Moving house

Or more correctly bedrooms.

When Lionel and Marj left for Australia, they bequeathed their rooms to me! I had the induction and quickly became aware of the benefits of moving into the airconditioned rooms.
Wednesday after school we had the fun task of moving the beds around, from this room into that room, and then the other furniture into the other room! It was quite exhausting work, and i was very thankful for the help of Sunder and others while the move was in progress. I stood guard the with broom. Everything gets so dusty in India so quickly, so I tried my hardest to remove all cobwebs and dust as the furniture was moved.

Then I began the momentous job of cleaning the kitchen. by the end of the night there was nothing in the kitchen that had not been washed, wiped, dusted, or had water slosh over the surface. Sunder was the best for helping. He showed up at exactly the right time, and asked me if I needed any help. By the end of it all, I think he was glad to be out!
Sad facts are, that although I know everything has been cleaned recently, the dust is already beginning to settle on the electronic devices after only a week.
