Today, the locksmith returns to open two more locked boxes. I'm sure there is treasure inside these cases (Narrator: There was no treasure)(Anticipatory post) I'm hiring a real estate agent. I'm sending letters to the money people to see how we get the money. I'm going to spend some time in the garage throwing more stuff out.
We interviewed another estate liquidator yesterday. After her fee, she figured we would get about $3K for the contents of the house. That was disheartening and it wasn't what Antarctic Sister wanted to hear.
Need to figure out how to sell the really valuable Steinbeck books. There are only a couple. Also need to figure out to sell the Squash Blossom jewelry. That's the only jewelry left worth any money.
The hunt continues for the missing silverware. I think someone walked out with it.
My nephew got prices on our two cars. One is worth nothing. The other is worth about $7K. But I'm balking at selling it because it was my father's car and he loved that car. It was his first Cadillac for which he paid cash. Doing that was a symbol to him that he had made it. It feels weird to sell the car.
A lot feels weird now.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
