Movers

They arrived at 8:30 (late from traffic) and left about 1:30. The container was not completely full, so they took all of our nice-to-haves, outside benches and tables, lots of shed junk, etc. We took photos, but don't have time to put them up, since we'll be turning this computer off soon.

It was a bit strange seeing everything in the truck and walking around the empty house. How odd to leave somewhere you've lived for so long (since 1994). 

Ed is busy loading the final bits into the van. Kaye is phoning trying to confirm that various services will be stopped as requested. Wait, wait, wait. There still seems to be a lot to do before we leave tomorrow, and we are both really tired, thinking a nap would be nice. 

When we let Lydia out of our bedroom, she walked around the empty house crying. Now she's curled up in a narrow spot between a box and a wall. Poor kitty, her world just won't stay still. 

If all goes well, we'll be back to blogging by the end of the week.
