Puzzles

In the cupboard next to the guest room at my grand father's house was a little game. It was one of those puzzles made of little plastic tabs that slid past each other vertically or horizontally in a single plane and they had numbers on them. There was one tab missing and the object was to mix the numbers up and then by sliding the tabs, put them back in numerical order.

Zelda and I are now playing a variation of that same game. Now it's not with numbers, but with moving boxes, and they playing grid is now the rooms of our house. Unfortunately, the missing tab is the space in our house, and we seem to have too many tabs for the board.

We have offers of help from friends to come slide those boxes.
That and help us purge.

Life has been stressful, but it is still good.
***
In Nov. the bank sent us the Foreclosure letter, scheduled for Dec. 1.
We moved.
A week later the bank sent a "we have moved your foreclosure out one more month".
(Along with a "I have been trying to reach you" letter. No name or signature attached to the letter. Just " I have been trying to reach you".)
This week we received a letter from the bank telling us that the cancellation of our insurance on the other house is a breach of contract. (Like our not paying since April wasn't?)

The bank bailout should have been thru the government paying off all the mortgages in America. We'd then have all that extra money to buy things with, some security, and the banks would have not profited.

Anyway...

Granddad's puzzle was much easier...
