Hello,

Up paying some bills. I have a mountain of paperwork to get through tonight. Sorry if I'm repeating myself, but I'm having a hard time lately remembering whom I told what to. In any case, they are moving Sunday to Crystal Pines in Crystal Lake, IL. I have this week through the weekend to get their move done. I have next week to pack and move their apartment. Mom and Dad are really looking forward to the move. Things have been hard for both of them in the Toluca place but particularly on my Mom lately. Good news on the new facility. They'll have their cell to start, but the reception will hopefully be better. Also, we'll be able to set them up with an real phone through AT&T. In addition, WiFi is included with the room, so we'll get Dad on-line a.s.a.p. They were in the process of "deep cleaning" their room today, and are getting ready for their arrival. On the other end, Asta Care will have them ready to go Sunday. The only missing piece at this point is transportation. We're trying to arrange transport for them. If not, I'll be going to get them. I have a minivan (having reached that point in my life) so it won't be a hard ride or fit. As for their apartment next week, I'll face that monstrosity when I get them safely in their new home.

Chris
