I have the absolute best family. Sister #1 (in numeric order, not preference) called this week and REALLY wanted to help me go through the stuff in my office and get it organized. She thought that Brother #2 might also come and could help Michael with some outside stuff. Sister #3 also wanted to come and hoped we'd have something for her to do. Then I found out Sister #2 didn't want to miss out on anything.
They got here just as I was getting my shot in Boulder. Michael and Brother #2 finished picking up piles of pulled weeds and cut trees and loaded them into the truck so Michael and I can take them to the dump tomorrow. They then scooped poop out of the dog area as I hadn't really been up to it. I was so grateful. By the time I got home it was too hot to work outside.
When I got here the sistahs had almost everything out of the office. All I had to do was sit on the couch as they went through boxes and say: 'save', 'toss', or 'donate/sell'. We got rid of A LOT of stuff. Now what I have left is manageable and I can work on it a little at a time.
They will never know how much this means to me (I'm tearing up as I'm writing). We couldn't even convince them to stay for dinner. This is no reflection on Michael's cooking (tho, maybe mine). They just wanted to do something helpful and then go do their own things.
Family - I love you with all my heart.

You are truly blessed to have such a wonderful family. It's obvious how much they love you, how much you all love each other.
