On the home front, the truck is nearly packed and there isn't enough space. Tough decisions are being made about what to pack, what to ship, and what can stay with my parents for the time being. This is after so very much has already been sold, donated, and trashed. On the brighter note, today's walk through with the realtor raised her price expectation for the house by $15,000 (with another $5,000 or more possible after it's fully cleaned). Should the house sell at that amount, it would be more than we bought it for (and that was before the housing market collapsed). Granted, there have been a lot of improvements put into the house since then.
There's only one day left before Janelle, Katrina, John, the boys and our cats make the long journey up to Alaska. There's still a great deal to do. All help and prayers are appreciated.
