What's in a name?

I think many of you may be wondering who "Tracy" is.  She's my first wife.  We met while in college back in the very early 70's.  At the time I met Tracy, we were both going to the University of New Mexico.  At the time, there were several Diana's in her sorority so she never got her messages so in order to solve the problem she decided to "change" her name to Tracy--she was reading a James Bond novel and that was the name of the woman that married James Bond.  I met her as Tracy and married her as Tracy.  She didn't morf into Diana till we came to Denver back in 1992.  She took a job in the buying offices at Weberg Furniture.  There was already a "Tracy" in the office.  They couldn't handle having two Tracys in the office so she had to go back to Diana.  In Albuquerque, everyone knows her as Tracy while everyone here in Denver knows her as Diana.  Now that we are entering a new adventure, I can go back to calling her the name I know her as---Tracy!!!
We are down to about 4 days!!! The "about" is if we get everything done.  If not, we stay on till it is done.  We won't leave till all is done and finalized.  
Got a call from Newport that Zephyr is still fine.  Just counting the days till we are there.  Trying to arrange transportation to Newport.  Need a van or small truck to get everything there.  A regular UHaul truck will be a bit tough--especially with three cats going along.  Close quarters on a trip of that length.  Need to find a van of some sort.  The hunt goes on.
