On Saturday, Anne (Amy's friend) and Mike and his girls came over to help get stuff out of the attic. It made it go much faster!
| This is the left side of the porch with stuff for the Purple Heart. Please note the self portrait of Mom that she was willing to get rid of - we saved it. |
| The right side of the porch - loaded and gone. |
| Maddie and Caroline who helped. |
What a day!!!!!! The 1-800-Got-Junk guys came and finished emptying the attic and basement. Luckily, the weather held up - no snow and no rain.
| The basement - emptied. |
| The other side of the basement with what is going with us. In case you wondered, those are Mom's waterski's - maybe we will hang them in the porch. |
| The right side of the attic. |
| The left side of the attic - please note the hideous set of drawers that mom refused to get rid of. (They belonged to Ruth Galloway.) |
These guys worked so hard and were fabulous. In total, from the Thomas House - 6 trucks.
One good wind might knock this house over.
I still have to go to the shredder and to the dump - my car is loaded. The garage is an ongoing project, but I have the weekend.
I am off to the dentist because, of course I broke a tooth on Saturday. Luckily, no pain. I also have a bumper crop of poison ivy on my left hand. I did not know you could still get it in the winter. I saw some on a small tree that had come down in a bad spot, so I carefully shifted the tree into the woods. I thought I was careful, but apparently not.
So, we are on a roll and Amy has the plumber, the cable, the phone people all ready to go when she gets to Durham. She is fabulous!
Time to go.
Love, Leslie
