Well life has been exceeedingly hectic for us. First we had the Thanksgiving holiday, which we had a great time! We just had a small dinner at our house with my parents and a family friend. But then came the move. Well we were all packed up and ready to move on Saturday, we took the first truck loads over Saturday morning. Only to find out the house was not ready to move into. It is a brand new house, never lived in, but it was one of the model homes, and the property management people who were selling it, still had all their furniture in it, and had not had the carpets cleaned as promised. So he said I will get everything out and get the carpets cleaned and you can move in Wednesday. AUGH!!!!!!!!!! Well our entire house was packed up, all the clothes, all the kids' toys, all the food, all the kitchen, (do you get it?), AND the utilities were being shut off, per our request to transfer our services. So now what???? Well it was a few rough days but with the help of some wonderful friends, who brought us into their homes and fed us and let the kids play some, we survived. I called the property management people on Monday morning and told them we did not want the carpets cleaned and we would move their things out and into the garage for them, as long as they let us move in on Monday. Well the guy I spoke with agreed to get all their things out and he would not get the carpets cleaned, but we were finally able to get the keys on Monday afternoon. So we had a HUGE moving party, and we are in, still tripping over boxes but we are in:) I HATE moving!
