Light shining on furniture and me

This time the upstairs is on the move. My mom is coming to take care of Kirsten next week while W travels. The bed in the guestroom was a fold-down futon/couch under a twin bunk. The mattress on the twin is fabulous, a like-new pillow-top we bought for Kirsten before she moved. Maybe one or two guests have slept on it since.

A friend offered the loan of a hospital bed with moving head and foot for Kirsten. We gratefully accepted. So the bed she's been using downstairs moves upstairs. My house to-do list this weekend:

• Empty and sell 10 gal. aquarium (sitting mostly empty on the table where W moved it when he redid my office floors in October. Sigh.) 
• Clean and clear guestroom. 
• Put papers from desk into files (five stacks of tutorials and articles; thousands of pages... oh what a lively fire that will make some day)
• Replace glass topper on desk (leaning against the hall wall since October. Sigh.)
• Disassemble bunk and move downstairs (W's help; the bunk sold on CL so someone picks it up tomorrow.) 
• Wash K's and guest bedding.
• Vacuum K's and guest mattresses.
• Move K's bed upstairs. Redo bedding.
• Move the new bed in (W). Redo bedding.
• ETC. (Our Sunday School class comes over Sunday for lunch. Yeah, I know. You don't have to tell me.)

It's orthodox Epiphany week. I'm encouraged by thinking of the Light of the World shining into our moves, our changes, our confusion, and bringing peace. Even in the mundane must-dos, we can meditate on God and all his wonderful works.

What's in process for you, for which you need God's light and life?
