  Another Eureka Springs Victorian house

  
  

  Well, I talked to my sister this evening and the first move is basically behind them.  They cleaned up the old house after all the furniture was moved.  You know how clean you always think you keep your house and then how dirty it looks when all the furniture is gone and you find all that dirt that was hiding from you?  No different here.  Alice said they had no idea the carpet was showing foot traffic patterns as badly as it was, but they had it cleaned and took care of that.  Then they did the walk through on the old house and that went well and tomorrow it’s officially not theirs any more. 

  
  

  Now they’re trying to get settled into the apartments so they can feel some semblance of normalcy again. Alice sounded pretty tired, but she’s trying to think of this next 5 months as “an adventure”.  I imagine that before the week end is over she’ll be back on line, that is barring any cable problems at the new place.  And then she can fill you in on her adventure.
