The heat is on...

We broke down this week and fired up the furnace.  Jack came home from work and I was sitting wrapped up in a blanket so he decided the time had come.  This week we have been helping our daughter and son-in-law move the woman whose house they bought out. It was a foreclosure and she didn't seem to be able to get it together to move herself so their friends and family got together and did it over two evenings. That was definitely much kinder than calling the police in to begin evicting her through the legal system. It also was much faster. The house needs a lot of cleaning up and repairs. When they are completed Caroline and Paul will be renting it out. It will be a busy time while they do siding, windows, doors and yard clean up outside.  The inside needs the kitchen and bathroom done plus some drywall, electrical and lots of cleaning.
