Almost done
Went on vacation in early September. Just before going on vacation we bought my parents a place closer to us so we can take care of them. Escrow closed a week after vacation. My wife and I have spent since the middle of September getting their new place ready, packing up roughly 150 boxes, moving them, trying to get them settled in, and getting their old place ready to sell. Mom had surgery during all this. Dad fell twice with the last time resulting in a trip to the ER. No help from my siblings of course, even when my sister was only an hour away during most of the packing and moving.
I'm tired and cranky but glad my parents are closer.
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams
