The old place is starting to look quite empty. Yesterday we had our garage sale and managed to sell all the big priced or bulky items which was a real answer to prayer. All that we have left in the house now are a couple of boxes of bits and pieces that didn't sell. I'm hoping to make a couple of phone calls this week to see if there is anyone who wants any of the stuff otherwise we'll just pop it all out the front gate and some little man will find it all and take it home (probably the same one who goes through all our rubbish bags every night!)

Now it is onto scrubbing walls, bathrooms and floors to make it all nice for the owners to take it over again at the end of the week. We have moved into a little apartment beside our house (on the same property) and are living in slightly cramped spaces but it is good to have somewhere to lay our heads after a busy day of cleaning. The farewells are continuing which we are getting very tired of. It's hard to say goodbye to everyone but we know it is important to finish well with everyone. It's just so tiring!

So this week's plan is:

Clean the house and have it finished by Tuesday afternoon,
3 big farewells and several smaller ones
rest for a couple of days before we fly out on Saturday
Watch the season finales of the Amazing Race, Survivor (just love that programme), CSI and ER. That should give us some light entertainment in the evenings.

Tomorrow my blog buddy Carol is going for her 11th chemo treatment for cancer. Do pray for her and her husband Chuck as they face another tiring week.
