Talked to Bette last night and the insurance guy for the house called her and told her that their stay at the University of Utah Guest House was up on Friday (that's tomorrow!) He told her that Mike's house would be ready and they weren't going to pay for housing any longer. I hope that means that there are appliances and his bed is set up. When I was in Pocatello, I walked through Mike's house and noticed new carpet, a beautiful kitchen with new lighting and beautiful cabinets and more counter space. The walls were nice and there were lever handles on all the doors (except the front door, which they are changing to levers). Handles on all of the cabinets need to be put on. It sounded like the things in Mike's bedroom had only smoke damage and they were able to clean most of it. His computer will have to be replaced. He will have to go through the other things and take stock of what he has/has not. I told him that this was his chance to get all new "Rachael Ray" kitchen items!

So they are packing up and will leave tomorrow morning after Mike's wound care. Bette got a primary doctor for Mike and the next appointment in SLC is on Monday the 23rd.

More later,
and so we go
