It’s surreal having Jag go off to college. It hasn’t really hit me but Lori took it like a mother would, not good, ha. We made it down by 7:45 after waking at 4am and loading both cars. Upon arrival he had to have another covid test and then we checked in and then headed to his dorm. He checked in there and then I took the first load up to his room with him. Lori or I didn’t need a test but only one of us could go up at a time. The rooms are small! I came down and then Lori went up with another load and I headed to Target to buy some more supplies for him. By the time I made it back, they were pretty much done and with a two hour limit to move in it was time for us to go. We hit Whole Foods before leaving Boulder and then headed home. We’re super excited for him and proud as well. With Ty in Nebraska we were all alone.
We made it home in 2 hours which was surprisingly quick and then rushed to the storage unit to grab some boxes before we waited for Craig our landscaper to come over. I unpacked the boxes outside due to the dust and carried in the books I decided to keep and made a pile of four boxes to donate to the local school. Today we’ll get some more stuff from our other storage unit and go through them too.
We’re off to the gym before getting back to work. In a crazy way Lori and I decided we’ll be ok when the kids are gone, as long as they’re close and come visit. It’s part of life, right?
We still need some furniture but will take it slow as things are so expensive. You’d think with the mess going on stores would have huge sales, nope.
Here’s a couple pictures from yesterday. Jag texted a few times last night as he was out with new friends already. Good for him. I did tell Lori she doesn’t look old enough to have a kid in college, right! God Bless you all, be well and be safe.
