I spent yesterday yelling in my mind at the Liquidators when I realized they had thrown away everything in the fridge. They did say nothing would be left in the house. Then i yelled at myself for not having a light in my bedroom. Overjoyed there was still a chair in the bedroom.
The finality creeps ever closer. I think I'm eating my last meal in the house, a lovely bagel breakfast sandwich from Saratoga Bagels. The house is completely empty. A million picture hooks on the walls give silent reminder of what once was. I'm spending the morning pulling those to silence even that reminder. I'm also pulling out the family crest that was installed in 1992 when Lyndell and I rebuilt the kitchen.
Yesterday, we had three home inspections to see what was wrong with the house; a general inspection, termite, and roof. All in all the house structure is in good shape. No ugly expensive surprises.
The house goes on the market a week from Friday as a contractor's special. Probably be sold within two weeks of that. I might come back one more time, although it's not neccesary.

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