We Are Making Good Progress, Betty White is Half Way Full

Today was a blast!! We posted a local ad for help loading our moving truck and got slammed with about 30 responses - guess we're more popular than we thought. But one response really caught our eye - Jessica, a totally awesome mom, offered up her teenage boys to lend a hand. Dan and I love helping young folks develop a strong work ethic, and these guys are already total pros. We can't wait to have them back for round two in a few weeks. Now, it's time for some epic pizza, garlic bread, and an ice cold Yoo Hoo!! Hopefully, load #1 will be Florida bound in Betty White 🚚 with our FurDaughters Molly Moo Moo and Luna Lovegood in the next week or two. Thanks for following along.

Bowen Move Update

We have been receiving numerous phone calls and private messages inquiring about the status of our relocation to Florida. I am happy to confirm that we are still moving forward with our plans. The reason for canceling this weekend's moving sale is that we have been overwhelmed with home preparation projects, leaving us insufficient time to price the numerous items for sale. Additionally, we continue to uncover more items we wish to sell. I expect that we will be ready to host the moving sale in the next few Saturdays. Our goal is to have the house prepared, packed, and listed for sale by May 1, 2026. Further details will be provided as they become available. We appreciate the immense love, prayers, and support we have received from so many of you.

The Bowen Knot - Shamrock Rating System

One Shamrock: This indicates the worst service possible. If awarded, it means we would never EVER use the service again. If it was a food establishment the food was barely editable. This means a complete fail with little to no redeeming features. We will never go there ever again.

Two Shamrocks: This is a service that we might consider using again to give it a second chance. But, the experience that we had would normally cause us to award one shamrock if not for some key redeeming features. If it was a food establishment the food was okay, but still sub-par. We didn't like the food. Serious room for improvement exists.

Three Shamrocks: Normal middle of the road service. We might have had some bad or some good but they were offset somewhat. This is service we would use again but we will look for a better provider. If it was a food establishment the food was good. We like it and will return. There might be room for things to get better but it is still a decent meal.

Four Shamrocks: Great service. This is a definitive repeat for us. We like a lot about the service and recommend it. If it was a food establishment the food was excellent. We liked it a lot. We like the place enough to return frequently. There are very few detractors.

Five Shamrocks: Outstanding service. This is service that treats us above and beyond what we think we deserve. We consider this what we would want to find all the time and what we hope all service providers would want to obtain. If it was a food establishment the food was perfect. No issues whatsoever. We loved it and would eat there everyday.
