The Damsel & the Chariot

The up-close-and-personal of the last four months is over now.

Our damsel rented a chariot from the u-drive-it Chariot Store. We helped her pack it Wednesday morning (along with two dear strong men), and then watched her head off into the sunset...
ok, it was 1:30...
but we had started about 5:30 and worked hard and it felt like sunset. (In fact, except for showers, I think we didn't move until sunset...)

We had to shoe-horn in the last few pieces, and she decided to leave a small microwave and a chair that needed repair. But you would be VERY impressed if you could see what we were able to cram into that tiny conveyance!

The actual parting went really well; my partner and our damsel were able to give each other a hug and wish each other well.

We've only talked about it a little bit since she's been gone.
Our real work is still ahead. There are some really big lessons in store for us.

It's really nice to be back in our house like the old days. (I like to walk around in my birthday suit, you know?)

Li'l Bit spent several hours checking the rooms to see where the damsel had gone...I think she misses her a little. The damsel was allergic, you see, so they had to do those air-kisses and stuff and couldn't really play together, or enjoy mutual massages like the rest of us get to do. But since the cat speaks English (of a sort) they were able to become friends. In fact, I think the damsel was surprised by how much she came to care about the munchkin.

The damsel's off now on her new adventure. She was able to latch onto an apartment in Chicago even before she left (thanks to a daughter on the scene). Her resume is sterling and her contacts are good, so I expect all will be well on that front shortly. I hope so... the move will take a $ toll...
And her own VA business is slowly growing.
There may be some dragons for her...maybe not. I hope it all goes well.

Fare well, dear damsel.

Hello, darling.
Ready to go to work? Methinks there is a dragon or two lurking for us!
(The first one I see is mine, and is named Controlella) Happy hunting!
