We went to Potsdam to spend the night, pack up more books, and be ready for Kip, the auctioneer, who said he and his guys would come Tues. around 9 or 9:30, to take away furniture and other items to sell at auction later. He's a good young man, but he didn't show up or call. No doubt a misunderstanding, yet disappointing.
We went yesterday to go through things & be sure we had the things we want to sell all in one spot where possible, to make it easier for Kip. We were able to agree on most things, although John's saves his shit and I save my momentos. The descriptions are up for translation.
We spent the night on the mattress that's going, bungled up in sleeping bags. Kip never showed up, but John moved several large bookcases out & into his truck, we cleaned out & loaded a lot more stuff to bring to the Hobbit Hole. I wish we could have sorted out things we never, ever use or even look at, but J & I really don't agree on those things. We both felt good about getting a lot more done.
