Estate Sale Complete!

The estate sale day was long and mostly fun. Thank you, so much, Kathy, Gaytrell, Millie, Britt and Bryan.  Each of you made this possible.  Otherwise, I think I would have been ____, well, you know.   Now it is a matter of finalizing the disbursement of what is still here.   I expect to have all of this complete in the next two weeks.  Meanwhile, I can begin focusing on truly making the motor home mine.  She has been rather neglected since I brought her home, though many friends have stopped by to see her.  A name has yet to settle in.

So, while my body is fairly tired from yesterday and the several previous days, my brain seems to be rather focused.  I have been making mental lists of things yet to be accomplished, and taking things one step at a time.  Hence, I feel grounded and organized. Though it was a challenge yesterday, with everything scattered about and at times it truly felt cluttered.  I am very grateful that part is finished so I can keep moving things out into the garage towards their final resting places.  Feels good.

The poor cat was totally freaked out by all the traffic and people passing through, stopping and parking.  He finally went (somewhere) and hid out for the rest of the day.  Finally, after all was said and done and everything put away, he came back and we spent some quality time talking about all that had occurred during the day.  This morning we had our usual wake up time together with breakfast and lots of purrs.  For such a small cat, he is one tough cookie. There are no other cats that he will allow near the house.  Pretty amazing little  critter.

I think that after I finish putzing around with things today, it will be time for a nap.  I have realized I am more tired than I thought.  The past few days have been much more active than I am used to.  Plus, standing most of the day only added to the tiredness I am feeling.  The good news is it is Sunday and nothing is on today's schedule.  Yay!  I could wash the car, however, I'm certain tomorrow will be a much better day to do that.

Soon, this will be the view from my back deck.  Autumn is approaching and all the leaves will turn colors and then fall to the ground.  This is one of my favorite seasons.  There is a crispness in the air and the getting ready to settle in for the winter.  The baked goods beckon from almost everywhere and I usually pack on a few extra pounds to keep me warm through the long winter months.  Of course, depending on where I am this year, it could be an entire new adventure within itself.  It is becoming clear to me that what used to be a usual or common event for me will probably be different for me from now on.  I am looking forward to it all.  

"Nature is full of genius, full of the divinity, so that not a 

snowflake escapes its fashioning hand."

Henry David Thoreau

Enjoy a good nap!
