I am almost finished with the packing and throwing out phase of the move.
Originally my intent was to rent a uhaul truck. Four years ago it cost us
800 to move her from Texas. To move back would cost us 1800. It turns
out that there is much more demand for the trucks going north to south so

cinch. I called him and said that I had packed the legos, yugioh cards,
and transformers and did he want anyhting else. Being that he inherited
my short term memory he just said he wanted the legos, transformers and
yugioh cards. Simple enough. He had no idea what else was actually in
his room. I am a mean mom.

I gave the stinky escort to my nieghbor. I cleaned it up and it actually
looked pretty nice. I wanted to donate it to a car charity but so many of
them seem really shady. I started talking to him over the fence as he was
wanting to give me some watermelons. I asked him if he knew of anybody
that needed a car. He said he did and wanted to buy it from me. I told
him, no it wasn't worth much and he could just have it. Instead of
finding a charity to give my car to the poor I just located a poor person
myself. He is a good ol' guy. He drinks a bit of beer and lives with his
wife with a bunch of
