things under beds and in closets....just lurking

OK, I admit, I am a somewhat negative person.  I think that is why I got into journalism many years ago, journalists are somewhat negative and sceptical.
Been moving stuff.  Help from David R. was a help.  Then the realtor called.  The rental unit we are renting has someone looking at it, possibly to buy or else they wouldn't be looking.
I immediately go into homeless mode.  Jackie says don't worry.  I worry.  Most of the night.  Into the day. Call the realtor.  She says don't worry.  Whew.
I honestly had an idea if the rental sold, I would cover myself in gray paint and call myself St. Joseph.  People could bury me in their back yards and their houses would sell.  I would just tell the moving guys to leave the truck in the driveway because we'll be loading up in a couple of days anyway.
Meanwhile the struggle to empty the memories and subconscious, Uh...I mean house.....continues.  Instead of playing solitaire, or reading Facebook, I should be packing up the stuff in the basement.
But my legs are tired, my head is sore, my arms are dead......so I am resting.
Until tonight, when I go to bed and worry about the basement not being packed.
