Missing in Action

My sister is out from Ontario, and we are spending five busy days trying to sort out stuff at my mum's place.  We are bringing her over there tomorrow, to have a last look at anything she might still want to keep, and then we have a garage sale scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.  I won't be around home much.  Larry's holding down the fort.  Doesn't it figure though, the perfect gardening weather is upon us, and I won't be here to take advantage of it. (For those who don't know, my mother had a stroke last May that resulted in her spending a lot of time in hospital, and she has now moved to a care home)  It is time to get her place cleaned out, and sold.
