What a pain.<br />You'll have lots to recycle or if your like me find someone who is moving and they will gladly take it off your hands.<br /><br />One time when my Aunt moved the packers packed her entire trashcan with the garbage still in it. How nice of them.<br /><br />♥<br />JoyJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198238631600746173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-16517486248986660202009-04-18T00:10:00.000+10:002009-04-18T00:10:00.000+10:00Congrats on a successful move!

I had to wear the same sweaty clothes for 3 days straight. <br /><br />I thought oh this is great, I haven't been in Utah for a week and I'm going to be barefoot and pregnant. Fortunately, I didn't end up getting pregnant, but it would have made a funny story!AdriansCrazyLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463022076036044242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-37091125906312726822009-04-16T13:14:00.000+10:002009-04-16T13:14:00.000+10:00Yahoo!

AKA a word from the peanut gallery..... :D<br /><br />So glad you are in and back online! I have similar fears of things collapsing just as I'm going underneath/past, so I totally hear you on that. If my hubby weren't so good at home-repair/renovation type stuff, I'd be similarly worried about things crashing.<br /><br />As it is, he already has a vast spreadsheet/timeline that outlines ALL of the projects we'll be DIYing in our new home, starting with ripping out the remaining wall-to-wall carpeting before we've even unloaded the truck.<br /><br />Yes, I said "before <B><I>WE'VE</I></B> even unloaded the truck" just now. We had a bunch of lovely mover type folks through to give us estimates on having them do all that heavy labor, and what do you know? RIDICULOUSLY expensive, as it turns out, especially given the staggering nature of our upcoming DIY Extreme Home Makeover. So, we're hiring a couple of strong-backed college boys from church and renting a U-Haul and *doing it ourselves* .............<br /><br />Oh, I feel a bit faint now. Think I'll go have a quick lie-down. I want to be where YOU are, at the tail end of the moving experience. No, scratch that, I want to be even further along than that, at the tail-end of the Extreme Home Makeover.<br /><br />I'm tired already and I haven't packed a box yet! Well, I mean, besides the boxes I already crammed into our storage unit, heartily chuckling to myself as I did "oh HO, this will all be the MOVERS' responsibility now, heh heh!"<br /><br />Oh, now I need to lie down again.<br /><br />Anyhow, glad you are getting settled in, my dear! *mwah*Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027001537835285847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-9884139689344170852009-04-15T22:30:00.000+10:002009-04-15T22:30:00.000+10:00But then you'll see it was just me.
