Tipsy Tuesday

This month I seem to have family and friends that are all doing big moves.. So I thought this might help them out a bit with there packing and that is to colour coordinate.
 Designate a colour for each room in the new home, such as yellow for kitchen, orange for dining room, etc. Apply colored stickers on the box.. In your new home.put a matching sticker on the door to each room. The movers or your friends and family that are helping  will know where to put everything when they arrive at the new place. It's also helpful to post a big sign on the wall in the room where you want boxes stacked, ("Boxes here please") to keep them out of furniture and traffic areas. It seems like a lot of work but believe me on moving day it is going to save so much time.. more time saved more time for Pizza and beer...

Hoping my friend Marilyn had a good sleep she came and helped me work yesterday and had an accident with her finger.. We sat in emergency here in Duncan for 3 hours but they fixed her all up after a few stitches so as they say time will tell as to how well it heals.

Enjoy
