Well, I've moved AGAIN! I think it's something that our family does.... Right Paul, Heather, Mary?:)
I am now living in De Pere, a suburb of Green Bay. I will send out my actual address in a private email to each of you. Once I have internet at home I can also upload some pictures of my new home.
Friday, September 3, I picked up the keys drove to Madison to spend some time with Andy. Then I woke up and began to move. First my car, then because of the painting the week before last minute packing occurred. Ana was sweet and took me to get the U-Haul. After a 45 minute wait I finally arrived back at the apartment to pack the U-Haul. Luckily we have 5 people moving the large and small items so it only took an hour. The biggest challenge was the couch around 4 corners! (Total time: 30 min)
OFF WE GO! I was driving the 14 foot U-Haul. My lead foot was itching to go faster the whole way. But we remained at about 65--70mph the 2.5 hour journey. Of course there were just those darn cars that refused to get out of my 14 foot truck way!:)
UNPACKING: 3.5 hours, it was mostly Mom, Dad and I unpacking. Because of the late notice and the holiday weekend help was not available.... although many of you sweet people were with my in spirit! Thankfully Virginia, one of my new fellow Interpreters, could lend an hour of her time for the impossible couch.
I'm sure you all know I didn't leave most of the unpacking until now. A good portion of it was done by Sunday afternoon. As of this morning I only have wall decorations left to hang. I do need to slowly buy some furniture. Labor Day was spent at the Farm House. Six of us baked 14 pies and 3 dozen cookies. This was followed by a movie. It was a nice homey, "down on the farm" way to spend a cool fall day.
More to come!
Yep we know how to move! Glad to hear things went smoothly... even the couch : ) Miss you!
