative. The bugger is now laying down, having a little nap, grrrrrrr.
We were thinking of going down to see my father again today, but, I don't feel like it now. Haven't had any more news on his condition or what the problem is. I'll give him a call at some point today. I'm sure my sister will call if there is any news.
Oh yes, and if I haven't mentioned it already, Stewie did find a home, thankfully. And it wasn't with the folks who originally said they wanted him, go figure. He is with some nice people now.
Well, I'm off to do domestic things.
Have a lovely Saturday afternoon.
