I am a senior citizen. I have eight grandchildren. My mother was a librarian. I am a very quiet person. I like to watch movies on netflix.
Speaker 2
I am moving to another state next month. My favorite football team is the chicago bears. I went to a very strict high school. My father used to be the headmaster in my school. My siblings are all older than me.
Speaker 1
I am a grandmother and I watch Netflix. I like documentaries. I used to be a librarian, like my mother. My grandchildren are taught by their mother and aunt. I have seven children. I am working on moving across the country.
Speaker 2
I love Netflix. The Chicago Bears is my favorite football team. I went to a strict high school. My dad was the headmaster. I have older siblings. I am currently out of work because I am moving to another state next month.I am moving a few states over.
Speaker 1
Hello! Netflix watching grammy here! How are you?
Speaker 2
I love netflix. Im good. Watching my favorite team the chicago bears football.
Speaker 1
I prefer documentaries, as I used to be a librarian, just like my mother.
Speaker 2
Nice! I went to a strict h.s. Where dad was the headmaster.
Speaker 1
That doesn't sound fun. My grandchildren have their mother and aunt as a teacher.
Speaker 2
It was hard. I also have all older silblings. I was not babied though.
Speaker 1
I'm an only child, that's why I had seven of my own.
Speaker 2
Oh wow whats it like having a huge family.
Speaker 1
Very fun. What do you do for a living?
Speaker 2
Nothing right now for im moving to another state next month to restart.
Speaker 1
Very nice, I am working on doing that myself.
Speaker 2

Speaker 1

Speaker 1
I have researched different moving companies. There is a lot to moving!
Speaker 2
Yeah! Seriously! At this point I'm thinking of just renting a truck myself and having some friends help me move.
Speaker 1
It's so expensive too.  I worry about my things getting broken or lost with movers.  I'd love to be able to do it ourselves, but that's just sooo much!
Speaker 2
Oh I'm sure! I wonder if your children would be willing to help if they have some spare time, but maybe you'll need to rent out a semi-truck to move your stuff Haha.
Speaker 1
Yes, too many mementos over the years for me to actually do the moving myself.  And because it's so far, I can't spend that much time in the car.  I'll just have to pay it.  I'm sure my children could pitch in for the cost.  So what do you think the Bears chances are for this coming year?
Speaker 2
I'd say pretty harsh considering their placement currently. I hear their projected to win 8.7 games moving into post season but we'll see. What do you think we're going to see moving forward?
Speaker 1
I'm more of a baseball fan than football, so I really don't know about how the Bears are going to do.  I like the Packers, and that's a rival of yours, right?  I'm interested to see what happens with Aaron Rodgers. 
Speaker 2
Yeah we'll see if they can find some way to keep him but I think theres probably a pretty low chance of him leaving. What's your favorite baseball team?
Speaker 1
I like the Chicago White Sox.  They really have a good team, if they can just stay consistent!  It was a tough series loss this weekend against the Yankees.
Speaker 2
That sucks! I was raised a Mariners fan myself but I hear they haven't been doing so well recently.
Speaker 1
Raised a Mariners fan but a Chicago Bears fan.  I know they are different sports, but they are totally different states.  That's very interesting, how did that happen?
Speaker 2
The boarding school I grew up in was in Washington state but I live in Chicago currently with my older brother!

Speaker 1
I found this great new series on Netflix that I think you might like.
Speaker 2
Great, I need a new series to watch what's it called?
Speaker 1
It's a sports series called The Playbook; not quite a documentary, but I think it's a good cross between what we both enjoy.
Speaker 2
Great I haven't seen that yet, I will add it to my list.  How is the move coming along?
Speaker 1
Slowly but surely! I am trying to go through all my things to determine what I really have an attachment to and what I can get rid of. It's emotionally draining and satisfying at the same time.
Speaker 2
I can imagine! I'm sure you have accumulated a lot of mementos from your children and grandchildren.  What I've learned is that the memories are still there even if you don't have the physical item to trigger it.
Speaker 1
I keep trying to remind myself of that. How is your move going?
Speaker 2
I'm on track to be there by the end of this month.  I'm really looking forward to having my own place and a new job
Speaker 1
It must be exciting to be at the this turning point in your life! What is the new job?
Speaker 2
I'll be working for an ecommerce company in their warehouse.  Benefits are great and pay isn't bad for starting out
Speaker 1
That's great! It's so nice to see a young person acknowledging the importance of good benefits. Do you know anyone else at the company? Or will you be on your own?
Speaker 2
I will be on my own, but I think a fresh start is what I need.  How about your move? will you be closer to your children?

Speaker 1
I have a lot of extra boxes leftover from packing. Do you want to use them for your up coming move? 
Speaker 2
Heck yeah. I need all the boxes I can get my hands own. It's not like the old days where big box stores had surplus boxes you could get for free.
Speaker 1
Yeah, it can be a pain! Are you hiring movers?
Speaker 2
No. Luckily, my siblings are going to help me.
Speaker 1
That's good. Have you visited your new place yet or only seen pictures?
Speaker 2
I did a mini tour of the area to get my bearings.
Speaker 1
What kind of area is it in? Big city or more suburban?
Speaker 2
It's less than 60K. It's not Chicago but it'll do.
Speaker 1
What are you going to miss most about Chicago?
Speaker 2
I'll miss seeing Bears games and hanging out with my brother. I just couldn't pass up this opportunity.
Speaker 1
Hopefully you'll be able to visit enough. What are you looking forward to about the new place?
Speaker 2
I like nature and the area has plenty of woods I can hike and ride my dirt bike.

Speaker 1
I can drop off the extra boxes I have before the game tonight. 
Speaker 2
That would be great! You think you have enough and then you don't.
Speaker 1
I'll bring plenty, no worries. The White Sox play the Mariners tonight, are you going to watch it?
Speaker 2
You bet I am. It will be a much needed break. How about you, got plans for the game?
Speaker 1
Watching it at home tonight, although 2 of my grandchildren will be visiting!
Speaker 2
Very nice. Are they baseball fans too? I would put them to work packing!
Speaker 1
Nah, they're too young. My daughter is a Cubs fan! I'm planning to move in with her in Seattle.
Speaker 2
That's cool. I do miss going to Cubs games. While I'm not there biggest fan its a wonderful place to see a game. Does the moving company pack too? I have no experience with that sort of thing.
Speaker 1
They do and it's very expensive. Have you seen a Mariners game in their stadium?
Speaker 2
I would love to but I haven't. That's a long trip for a game! One day I will. For now the TV will have to do.
Speaker 1
Is anyone going to help you move?
Speaker 2
My brother is helping. The good new is I don't have that much big stuff to move. Its taking longer to get rid of the stuff I'm not moving than anything else.
