There’s a bunch of lazy people. They are all related and too old and too young. The young ones look like sleepy teenagers. Grandpa and grandma met in church. They are drinking coffee and tea. The kid on the right is snoring. He is tired because they have been playing all day! They just finished a big job and are about to move with Mars Moving Company. The young lady got drunk and passed out. The old lady is holding the girl’s head down with her foot. It’s a rough situation!
They are going to clink their teas or coffees together and make a toast! The teas spill when they clink! They are all relaxed. The room is empty except the sofa because they are planning to move to Pittsburgh, moving from Cleveland.
They just won the lottery and are thinking of buying a new house. FIVE MILLION DOLLARS!!! They hope to send the kids to college, but now they don’t have to move. The lady has a beautiful necklace. The lady on the floor has her hand on her forehead, not the old lady’s foot! Grandma is in charge and she’s okay with them lying around and being lazy because she knows they are tired and she loves them. Typical teenagers! They drink too much! Where the hell are the parents of these kids?
When they go to Pittsburgh, they plan to eat hot dogs. They don’t want to move because they have friends back in Cleveland… but they have to… They move because they just won A LOT OF MONEY! OH MY! We all ought to go to their new house! Grandpa is having hot chocolate. Grandma and Grandpa are very attached to one another and are trying to get used to the kids. It smells like bacon and eggs, or perhaps bacon and legs in the air! It’s a nice morning or late afternoon.
It is quiet with very little sounds in there. The song in the background is My Lord to Thee! But who knows what that sounds like??? As they are on their way to Pittsburgh, they are going to take turns driving and singing My Lord to Thee on the way there. There better not be any Jazz playing on the radio, however! NO JAZZ! They also talk about John Denver and how he got into a plane crash. They are going to talk and sleep, but, hopefully, not at the same time. Grandma is very sensitive and watches everyone. They are going to see a lot of forest on the way there. When they get to Pittsburgh, they all have mixed feelings because they miss their old home but LOVE their new home. They also listen to Take Me Home, Country Road. ♫Almost Home… West Virginia… Country Road, take me home, to the place, I belong♫
