Packing Begins

Yesterday I went over to Dad and Yvonne's house to help out for a bit. I had made a big batch of spaghetti sauce and some banana bread that morning, and I brought a gallon of sauce and a loaf of bread. I also cut lilacs from our tree and brought those.

On the way to Lynden, I stopped at the U-Haul store on the Guide Meridian and bought some moving boxes and some tape. I had promised to save the moving boxes they'd lent us last summer, but I didn't. I remember thinking, "They aren't moving any time soon." Hardy har har.

When I arrived, Yvonne was just settling in for a nap, and Dad was at the grocery store. (Steffi was rumored to be upstairs, although I didn't see her while I was there.)

Yvonne said she was feeling okay, but very tired; this was her third nap of the day. The more napping, the better, I say! I tucked her into bed and started in cleaning the kitchen. Dad soon got home and we unpacked the groceries, then had a glass of iced tea in the sun and talked about options for their impending relocation. Then we packed a set of china, and pretty soon it was almost seven and time for me to scoot home.
