Adventures in moving

This has been quite the adventure. We were down to the wire Friday on whether or not we were going to be able to move stuff this weekend. Friday afternoon we got the Ok from the inspector on the final inspection. Then upon talking to our builder, they still needed to do touch up paint, caulking, fill nail holes, get my dryer (needed to side vent it & they were waiting for the kit) & a few other small miscellaneous things. So we opted to move things in, but keep it all in the middle of the rooms so that they could do what they needed to. With this happening we could not stay there & opted to stay at the townhouse.

I am currently typing this from a camping chair in my living room. I have been sleeping on a twin air mattress. We have a tv on the floor so that we can occupy Madison while we do a few things like last minute packing & cleaning the townhouse.

Its not ideal at all, but its what we had to do to make things work the easiest. Starting tomorrow night we will be staying in the new house as we have to have the townhouse cleaned. So that will give me Thursday to do so.

Our luck throughout this process as really stunk. Days before moving my cell phone stopped working properly so I had to go to Verizon to see if they could fix it. They could not & ordered me a new refurbished one. Thankfully it was no charge because it was within the first year & I did get it the very next day. Then on Friday the battery in my husbands truck started to take a crap so we had to replace that. Then yesterday I got a call from my doctor's office. I was suppose to have an appt today & well, it got moved to Thursday because they had me scheduled under a different doctor & my doctor is not in today.

Its all been stressful but nothing that we cannot handle. Its definitely been an adventure!

Stressed to the Max!!

We are suppose to be moving into the new house starting tomorrow. Well, it doesn't look like that is going to be the case. We will not know if this weekend is going to be a go on moving in until tomorrow afternoon. We need our electrician to show up, sod to be put in, clean up to be done, appliances to be installed & the final walk through to be done! I think it could be done! However, that is if everyone pulls their crap together & gets to the house to get it done! I'm so stressed out & there is nothing I can do about it!

We are suppose to be closing on both places one week from tomorrow. The buyers of the townhouse would like to get into the townhouse that day, but I don't know that, we can make that possible for them! If we can't move this weekend, I don't know when we can move. Dan can't do it all himself during the week next week & we cannot afford to hire movers to do it. Its kind of late in the game for that too! I'm under a weight restriction for lifting so I can't really help Dan much at all! This plan old sucks because what are we suppose to do? Ask people to use their vacation days to help us move? Who would want to do that? Who at this late in the year would have vacation days left to use?

I just want things to work out.
