Benefit for the Ashley Morris memorial fund coming up on the 26th of July. This is a more than worthy cause hope to see you there.

It was a lot harder to refrain from blogging this week than I thought it would be. There was so much going on in the news I was really tempted to put my two cents worth in a couple of times. The time off was good for me I got started on a number of projects that I just kept putting off thinking that some magic trick was going to make them all disapear.

There will be a For Sale sign in front of the house very soon. We have signed a contract with a realtor and change has been set in motion. The house has tons of furniture in it, last weekend we moved a truckload of it to Mobile where it is currently in storage. That load has barely scratched the surface of what needs to be moved. I cleaned my closet out for the first time in years, the Am-vets picked up six or seven garbage bags of clothes. I hope they can put them to good use. I have started packing some other stuff that I don’t use on a daily basis, and may have a lead on a rental to move to.

It is truly amazing the things a person saves over the years I have been filling my mini dumpster garbage can to the brim every pick up day. While there is a lot of family history and emotion tied up in this house, the change is a positive thing for all involved.

I must say I am a little burned out on blogging, so I am going to take next week off. We will see if I can keep my mouth shut that long. see you in a week.

I can’t get too excited about the news today so I will share a post from one my fellow NOLA Bloggers.

I was delighted when I picked up the Living section of the paper this morning and saw Chris Rose’s tribute to Ashley Morris The Blogger Next Door

“Ashley Morris was a kindred spirit of anyone who cares about New Orleans”

Ashley’s influence continues amongst those who loved him. By the time I finished reading Rose’s tribute I noticed a tear creeping out of the corner of my eye.
