Monday October 27th~

 Your Monday morning thoughts determine 
your entire week. Think positive...

Back home again. Bone tired, but home. 
We still have lots to do, but Arvid calls this
 the fun part.  Putting everything together.


I would like to say we have an easy week, truth is it 
will be busy again.  For the last few days Arvid and I have 
been in North Carolina helping my parents move back to 
Florida.  Florida was once their home some 20 years ago.


We rented a 26 foot U-Haul.  Arvid designated
 himself as the driver.  The bulk of the packing and loading 
was done by Arvi, David, Nina and myself.  Mala and Gopaul 
were there many times before us and did their share.  Mala
 was also there on Friday the 24th to help some more.


  A big thanks also to Georgie, he came all the way
 from Virginia with his own U-Haul.  Mom and dad
 of course had also started their packing and giving
 away months ago, yet there was so much stuff.


The past few days though hectic, have been bittersweet. 
 So many memories in Granite Falls. My mom and dad's 
neighbors just kept coming one after the others to say
 their goodbyes, and wish them the best of luck.  


They all told them how much they are going to be
 missed, and that they would love to have them back
 anytime.  It was very sad, but at the same time I saw
 what an impact my parents made to the people in 
their lives.  They have already made friends here 
in Florida from their stay this past winter.


Mom and dad left a legacy in North Carolina, 
and a good one it is.  Moving is never easy, but they 
did great.  I know they will miss their Haven in North 
Carolina, but I also know they love Florida.  Tomorrow
 I continue with their journey into Florida.  Now HOME.


Sniff of course is super happy we are home 
again.  I missed him too much.  Good morning and
 a great new week to all.  Ours is definitely better with 
the move over, and mom and dad here in Florida.


Build your own dreams, or someone 
else will hire you to build theirs...
