Moving on
My BACK is killing me, but that may be due to all the bending and lifting, schlepping and moving. Yikes, how did I ever accumulate so much stuff?
We're in the midst of packing, and while it's very exciting to think of our new place, getting there will be something of an ordeal. The buyer of our Condo wanted to move in about the time we were on vacation (grrrrr), but we made nice and said yes. (Her option were to a) rent a hotel room 'till we were ready or b) put all her stuff in our front yard and wait 'till we vacated the premises.) So now all I have to do is pack the entire house up while I'm packing for the lake. No problem.
It could be a lot worse - I just got back from Anaheim, CA., so I saw first-hand what worse looks like. The weather is nice, but that's about where the "good stuff" stops for me. It's wall-to-wall people. Nice people mind you, but still, a lot of them.
The biography of Alexander Hamilton I'm reading is fascinating. There will be an extended post once I get done with the book. Suffice to say that our country has been in the grip of political strife before, and what we're seeing today pretty tame. Having said that, it's not OK, just common.
