I coundln't help but thing of Jolene when I was packing my cloths, she told me years ago that I had WAY too many cloths, kinda have to agree with her today!
We have most things packed, not going to be able to move them all today, but we will get some of it moved and the rest will stay here until next weekend or until after the sale. It has been interesting to see what all has been stashed in all these years. Although, there aren't a lot of things that need to be tossed, some to go to the Fellowship Cup, but not nearly as much as we thought would have to be discarded. (Fellowship Cup gets cloths).
We will be heading home soon, got to load what we can, wait for the dishwasher to finish and make sure the cloths are packed that I'm taking and the Professor is taking. The rest will wait.
Went to MO today and got cigs. Nice break!

I've started packing groceries and dishes to go to DM. The trunk is nearly full so I quit since I still have to put the frozen and cold stuff in on Monday morning. My goodness but we have a lot of stuff LOL
Now we will have to go through the house, probably tomorrow, and mark the things that we are not selling so that Jeff will know not to take those into consideration. I thought I would be sad but in fact I'm kind of excited. We are moving on. We are doing what we want to do and although we love our house, it is a ball and chain right now to drive back and forth, pay the utilities here (whereas we can turn them way down being gone all the time) and the hassle of packing each weekend and still not having everything we'd like to have in DM.
If there is a position at a college that Greg wants, when he is done with WP, it will be a whole lot easier to move and then buy the stuff we want rather than pay for lots of storage, pay the moving costs for lots of stuff that can easily be replaced and beat it up by packing and hauling. Life if good! I'm excited!
I certainly hope that GW is too, he seems to be, so it is decided. I think that's part of any decision that is the most difficult, the actual decision to do something or to pass.
I went to the hotel yesterday, which I have already told Bobbi and Cyn, and talked to Dilip about the domain for the hotel. He said they already had it (amazing since we own both of them but whatever). I looked at the forecast for business when Dilip was in the other room. Oh my gosh! This month should be sailing along with great occupancy and the start of building for the summer months. It's sad to say that they are running a 1%, 4%, 22% and one night of 57% for the next three weeks!! Of course, with no internet presence, no online reservations capabilities, a dark and dreary lobby (the lights were all off) and not taking Corporate Lodging or any truckers it's like they want to fail. In a way it is sad, in another way it makes me feel really good since when we owned it we NEVER faced those numbers! Guess we knew how to run a hotel that people wanted to stay at…at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
