What is all that?

Yes, this is the very large pile of stuff Thomas was calling about for somebody to please come and pick up. It came from one of 2 attics..which means there was another pile this big of trash.
So, this morning when I went over to organize all of the "treasures", I saw that the pile had not been picked up and the other pile from earlier in the week was picked up. So, I got in my car and drove around until I found the garbage men. I have to admit I was a little embarrassed, but they were beyond nice and only asked a few questions about what was going on. They assured me they would come back and pick the pile up Tuesday-thank you, thank you, thank you!
In case you didn't know we (the Cross boys) all decided it would be fun to move at the same time. First Daniel(John's brother) decided to build a house in Castlewoods. Then when Paw-Paw(John's dad) saw Daniel's nice house, he decided they would finally move after years of saying "we are going to move". So, then, what do we decide? To buy CC and Paw-Paw's old house, fix it up, and move in! So in the last month and a half, John has worked in booty off (when he is not at the hospital)to get all of CC and Paw- Paw's stuff (30 years of stuff, plus 2 attics) moved into their new house. Next, we gotta move Daniel, and then there is us!
Tomorrow morning, we are having one of the largest garage sales I think I have ever seen. I hope we don't have to pay the people to take the stuff. However, one of the biggest blessing is the Gateway Rescue Mission, they will come to your home and pick up your items to be given away. All complaining aside, we are very excited about our new
old house. This has and will be a major blessing for us as well as lots of space to
raise some kids in! And don't worry, there will be lots of before and after pics. Soooo-if
you know anyone that needs a great 3 bedroom, 2 bath house, please let us know. We
will be putting ours up for sale in a few weeks.
