jdmkleinSarah is moving. She is leaving home to live in a small group home beginning Friday, September 1. She spent all last week going through her things and packing boxes and totes for the move. Last Tuesday she and Paula took some hanging clothes and some small totes to the new house. Kelly came down Friday night and was over here by 3:30 Saturday afternoon to begin the big move. The plan was to take Sarah's bed, mattress, sheets an blankets and comforter to the new house and get her bed made for Thursday night. Well, we went out and bought her a new bed frame, took it to the new house and got it set up. Then Kelly, Sarah, and I went out for some Asian Fusion for dinner.
Sunday Kelly and Pat were to be here by 1:00 to start moving up the other things. Kelly was here about 11:30 (shock, shock; I was still in my pjs. and Pat arrived about 12:15 so we would have some time to chat before the work started. Got most everything moved on Saturday, except for the dresser, CCTV and desk, and some hanging clothes. Eleen called and said she would bring over sweet corn and a summer salad for us for dinner. Kelly hung around, 9:30. Kelly, Sarah, and I were just about starvelated because we had had nothing to eat all day long.
Pat came over again today to finish up the move. He took the day off just for his sister. The only things left are her clothes for the week, her meds, and her magnets. She has Morgan with her tonight so, they are at the house now, putting Sarah's room in order.
I feel much better having met her housemates and their pets. There are three other girls, and two cats. Both cats are very friendly. One was in Sarah's room to 'help' put things away this afternoon. Sarah is the eldest by several years. One girl is in her early 30s the other two are in their 20s. I think it will work out nicely.
I am going up tomorrow during the day to put together a shelving unit Sarah was asked to buy. Sarah will be here until Thursday evening. She is to go out with Brittany that night and then I will meet them at the new house at 10pm to say goodbye to Sarah. She will come home again on Sunday and stay overnight for the holiday. I will take her back on Monday early evening. Then I will pick her up on Saturday for her birthday. If all goes according to plan, she won't be home again until Thanksgiving. She needs time to adjust and realize that this is her new home. She is not just visiting there, she will be visiting here. I think it will work out just fine.
