A good day. W seems pretty calm, I think she is really happy to see S20. Not much news, other than he made it!
Tomorrow is another day. In theory some folks are showing up around noon to give us money and tale the tent trailer. I'm a rotten negotiator, so I think I accepted less that I might have gotten. W won't be happy about that, but if she wanted to sell it, she could have done it!
The trailer is gone. I think she's a little disappointed, but satisfied.
The surprise was let out of the bag, on purpose. They decided that I should have some input. It's a new grill! Not quite the same a new mattress, but at least for a while I imagine it will be more useful!
S20 is doing pretty well. The "little" guys have taken to punching him every time he uses "inappropriate" language. Let's just say that even though they are small, he may end up fairly bruised! It sounds like the most excitement he was involved with was when his patrol was attacked by a family of porcupines while making sure a cave/tunnel was empty. He was up top, near the ventilation outlet when he started hearing yelling, and then shooting! It was a narrow tunnel, so the only person that could see what was going on was the guy at the front, so I guess it was pretty tense! The word is that they can throw their quills, and they will stick in a flack jacket!
S20 and I spent a fair part of the afternoon looking at fridges, then had dinner with W and the kids. Then we all looked some more, then I looked some more. I hope to buy tomorrow, so that we will have it by Thursday, so we can cook for a "welcome home" party next weekend!
