Update 07-21-11
The date range for my near-future move has been bumped up to early to at latest mid-September 2011; the location is to be approx. 1 mile (~2.20km) from my current location. The new place will have limited space; however I'll be able to store things I don't need right away instead of disposing of them like I had to do last time.

The date range for my near-future move is tentatively scheduled to be 08-01-11 to 08-03-11 (or "01 Aug 2011 to 03 Aug 2011" if you prefer). I say "tentatively" here because if a place is not found by then, we could be here until 09-01-11 ("01 Sep 2011").

This is to be an intracity move (or a move to a very nearby community at worst), but "moving" is "moving"...what a pain in the toliet muscle.

Here is yet more evidence that the move is now iminent:



Saw this stuck in the front yard yesterday morning; the leaseholder officially gave the landlord 30 day notice a couple of days ago. So moving soon is not just a probability, it's a certainty now.

The military burial that was originally planned is now off the table; the new plan is to have his body creamated and the ashes given to us. When my stepmother "goes", her body will also be creamated and both of their ashes plus those of the puppy dogs are to be deposited near Puget Sound (in western Washington state USA) by my stepsister.

My father left this mortal coil at 12:25am PDT today (07-01-11).

Toward the end, he had a temperature of 106°F (41.1°C) that was apparently caused directly by the cancer; and a body temperature that high is usually deadly -- that may very well be what actually terminated his life.

He will receive a military burial at no cost to us, but we still have to find the money for the coffin and other miscellaneous funerary expenses.
