We've been virtually 'giving away' the contents of the condo, selling the washer/dryer for $50, the fridge for $50, etc. just to be sure to get them out of the house before we move. We actually did give away the sofa and the dinning room table and chairs! Everything was bought new just a few years ago, and should sell for a few hundred, but we just want it out... now! But we sold everything with the proviso that people not pick them up until a few days before we leave, so we can live comfortably for the rest of the month. We'll stay in a hotel for the final two days. Things really ARE moving quickly... but there is always time for more tea! I'm on my third mug already and it's just 10am! And... the doorbell should ring any minute now with the agent and prospective buyers.... Stitchawl |

Sounds great Stitchawl! Must be exciting, and tiring at the same time!

Mid-afternoon tea break. An extra-smokey Lapsang Souchong from McNultey's of New York. Just right for a rainy day. Long walks in the rain may be nice for young lovers but they suck for exercising...

Sounds like things are going well, Stitchawl!
In my cup: a toothbrush. It's late (early), even by my standards. Time for bed. |

Waking up slowly on a Saturday morning with cranberry juice in my glass ... and howling hungry cats milling about my feet .... which may soon result in cranberry juice in their bowls ....

Zeke's Coffee Hippie Blend. Kind of boring but I'll try more of the brand. They are fair trade and that is important to me.

Storm moving in, it's kind of "soft" right now, but looks like it will be positively dumping down tomorrow when I have to drive down to Redmond. Not fair, there's been a high sitting over the west coast for 2 weeks, and it finally disappears when I have a long drive that would have been much nicer with the top down. Sigh.
Lapsang Souchong in my cup. That kind of day. |

Making a cup of coffee for the road, as I get ready for the drive to spend the day with my son.

Got caught in a mini-monsoon on our trip to the grocery store.
Home in steamy, humid air - sipping a Guinness. |

I did and came home with a car full of goodies and gifts!
I am so proud of the person he became and had a great time seeing all the changes to the house and yard. I am home, pleasantly tired, and settling in with my chocolate strawberries and a cup of coffee (now that it has cooled down quite a bit). |
