Mum’s house is cleared out. Got the last three boxes and some miscellaneous items in the car, but in the main, I’m finished. Now we just need to clean the house and put it on the market. We’ve already had three families inquiring into the house. I don’t think it will be on the market for long.
I managed to wrap my hand in plastic and take a shower so I finally feel comfortable. It was so hot and humid I couldn’t eat until I got home at 5 pm. I just don’t do well in the heat. I’m soooo glad I don’t live in Texas any more. They’ve been having a heat wave.
Now all I have to do is get my apartment settled. I bought a hanging kit so I can get my pictures on the wall. Soon everything will settle and that’s when I think mum’s death will really hit me.
