A whole day at home.   Shanna came to clean this morning.  I was on the phone most of the morning Putting out fires and preparing for the trip.

I spent the afternoon just culling the excess that is all around me in the house.   It is amazing how much can just be disposed of .   At some point, I will be able to take advantage of all the people who have offered to help me pack.

Just took Nicky out for his evening walk and am heading to bed.

Talked to my niece, Vikki, today.   That is always a pleasure.

Also talked to my sister, Nora.  She always makes me feel good.
