Moving Dad

In Florida with my sister to empty Dad's big house. Mom died two years ago and this huge lovely house is way more house than he needs. He put it on the market, it sold, closing is next week. Movers have been here the last three days - first to move some things to a much smaller house up in Bradenton, and then to pack and load the rest of everything else to Oklahoma. They left yesterday.

The packers we had on Tuesday were suitably thorough, but when the people showed up yesterday (a totally different crew) they complained bitterly about how slow the previous day's crew were, and how little they got done. Kathi and I tried to defend the "slow" crew, because WE knew they had been working all day and we saw how they packed - carefully, as if these were their own precious items. The "fast" packers - not so thoughtful. We'll see how everything arrives.

Other than that, it rained a frog strangler yesterday and we awoke to thunder this morning.
