First if you are on the Southern end of the East Coast please evacuate. We want you all to be OK. You are in our prayers.

After the crawl the next step is to contact everyone who signed up for a mug. As we get answers we start to pack them up to ship.

I actually helped Dan this time. We double box everything to give them the best chance of making it to their destinations.

Dan said, "I want to walk them to the store". I said, "there are too many, too heavy, I don't want to even carry one a half mile".
He said he could do it all himself and put the 6 boxes into two bags.

When we got outside he decided that it would be better with a pole. So he stole a closet pole.

He said, "see this is going to work well". Bless his heart. I said, "I will walk with you".

So off he went with me trailing behind. You have a good view of our dead lawn. We take the drought very seriously. Not all of our neighbors have reduced their watering.

So he made it 1/3 of the way until the pain of the pole changed the look on his face. At that point I told him to stop and that I would walk back home and get the car. I was his hero, he is always mine.

I looked back to make sure he wasn't trying again.

A last look as I rounded the corner.

I made a U-turn to make loading easier.

I like the grin he gave me as he got into the car.

Off to the store we went. By the end of today everyone should have these boxes. Soon I'll be paid by everyone. I started work on the crawl mugs last January and this month is the payday. Money in the back is a great thing.

Thank you all for following our goofy stories. I do them for you! Cheers, Wendy and Dan aka my right hand man
