Also picked up Diet Cokes - four for fifteen bucks - that's as cheap as it gets.

Four?  Cases?  2-liter bottles?  6-packs?  Surely not cans.

At the local Fred Meyer here, it's four 12-packs of cans for $15. :)

So over the last several days, my sister and her boyfriend went to Salt Lake City, Utah to visit a friend of hers, and she brought me back some keychains!

I'd heard that we had about 90 people, so that wasn't too bad.

Since it was during their afternoon happy hour, we chose items from their half-priced appetizer menu.

We chatted and ate and not too long before we got our food, a couple was seated in the booth right behind Margo.

Final evening at the in-laws house. We move them to assisted living tomorrow. Then we’ll do a little prep and cleanup here. Have a company come and sort out all the junk. House will go on sale in a few days. Bittersweet. Wife’s only childhood home. It was nice having the option to come here and visit or stay if our power went out or whatever. But they just couldn’t stay here anymore.
 

Where will you and the family move to?

We’re staying here. The in-laws will now be a half hour away instead of a few min.

We said goodbye, and I said that I'd see him Thursday at our pick-up rehearsal and then Margo and I went our separate ways.

It is a shame what has happened, yet fortunate you moved close by in time to handle this.

Best of wishes and coping vibes to them in their Ft new space.

Thank you. Their new place is quite nice, I’m told. I’ll see it tomorrow.

I then went to my sister's, where she not only gave me the keychains, she also had some doughnuts from Voodoo Doughnuts.
