another hurdle crossed

All of my grandchildren have, at one time or another, expressed some concern about my plan to sell my house and I will admit there are a lot of happy memories attached to this place.  Today I had a chance to spend several hours with my daughter's two kids and we used some of the time to sort through stuff that needs to be kept or can be sold. They thoroughly enjoyed searching for treasures, began to realize the necessity to get rid of lots and lots of things, and perked right up when I said the place where I'm thinking about renting has a pool.  So, two more converts to my cause.
