I took a moment out before I disconnected my computer to read the posts from you all! Mel, you are always so sweet. I can just imagine you telling Alan to kick the guy in the nuts!
I'm worried that the guy would be too drunk to feel it and he would just fall down and knock his head on something and Alan would get blamed for hurting him!
You are all such great friends. I appreciate all the support you give me. If you could only come here and help me carry all the boxes it would be even better.
Of course, the girls want me to store all their "junk" for them because they can't fit it into their apartments. And,

since you have a storage room mom, can I put it in there?
Yes, I've given their safety over to God and have taken my stress back into my own hands. Now if Mr Clean would come and take over the cleaning of this 4 bedroom house we've been renting for the last 2 years...
I'm sitting here in an empty house that has just me, my computer, a patio full of Goodwill donations, about 40 bags of trash, and a house full of dirt that has been left behind by my kids. I won't get my deposit back if I don't get cleaning and taking loads to Goodwill and the dump.
I'll sign back on in a week or so and see how you all are doing! Hopefully I'll get some of my deposit back if I can hold up through most of the cleaning. If not, I'll have to forfeit the money in lieu of my health.
Oh, one more good note! My grandson is due to be born in two weeks! They are in Arizona, so I won't be there for the birth, but I'll definitely share the event with you all!
Thanks Mel for the belly laugh! I needed it today!
