Quiet House

My daughter was the last to leave, so the house is very quiet. I still have more boxing up to do but it will take time as I am planning on moving back in with Al. We have someone who wants to rent the house so I have to get my things out very soon. Not sure what I will do with some things because there is just no place to store them, so a lot will probably end up in a garage sale or Goodwill.
My daughter is fine and she left with tears just as I did also. But they will be coming back in November for our 40th anniversary and are planning a party for us. Should be lots of fun. Here is a cute picture of them together. Hope your New Year goes well and you keep your resolutions. Mine are many, but to de-clutter my house and get back to basic is one that I pray I can keep. I also want to be a more kinder and gentle person.

Hi Joyce, thanks for the compliment and for stopping by. Chris will be find.She is now back in Vancouver, Wa. and will not take David back. She hopes he moves out soon and expects him to be out in four days, so I hope it's sooner for her sake. We told her if he tries to harm her, we will be on the next plane. I don't trust him anymore around my daughter. Hope you have a great week. Hugs, Pat

Thank you Mary for your prayers. 'She is going to need them because she changed all the locks on her house and he has to go through a mediator to get his things out. She wants no contact with him at all. She is a strong willed woman, so I think she will be fine, but I worry about her. Love and hugs, Pat
