Well, I realized the first flaw in this plan when I saw that there was quite a bit of packing still to do. Here we are in the happy moments before stepping into the house.
The second glitch in our plan...someone broke into his house. THEY broke a window, then "sorted" through his stuff, grabbed cash, and out they went. SO, not only did his money get stolen and window broken, the timing of the robbery was about a week before escrow was supposed to close on his house. Did you catch the "supposed to?" Yep, because idiot/idiots did this, the family that was to buy his house backed out of the contract. It just makes me want to scream.
Having never been the victim of a crime, the cop/detective/evidence guy experience was interesting. So CSI...with a Midwest twist.
The positive note that came out of this whole mess was that I got to re-meet my dad's neighbor. I can't use enough positive words to describe this man. He was supportive of my father throughout this, as well as helping out at other times.
