Quote of the Day : "A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body." ~ Benjamin Franklin
So we moved...Finally.
Actually with only two minor mishaps, it may have been the best move I have ever participated in.
Everything was packed from the start, which is always one of my pet peeves. I hate moving while the person is still trying to pack everything... HATE IT!!!
We had lots of help which again I will public thank everyone, again, I will have to write a whole bunch of moving I.O.U's. which I have no problem with..
one of the minor mishaps was with the truck... We got it a little later then planed.. bout a hour and a half. but we got it.. and it was a BIG truck.. which was good because our entertainment stand it 6ft tall and 7ft long..
but it is amazing how smooth everything went.. and kinda funny to watch.. a Friend brought as they put it "the army of darkness" or as I was calling the the "red sea of Fury." four lovely young girls, ranging I believe, but don't quote me, from ages 5 to 14 years, and they were little work horses. at one point, I had to take the youngest aside and make her sit in front of the fan with a bottle of water, before she passed out from heat exhaustion...
I think I might make them a cake....
the truck was loaded, traveled to the next town over.. (bout 40min's) and unloaded before 2:30 and so far the only thing broken, was one shelf on the giant entertainment stand, but since it wasn't a support piece and doesn't take away from the looks of the stand I am not worried...
All in all it was a good move...
Now I am to tired to do much.. let alone unpack anything more then the computer and the coffee machine..it will be a long week...
Hope everyone enjoys their long weekend..
