Day 12 of the Moving Adventure.
Took the holiday weekend off from moving, downsizing, cleaning and fretting about being a homeless person. Rusticated for 48 hours on Lake Anna. I did nothing. Carlton did everything. A good time was had by all.
Among the house guests was Hobie, a seriously old dog. Hobie is blind, deaf, and unable to climb stairs or get into a boat or SUV. But, he didn't appear to be in any discomfort - other than some arthritis. Almost everyone got into the spirit of turning the whole house into a large doggie hospice. Hobie even went with us on the boat to see the fireworks. (Do not attempt this with a dog that can hear or see!)
And today I started back with the downsizing. I am now downsizing things that I downsized earlier. Apartments really aren't very large. And stuff will only make them smaller. This move is all about having less.
