I always get a kick out of the May the 4th deal.

Norma and I were married May 4th, 1991 in BC, Canada, long before May 4th became a Star Wars thing. LOL. So, for those who don't like math, today is our 31st anniversary. LOL!

So a nice day to celebrate, although tomorrow, our eldest son is moving halfway across the country from us. He and his wife are moving to be near her elder sister, and I can tell you -- it was tough saying goodbye last night when we saw them. They have a little boy who was born right after Christmas last year, so neither Norma nor I wanted to let the little guy go. Or the baby. 1F609.png

Then, Friday, we get to move back to our own house and leave the mansion behind. Sigh. It's been fun living in a 2M dollar AirBnB for the last couple of weeks, but it's time to kick off the glass slippers I guess. Once home, we've got to unpack our possessions. Everything was removed and cleaned of smoke damage. Several things were disposed of. I guess all of our pillows were thrown out, and the drapes in our living room that were near the fireplace.

While the house was empty, I took the opportunity on the repair crew's day off to sand the hardwood floors and I resurfaced them the next day off. So once the ozone machines are done tomorrow night, we'll have resurfaced floors to welcome us!

Then, I have to start working on the rest of the drywalling I have to do. Ugh!

May the 4th be with you!!!

Happy 31st

White flowers are a traditional gift. Here are virtual daffodils, petunias, tulips, and gardenias.

Perhaps I should have said, as far as I know it was long before I ever heard may the 4th be with you.

Sounds like you guys are doing it right, so hang in there. It just keeps getting better and better. I speak from over five decades of experience.

I my daughter moved away taking our grandchildren with them, my wife wouldn't rest until we had joined them. I know how you feel about the grandchildren. Both my grandchildren are over 21 now and they are still precious to me.

Hugs

Happiness is being all dressed up and HAVING some place to go.

It's tough all right. It's amazing looking back at the pics of our son that we took when he was that age. His son looks so much like him, it's no wonder we don't want to see them move away.
