We got Teresa off to Corban College yesterday. It was a beautiful day. We stopped by to get the TV from Laura's and were headed out of town and realized we forgot the DVD player so headed for home again. Teresa drove so she would know the way. We arrived at about 11:15. Everything took longer than we thought and we had the usual trip to Walmart for last minute items. We did get to get a feel for the layout of the city as we hit Wal-Mart and the Kaiser clinic and another comercial district. We left just before dinner amid a few tears during our final good bye prayer. Then Chris and I headed to visit Lucille at her new retirement home apartment. It was lovely and we had a good visit over a kind of late dinner. More glitches with getting the dinner orders correct but it was on par for the day and we didn't let it bother us too much.
Today on our first day of empty nesting we hit a few garage sales, Jan picked some blackberries, cleared the coffee table and dining room table of boxes etc and Chris hooked up the living room TV to the DVD player from the family room. I picked some garden produce and finished my book. Chris took a nap and is out getting a repair cord for the carpet cleaner that has sat in the garage for the last 5 years or so. I have plans to clean the carpet as we rearrange furniture in our living room (which we need to do so Chris and my chairs are closer together). I also plan to take a load to the Good will and do some computer work. We've also talked to Teresa about 3 times on the phone. Thank goodness for cell phones and email/blogs to keep us in close contact. Enjoy the pictures and check out Teresa's blog also http://teresaferg.blogspot.com/
