Well, the girls room is steam cleaned, scrubbed down, and shut tight. Ditto Brett's room and one bathroom. The trailer is backed up to the garage, ready to load. I'm sore and exhausted but so happy.
We are taking a quick computer/coke break. We refuse to ask folks to help us move (let's face it, it's a crap job, and we like our family and friends too much for that) but we've got some family that wants to help, so that's great. Mom and Dad have offered their services, as have my Aunt Charlene and her husband Pat. Mom's even making Potato Soup (my favorite) tomorrow, so we can stop in for a quick bite of lunch. Cool!
There are a few things left up in the air, like when they'll be completely out of the house, but we're in constant phone contact, and they're doing a lot to help us out (like leaving the big dumpster an extra day or two at no cost to us) so it's ok. God Bless small towns. Most sellers wouldn't give a crap about our needs. They're shampooing the carpets tonight, and gave our kids a set of encyclopedias and we bought a bigger fridge and a deep freeze from them today (cheap!) LOL
Well, break time's about over, see ya 'round!

You are a saint...or a 'saintess'. Not sure because I'm not religious. But just the fact that you were kind enough not to ask friends and family to enter the hell of moving qualifies you for something. I cower in fear every time I hear a pal of mine is moving....and then I refuse to pick up my phone for a few days. Russ
CONGRADULATIONS!! Hope you have a smooth, successful move and that you are reconnected to this cyber-community soon. - Barbara
