The kids, G40, her D4 and I went to the beach on Saturday to look for agates to put in S8's new rock tumbler. I found a cool beach that had good deposits of jasper, sagenite, zeolite crystals, and "Oregon jade" (garnet). We had a good time hunting for rocks and got enough agates to fill the tumbler with - S8 was excited that he found a fossil. It will take about a month before we see the final results from the rock tumbler.
When X picked up S8 yesterday for Chinese class, she told me that she got around to going through one of the boxes of her stuff that I put in her garage. She said that when she opened the box that a small frog jumped up at her. I laughed and said that I did not put a frog in there.
The reorganization of the inside of my house is almost done (with the advice of GF40). The kids and I like it a lot. There may still be some of X's things in the garage and shed, but I think I have most of her stuff packed up. I have some excess furniture to sell or give away on craigslist if X does not want.
