Wow, Gud. THAT is productive. We packed boxes, packed more boxes, went and picked up our U-Haul Pod box, hired two very nice day laborers to help load it, and they filled it up. Then J drove it back to put it in storage, and brought another one and they filled it again. We offered our sad old couch to the laborers and they took it in addition to their pay. Then our realtor came over and we discussed what else we need to do to prep the house for pictures for its online listing. Oh, and did laundry and rearranged the backyard furniture.
Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Catching up on last season's The Americans inspired me to re-watch The Day After which I haven't seen since it aired in 1983, when I was Paige's age. You know what I didn't have access to in 1983 at age 15? Whiskey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Liese, I'm so sorry. I hope all of this upheaval turns out great for you (and remember that even when you're doing something you chose, change is hard!).

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Lots of love to you in this difficult time, Liese.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm sorry, Liese. I hope it's as painless as it can be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
{{{Liese}}} Love you, honey.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Liese, I'm sorry. Lots of good thoughts headed your way.

What they said, Liese. I'm sorry, but I hope it works out for the best.

Our wings are not tired.
Lots of love going out to you, Liese. I know very well what a difficult decision it is to make. Know I am here if you need anything.

I hope things go as smoothly as possible for you, Liese.
