Well I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak. Jag and I made it down by 8:15 yesterday morning to the house. I dropped him off, rushed to wash the truck and then dropped it off for new tires. One vehicle down, one to go. Next up the cleaning began.
A bit after noon it became clear Lori and Ty wouldn’t be able to make it down as the highway was closed literally from Denver almost all the way to Vail. So Jag and I were bachelors and kept at it. Ty’s room is 100% empty. That doesn’t sound like much but slowly we’re making progress. I sold my garage refrigerator to my neighbor who came over and then cleaned a bit more out of the garage as well. This morning Jag and I are getting haircuts at 10:30 and other than that, we’ll be cleaning away. Our biggest problem is that our storage unit is almost full! Not sure what we’ll do when we run out of room.
Needless to say the World is a mess these days. It’s mind boggling why our govt and Pres won’t acknowledge that we’re at war. Hell, even the Pope says we’re at war with radical Islam but all the Dem’s, current and running for Pres (Hillary the fool), can’t bring themselves to say it. Things are scary though with everyone on edge. My neighbors son who must be in his early to mid 20’s and his wife, both just got their concealed weapons permit. Steve told me none of them leave the house anymore without a gun. Now you have to know these people as they’re pretty quiet and reserved and are frankly the last people, especially his wife Dee, that you’d think would say this. For those of you that live here in town, I’m talking about Steve and Dee next door. Steve’s dad was a Supreme Court judge and worked with my dad years ago.
Anyhow life goes on, remember, hope for the best and prepare for the worst. It’s just sad the kind of World our kids are growing up in and even worse, what it will be like in 20 years or so.
Guess I’ll run so I can get some more work done in the basement before we leave for our haircuts. Mojo slept on the mattress next to me all night and yes, woke me at 4:43. Luckily I convinced him to go back to sleep until 6:30. He’s outside now playing in the snow. Wish us luck, God Bless
