Tuesday - June 24

Nice day and no rain as that's been almost a daily occurrence!    We made more waves around here, but basement and garages look good.   Now sorting thru several bins and boxes that had been my parents stuff including hundreds of pictures ('m not kidding) from waaaaay back and sooo many are not identified, so....got a good start on that today!     I should have gone thru this a few years ago, but one of those tasks I just kept putting off.
 
I met the central IL Sublettians for lunch at Gill Street and had so much fun.   Jane's husband, Joe and 3 grandchildren joined us, we ate outdoors and just had a very enjoyable lunch/visit!

So,,,our big news today was that Dotty, our realtor came and we signed on several dotted lines and our house is going on the market next Tuesday, July 1st.    Along with the garage sale, we are downsizing and will wander between Catrina and Daisy eventually settling in FL (east coast).   We plan to spend spring and fall here in town, so probably be around as much as we usually are!   And enjoy our family here
 
Our heads are in a whirl with organizing and getting things ship shape inside and outside before we leave Saturday for about 10 days!

Oh Pat, that brings back memories of going through all my parents bins filled with pictures,diplomas and certifications - so so hard to throw away. Congrats and good luck on a great sale of your beautiful home.
