Here I sit staring at my dining room table wondering how in God’s name have we come to accumulate such stacks of stuff that “we must bring.”
Pool floats, grocery reusable bags, card making supplies, yarn and crochet hook, charging cables for devices, coconut rum and baileys…Rtic steel cups and straws, power strip…… just to name a few of the “cannot live without” items. Gawd the table disarray causes much anxiety!![]()
For the most part all of our clothes are packed in the packing cubes and this time we really have cut back on the clothing. Yes, I know….less clothes, more money. I am only bringing 1 purse, or as we say in Massachusetts “pockabook.” Paul’s 6 National Geographics, 15 Time, and 6 Popular Science add to the luggage weight…..He refuses online digital reading! But he does not complain about my 96 alcohol markers or 112 watercolor pencils, so I will try to do better in my complaining about his magazines.
Tobey the cat will have our friends look in daily and to shovel his litter box and feed and water. Lily the dog will go to our friend Bill. He and Lily are old pals and get along well. Bill is the accountant to a lawn servicing company and still works remotely. One of Lily’s beds is on the corner of his desk and she supervises and makes sure that Bill’s accounting stays accurate. She has a small flat pillow on the back of a chair where she can also lounge and see out the window and report any suspicious activity to Bill.![]()
