it looks like were moving.

not just because of that but in part, i am getting rid of as much stuff as possible. today's load to the used book store was five orange boxes (not boxes orange in color but boxes that used to hold oranges from the grocery store.) four cloth shopping bags, and one plastic shopping basket i accidentally liberated from target.
Yesterdays stuff was three huge garbage bags of clothing and other miscellaneous wearable items like purse and stuff.

today we go see the house were looking at, i already drove past it and looked at the outside. its darling. today we get to look at the inside. the realtor were working with says it need work like painting and incidentals. nothing like the amount our current very well loved house needs.

i am amazed at how much i can to in a day. and equally amazed at how overwhelmed (her words not mine) and unable to do anything my mom is. now look i know what its like. i am overwhelmed too. but ive been dealing with her "someday the revolution will come and we will need________" obviously fill in the blank. lemme tell you we wont need 100 phillips screw drivers. ever.

nor will we need 37 toaster, 2000 books on aircraft history, building, fliers etc. two clothes washers. ever. ever ever. ever.

so its all leaving. to find good homes.

at least the airplane body that was in the backyard found a new home several years ago.

this new house is going to one of those houses that only has the necessities, things the people who live there love and use.
