When we were done helping my dad and my uncle yesterday I asked if all they would need us for is for the following weekend. (This upcoming weekend.) Apparently they will need us an additional day at least, but more likely two other days. That would mean five days worth of assistance. Why the extra days? Because they are renting a dumpster and want help throwing things out as well as setting things up on tables for the sale. I'm hoping that it's only one additional day. I told them that I think that if we were just to do one longer day then we would be able to get it all done in one day. Normally we've only been working at it for 4 1/2 hours each day. It's irritating because we're making about a hour drive to get down there and then making another almost hour drive to get home. It also doesn't help that they don't want to start until around noon. *sigh* I'll just be glad when it's over.
We are still trying to wrap our heads around how in the blue hell Grandpa is still alive. The doctors have been maintaining their prediction of his passing prior to his next birthday. His birthday is September 2nd.
Master and I had to have a very difficult and unpleasant conversation today. Don't worry. It's not about a divorce or anything. It's just about something that neither of us want to do but may end up having to go through with.
We are still hoping that it won't have to happen but at this point we have to start seriously coming to terms with the fact that it might and as a result we have to start making plans for it. We had said we would revisit the conversation in August and so we did today. We were more of less waiting on one more key piece of information before having said conversation. Well, we got that information today and it wasn't good. Immediately after that we started talking about the situation at hand. We made a few preliminary decisions.
