I have never been so achy and sore, although Dad assures me the last time we moved, I was just as miserable, LOL. It is very early Saturday morning. Dad, Mike, Uncle Bob, Uncle Bill, and Ty packed the moving van all day yesterday. Sarah and I packed our rooms and the kitchen. By 7:30 last night even my fingernails hurt, LOL. Since we are not moving our bed, it was still set up, and the blankets were on the floor waiting to be used as wrapping for the dining room table. So I wrapped up in blankets and went to sleep. Mike and Sarah slept at Steph and Ty’s. Dad was up till I don’t know how late dismantling all the big furniture and doing last minute stuff. Hooray for dads, they are the most hard- working, under- appreciated people on the planet. I love you, honey!
So what happens today: obviously we are not pulling out of here at 6 am as originally planned. Mike and Sarah will be back over at first light, to help Dad load the last of the furniture into the van. At 8 am when the dump opens, Dad and Uncle Bill (I think) will take all the trash that has accumulated throughout the past two days of packing to the dump. Then the final thing will be to pile everything that didn’t sell that we are not moving into the garage so Goodwill can pick it up. Then we can pull out! Let’s hope it will be by 10 am and we can still get in 9 or 10 hours driving today. And we can maybe make up the time lost today on Sunday and Monday.
BTW, our internet has been shut off. I must be on a neighbor’s connection right now. So I have a car charger for the laptop; I will update you on our progress as long as I have internet!
