I haven’t been posting because Mom has put her energy into moving all of Dad’s belongings (and a lot of other things) to the carport. She then set up tables in an attempt to organize the things. She explained that people would be coming to look at Dad’s old red and white car and the rolling tool chest filled with tools. She hoped that they would also buy lots of the other things she put out there. She said it was time to get serious about reducing the stuff we have in our house. I hope she doesn’t decide to remove the things that she parks on the end tables and mantel in the living room, because I really like to watch them hit the floor as I push them off. It is a game I like to play with her. If she had let me go out during the sale, I could have pointed out some of the good stuff by doing the same thing for shoppers. She didn’t think that was a good idea. Silly woman.

I plan to continue writing about Dad’s life this coming week. I’m almost up to the good stuff of when he met Mom and the best part of when they added me to the family. Stay tuned.
