All the news that's fit to whatever

Yesterday we took the cats traveling for the first time. BC did very well. He whimpered once, then settled in and went to sleep. Abby Darlin' wound herself up and before we hit the 1 mile mark she had thrown up and 1/4 mile later ... she ... you know. LOL! We rolled the windows down, opened the moon window and drove home - where we washed Abby, her towel and her cage. Hope trip #2 goes better. hehehe

I now have the china cabinet cleaned out, so the dining room is almost done. I have to pack the last few things, and then make up a box of items to send to my aunt in Illinois and I can check the dining room off my list. :)

The loan inspector for the buyer arrived early this morning, was alone and not very friendly. He took a few pics, measured a few things and was gone in 10 minutes. Whatever.

Had our appointment with the mover on Monday. He came back on Tuesday with his bid, and it's within our budget. We are happy. He even bought Mr. Retired's little putt-putt-boat for $20. Saves us having to move it 'cuz' it's too small for the ocean. :) Oh yeah, after inventorying the house, he said as long as we don't "coast" too early, we should make our target date of 10/15!!!!! Yippee! Anyone want to come help us pack? LOL!

Went over and said goodbye to a friend today. She's going to San Francisco to live and go to design college. *sniffle* Someday we'll be reading about her making a splash in the world of graphic design. :)

I'm still plugging away on my popcorn ripple and starting to hate it. Maybe I should have left one of those other projects unpacked? ;-)

Visited with a friend yesterday, and we talked about how the Lord has truly blessed this move. Everything just seems to fit together. We know there may be obstacles ahead, but we are rejoicing in all that has taken place and we know that God will see us through any obstacles as well.

"Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever and ever. Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name."--1 Chronicles 29:10-13
