Sunday evening/DD/weight room/etc.

Sigh. . . .yes, the DD and the whole gang left about 3:00 PM with the U-Haul behind the van. They were supposed to leave Fri. then Sat. They were going to meet us for a quick breakfast before church. Etc. Etc. I think they just had no idea how much work is involved in getting a house ready to put on the market. The house is now empty, for sale.
They hope to make it to the Atlanta area to spend the first night. My techie SIL said he had all the directions in his cell phone. I insisted that he print out a mapquest also. At least that will have the highway numbers on it. They think it will take 5 days to make the trip.
Since they are techie, they will post on facebook each night from motel rooms with WIFI as to their progress. The 13 yr. old GS is supposed to keep in touch with his geography class to keep them updated on his travels.
As far as DH, he had blood work drawn Friday, and we are waiting to hear as to when the CAT scan is scheduled.
Life continues, we have the antique bed taken apart and in DH's warehouse at his office. Still haven't decided on the floor, but are leaning towards stranded bamboo, tough, and durable and attractive.
I will start taking off the wallpaper border (at the top by the ceiling) this week. Hopefully it will come off easily.
Weather is the other topic. It has been windy, and cool. Fall is actually here. I got out my sweaters and wool blends this morning.
DORIS--Fly lady would not approve of being a pack rat. If the clothes are not fit for Goodwill, save one or 2 things for the yard, and pitch the rest in the garbage. Does it fit? Do I like it? Is it somewhat in style?
Don't wait for your kids to have to clean out your "junk" after you die.
I had to do that twice with the aunts, have sworn to DH I wouldn't ever do that to my DD.
Flylady says spend 15 min. at a time in the closet, or where you want to purge. It really is a good plan. Works for me!
OK, this is a book, of a not-so-interesting life.
Hope our DUGS in the Queensland Australia area are out of harm's way with the fires. Someone please let us know.
