We had intended to perform a thorough inventory of our 5x10 storage shed. It was a two- person task. CJ spends a couple of hours at the shed, gets depressed, and does some critical shopping. He returns with only the Mathew Hayden cricket bat shadow box.
With Carol focused on physical therapy, CJ is shopping for her medical supplies, picking up prescriptions, running errands, and solving the puzzle of packing for the return trip.
Randy has been preparing breakfast most mornings. CJ decides to make huevos rancheros as his contribution.
In the end two boxes will be shipped to Australia. One of them is offloading weight and volume.
For the trip, we have two checked very heavy bags. The weight comes from nine bottles of wine and spirits. Additionally, we have five carry-on items: CJ's backpack, Carol's purse, CJ's CPAP, small roller suitcase, and Carol's walker. We normally carry three or four items. Remembering we have five will be challenging.
CJ is fortunate to have Randy as a beer sampling buddy, their amazing pool for a refreshing afternoon dip, and the two of them when the effort becomes too much, and he runs out of energy before Carol wishes to be put to bed.
