Frenetic Friday

The madness continues! 

But first, we took a well-deserved break last night and met a former colleague for drinks after work. It was great to see her again and catch up. While we were together we ran into a client from our former firm. She seemed very interested in what we were up to and said we both look 10 years younger! 

After drinks the younger-looking two of us stopped for dinner at our favorite neighborhood restaurant for one last simple and very tasty Italian meal. We'll definitely miss that place, but look forward to finding many other favorite neighborhood spots around the country. 

Our frenetic day started early. We got the house ready for the walk-through with the new buyer. I finished the binding on Bullwinkle's quilt and finally got our old PC laptop up and running again. Then, we headed out to rescue Bullwinkle from storage. 

Bullwinkle's fulltiming journey is already underway! We vacated our not-so-secure storage lot and headed toward home to our friends' house with the big driveway. Boris captained the moose on its first trip through the nearby Caldecott Tunnel. As I followed behind in the squirrel, it looked as if Boris had made this trip hundreds of times. It was a piece of cake! We ventured along roads that were familiar to us, but new to Bullwinkle. Pulling into our friends' long driveway took some time and several friendly discussions, but we got it done, leaving the moose parked there for the holiday weekend. 

With Bullwinkle settled, we ran the short distance home to meet our buyer and her agents for the walk-through. She's a seemingly lovely woman who seems to think our house is lovely. And, she's paying over our asking price, cash. It was a weird visit. But, it's all good.

While the walk-through was wrapping up, our POD storage unit arrived. With much noise and fanfare, our 7 x 7 x 8 foot box landed safely on our street. Now, it's sitting there just waiting for us to fill it! And, we will. 

Next up is a final trip to the vet for one of our lucky felines. Then, we're off to the suburbs to have dinner with friends. 

Tomorrow is sure to be some kind of Saturday.
