This weekend has been awesome. Bill had a lot of company and is in good spirits. Lori and her girls were in town and helped me a lot with cleaning out stuff. We worked in the attic and in the garage.

Phillip one of our nephews came over for the whole day on Sunday and helped me sort through Bill's office stuff one more time and the garage stuff one more time. Phillip is an electician and knew what a lot of tools and miscellaneous stuff was and whether it was trash or treasure. He was a very big help and he really helped get the piles down in the garage. He is also coming back Tuesday night with his two brothers and we are going to get the rest of the attic stuff down. I will go over that stuff and reduce it down also.

Then Dean one of our Nobles friends and a drummer himself came over to pack up both sets of Bill's drums and sort through some of the other miscellaneous stuff that only a fellow musician could do. He brought Bill's practice set to his Mother's house as Bill gave it to Ross, Babes son. Then Dean brought his professional set from his mom's house to here. When we move it will go to Houston as per Bill's request. Along with a collection of several snare drums and a couple of speakers.....etc....etc.....etc.

The garbage man with hate us but we did it to it big time. It looks like we are moving or something. Yes, I think we are really getting close to the moving day. It finally is beginning to look like the inventory is really being reduced. I thought for awhile there we might have to rent a storage unit. I have been going through closets and drawers and cabinets since Katrina getting ready for this move. You can only imagine how much stuff....two people can accumulate in 29 years in the same house.

I am sorry Vic....I didn't give Lori any stuff but she managed to find a few things.

I am home now waiting for Jason the nephew that has taken care of the swimming pool for the last four months and won't take any money. So we are splitting our patio furniture with him. He has a new house and we have a smaller patio in Houston.

This is the second day I have not gone up to see Bill since March 12, but I am exhausted. The last time I flew to Houston to find a house. Bill knows how close the sale date is and I think he understands.

Lori and the girls went to visit today on their way out. Also, his Mom and sister Shirley and brother Danny came to visit today.

I will sleep good tonight and make it up to Bill tomorrow.

Much thanks to all for much appreciated help !
