Yesterday was the big moving day! Originally, we had about 18 people lined up to help us out. Well, I got an email from one couple saying the husband's knee was acting up and they both had stressful weeks of work and just wouldn't be able to help us. Then, a few of Hubby's work friends didn't show either. All in all, we ended up with about 9 people helping. To help bribe a few of them, I told them I would be making homemade cinnamon rolls and we'd have juice and coffee that morning. Then, to finish the day off, we'd have pizzas and sodas. I think that helped a little!! Haha
But overall, the move went so smoothly! About 2 hours after we started loading the truck, we were done. The truck was emptied and everything put in the house or shed. It was a miracle. I knew it wouldn't take long, but 2 hours to completely pack up a house and unload the moving truck!?!?!?!!? I was shocked. What can I say - we have some amazing friends! I think a lot of it helped that I had packed up nearly everything before the day even started. Plus, our bed, futon, and tables (dining, coffee, end tables, etc) were all dismantled which made loading a whole lot easier. All in all the day went by really well and without a hitch (aside from all the dirt, sand, and mud that was dragged into and throughout our old house). It was nice to have a little bit of time to just relax some and unpack a few items last night. Now the real fun begins - unpacking everything and cleaning the old house! whew....do I ever have my work cut out for me this week!
Yesterday though was amazing and I just hope that the rest of our moves go this smoothly!!

Umm....yeah
Check out this chart: (TRIGS on the chart)
2 More Days!
Today is super exciting because........we only have 2 more days of living in this house with the stinky neighbors!! I can't wait!! Tomorrow we'll be getting the keys to the new place and moving a few things over ourselves. Saturday though, we'll be having a few friends (okay...like 12 friends) coming over to help us move everything else! (I bribed them with homemade cinnamon rolls and pizza.) Now I probably shouldn't be writing a blog post since I still have packing to do, but I just couldn't help it. I'm giddy with excitement!!!
Aside from the moving thing...
I'm still waiting on one place for my surgery records so I can send all my recs down to Dr. K. I may just have to give them a call again and see what's up! It's been nearly 3 weeks since I first contacted them. Granted, the lady did tell me that they would have to go through the computers to see if my surgery was saved on one of them, but still!! It shouldn't take this long. And the fact that that is all I'm waiting for? I-Yi-Yi... Whodathunk it would be this long or this hard of a struggle trying to get medical records. I've never had this problem before. Ever.
So I'll keep this short since I hear those empty boxes calling my name. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend (aside from the crazy blizzards and snow up north)!
