When time has lost all meaning

I am exhausted. And so sick of my whining. I was really whiny last night as we were working on finishing up the duplex. There's still a little bit of stuff left, but it's all in the kitchen and dining room. The rest of it is out. Justin's working on getting loads during the day, and then we'll meet back at the duplex after work to get the rest of it and drop off the keys. I realized that while yes, I am tired and sore, it's not to the point where I can't keep lifting stuff. It's those *stairs* that are the problem. They suck! So glad I'm not living there anymore. Being done with it today will feel like a major accomplishment.

Another major accomplishment: I finished the subfloor! Okay, there are still places that need screws, but they're covered with stuff at the moment, so I'll have to get to them when I can. But all the pieces are cut and in place, and the majority of it has been screwed down. And it feels so sturdy and amazing. Between that and the drywall being up, I feel really great about our chances for getting the addition ready to hold stuff by the end of Saturday. The walls are still going to need a lot of work, but it's doable.

We're going to put the kitchen floor down tonight, and I'm going to try to get the doors and drawers back in place, too. Then we can move the plastic barrier from the kitchen doorways to the point between the kitchen and the addition. Having another room almost be complete will be great, and if we can get it fully done by Thursday, when the new fridge is delivered, it will be awesome. I am so sick of fast food and really want to be able to start cooking again.

There is also a weird thing where we won't have a fridge for two days, so I can't bring any of the stuff from the old house to the new house. I'm actually kind of excited about just going and buying new stuff - new ketchup, new jar of minced garlic, that sort of thing. I wish I had a way of keeping all the stuff in the freezer, but it seems crazy to try to move it to someone else's fridge and then to mine. If anyone wants free frozen pizzas, be at my old place at 5pm today. The ice cream is mine, though. If I can find where the spoons are at.
