Just a quick entry today because we are heading out to ... you-know-where ... again today. This is the big day. We are going to consolidate the two storage units into one, except for the stuff that people are coming to buy tomorrow. We'll also make the big final trash run, using a utility trailer. So the job will probably take all day.

Craigslist has proven helpful for selling the furniture. I posted a bunch of stuff yesterday and managed to find buyers for three large pieces. But I'm also getting a bunch of scams, including this one:

Wow, what a bad scam. Can you see all the obvious tip-offs that this guy is a phony? And yet people fall for these all the time. I also got a phony notice that I have won a "Euro-Afriq lotto" for $800,000 this week. It's rampant. Just be cautious if you are selling stuff on the Internet, and try to do business locally.
