Welcome to memories...my memories....welcome to a Blast from my Crazy Past!
To Move or Not To Move...
I remember it like it was yesterday....hard to believe it's been over three years. My grandpa had just died suddenly and my grandma was left alone. My uncle, who at the time lived some distance away, asked if there was any way that we could fix up my great-grandma's house right next door and move in for a year or so to help grandma out.
Being a family a 7 at the time, we weren't sure we could swing it, but decided we would look into it.
One problem we immediately ran into was that there was so much junk in the house from years past that we would need to rent a dumpster....
With that problem solved, we dug in. Literally. While many of us worked indoors, Peter and the kids worked outdoors.
The inside needed so much help that there was no way it would ever be habitable....not without a ton of money that we just didn't have. Needless to say, we never moved next door to grandma. But the memories of all of us chipping in to get some work done on the property are bittersweet ones that we will never forget.
Till next time...
Have a blessed day and embrace the craziness in your life!
