The move was completed

In nearly record time.

We started at 9:30ish (yes, ish is a time) and were done by 12:15 or so. My uncle had a trailer attached to his truck, I had my exploder and my Nebraska uncle had their van. Fortunately, we had gotten rid of a lot of her belongings during the sale in September, so Grandma didn't have a ton of stuff, or a ton of big stuff for that matter. The aunts and my mom packed and we loaded. It took us two trips to be called good, with most minor stuff lingering around. As we were eating lunch, my Nebraska Uncle said "I think we should be concentrating on the 9th hole." I agreed, and then Grandma said "Go golf, we'll handle it!"

So my dad, my NE uncle, myself and my dad's only friend and my dad's only friend's soon-to-be-son-in-law traipsed up the road to play Turkey Creek. I was a little concerned as I hadn't played golf since..oh...November. The course was in good shape, save for the greens. They were freaking horrible. They had arreated and hadn't been mowed yet. It was like playing on kitchen carpet with little pebbles thrown in. I shot 83, where I'm counting that I left 4 or 5 strokes out there because of the green. It lightninged on hole 17 and started raining on 18. We were the last car in the parking lot because we're idiots. And it got chilly. Bone numbing chilly.

Played golf yesterday too, and that went about as well as expected, because it was COLD and I was SORE.

All in all, it was a good weekend.
