We don't have internet in the new house yet, so I am at the bookstore cafe with my laptop. Thought I would pop in to see how everyone is.
I have had 5 days of migraines and the entire move is a big hassle of errors. My father chose a moving co and presented us with them as a gift. we went along because husband was really frazzled. That was a HUGE mistake.
First, husband was a mover in college. he knows what they need, can do, and about how long it should take. So we had everything in order, ready to go on Mon. last week.
This co not only didn't show up, they couldn't call, return a call on time or honor any commitment. When they DID show up, a day later than the orig time, and six hours later than we were told for that rescheduled day, a young guy (early 20's at the very oldest) who had to be the owner's son, flat out refused to do the job. The older guy with him was fine with it, but the young guy would NOT do it. YG was also incredibly rude and made some very crude inappropriate comments to Jess. I was FURIOUS.
We cancelled them, refused to pay even a PENNY for them showing up because of the way they behaved, and will move the big stuff with a uhaul. It will be a LOT easier!
husband was teaching a hs technical class for the end of Apr and most of May. The last day of classes he was given classes to teach to businesses and adult students going into certain programs. It is several months of work at a great rate. He also has a great chance of teaching the hs class next year which would be a HUGE good thing for us!
husband was so afraid that I would freak because his classes for the summer started this week! He wasn't prepared for me to be happy and to not get into a tizzy. I am glad it is a job, and one he loves, and the move will happen as it happens. I finally have learned that all I get from being so upset is a headache and a lot of hassle. I guess I AM growing up, at least in some ways.
Anyway, that is all we are up to. I hope that y'all are doing well, and you are all in my prayers.
