I did more cleaning and packing today. I carried the junk up out of the cellar and out of the garage. Some things I didn’t put out because rain was forecast and I didn’t want the cardboard boxes to get all wet and fall apart. I washed the refrigerator and the floors that I didn’t do yesterday. Dottie came and we loaded up her car with a floor lamp, bird bath, and large cactus plant, metal trash cans I use for bird seed and things so the mice can’t get in them, a rug and mat and hose reel cart. My large suit case with clothes and linens also went in Dottie van. Meanwhile, Chuck was fixing the bathroom sink.

The lady had another heating contractor come to give her an estimate and the fire dept. came to certify that every floor had a smoke alarm, a CO2 alarm near the bedrooms, and the fire extinguisher in the kitchen near the door and five feet from the floor.

Dottie and I went to lunch at Larry’s and she asked about Chuck and Erica’s horse farm. I said it was only a five minute drive and she said she’d like to see it. She was impressed with the farm. Erica took us on a tour. She now has a gift shop and sells Lenape Indian jewelry and items the Indians make. The Chief made her an official agent for the Lenape. She has an Indian costume that is worn by wives of the chiefs.

She has scout and 4H groups come as well as school field trips. She has a giant Tee Pee that is authentic. It is really cool. She also gives riding lessons and has a large arena for that.

I was filled from the late lunch so I had a yogurt and ice cream for my dinner. I washed out the freezer and washed most of the kitchen floor. I still have to do in front of the sink but will do that tomorrow after I move the rest of the boxes and things to my car. Settlement isn’t until 4pm which will put me on the road at rush hour. Bummer! The lady has to work so that why the late time.

A thunderstorm came through and poor Danny had no place to hide. I opened the closet and he ran under the shoe shelf but then ran out when I left. He looked at the air mattress trying to figure out why he couldn’t get under it. He finally jumped up on the air mattress and curled up between the two pillows.

I guess I’d better take him out now that the rain has stopped. Then I will get in the tub.
