Monday moanin'

Well, Jake and Carla closed on their house today. We will move their "stuff" on Saturday, but, using their air mattress, they intend to stay in their new house as of today.

When I got home, I changed clothes and went out in back. I moved five wheelbarrow loads of wood chips (that's about all my back can take) and spread them out. Then I came back in and got scared out of my socks by Jake! He said he yelled at me so I'd know they were there, but I guess I didn't hear him.

So, they filled their car up and then took off for their new home. I washed a load of clothes and made myself dinner out of leftovers. I heated up two brats, but this time I put a slice of provolone on the bun and melted it in the toaster oven, then put in the brat and some mustard. Interesting taste treat.

I watched TV until bedtime, but slept lousy. Too quiet I guess. I knew there would be a period of adjustment when they left, but I felt like I had a big load of lonesome dumped on me.
