Thanks so much Royall...a lot of what he has are older technical stuff for cars that are not new. He's just gonna ship them 'cause it would take so much time to go through all of the paper and spend an entire week messing with books that will take up his time he needs to spend here finishing up the moving process on this end.
He just purchased a new laptop that is geared toward his Toyota stuff...it will come in real handy at the shop since he is so used to having the latest technology here in Scottsdale, Arizona. The Big Island shop doesn't have access to as much as he does now, but with this new laptop it will fill in the blanks for him and make him feel comfortable about what he can access in his job. Anyway, it's a tool - so he can write it off next year too.
As far as the pictures go - they are already packed and in a stack of boxes...no way am I goin' back through it now. It's been a real chore to toss out what we don't want or need and keep what we do. Still - we will have much less to ship than many people since the majority of our furniture is gone. Just really clothes, pictures, kitchen stuff, etc.
And then there's Chuy. I am going through his stuff today to get it ready to send to the Quarantine people (with a big fat check enclosed) so that he will have no problems coming over with us. He will be flying on my mom's lap - she got a doctor's prescription note stating that it's necessary for her to travel with him...that he is a comfort pet. He even has a little blue vest to wear with a patch that says "Do Not Touch - Service Animal." Very cute.
Well guys, we got word that the mortgage paperwork is going just fine, inspection done, appraisal done, house gets tented on the 8th, looks like we're gonna be good to go come the 1st or 2nd week in September. It's a scary/exciting feeling all at the same time!
