Got behind the ticking clock 8-ball Tuesday evening (actually Wed. Morning) decided to quit making stringed-out errors and go to bed.
So – up early today to check on things and get the day off to a good start. (J) Made some progress and with Caleb’s health moved a couple of ham-tower pieces from Steve Shaffer’s farm where they have been sleeping for a couple of years – out to Jimmy Cox’s place where I hope we can sell that tower and one that Jimmy wants to sell also. Anyone looking for one or two triangular towers in the 65’ range of height?
We’re trying to finish up a move we started at the tail end of 2008 and along came the market turbulence and slowed everything down – so I think this has been our slowest ‘move’ of our career. We’re planning on a big yard sale in the coming month – and tying up a lot of loose ends, while finding stuff that’s been residing at the bottom of boxes… so we’ve discovered we don’t need all this stuff after all!
Maybe this will become a ‘liberation’ for us. Anyone else share that kind of feeling? Well, we’re looking for (hoping for?) a BIG change (or changes) in the scope of things to come – nationally as well as personally. Since both Barb and I are in the eighth decade of life now (and happy as clams) we’re looking forward to change for the better. I saw some new pictures that our ‘most mature’ daughter Kristi added to her FB pages… and was reminded that we have grandchildren who are spreading the “BUTTRAM CLAN” all over the place. Maybe we’ll start a family page and try to get all that info in one area where we can more readily keep up with family concerns without boring everyone else to death.
Well…I’m getting behind on today’s sked… so we’ll write more tomorrow. Hope you have a good week.
Love to all.. from –
Jack & Barbara
