The Big Move

Originally a bunch of my guy friends were suppose to help us move out of Rochester but things happened and most couldn't make it, so my poor parents drove out with last minute notice to help us, and we all were dying with the amount of stuff we had to load. Then Matt and I took off and drove 7-8 hrs to his parents house and unpacked stuff into their cars and loaded other stuff into the truck because we realized we had wayyyyyyyy more stuff then originally anticipated. We proceeded to get up at 4 in the morning the next day to drive to his base storage unit and me and him loaded the rest of the stuff in the 100 degree weather that we were dying in lol. Got to the apt by 2 and checked in and then his family and chad and amanda thankfully helped us move in. But we had 3 flights of outdoor stairs and a fully stuffed truck and 3 cars to unload. So people had to take breaks because of the heat. But we got it all in and i worked like a dog unpacking I stayed up til 130 to try and get the kitchen unpacked and then got up by 6 and went to the grocery store to stock up the pantry and then was working on more kitchen stuff. Found out my flight out got canceled so had to reschedule for a 6 am flight the next morning - so matt and i ran a few errands for other things we found we needed, then I worked on the bedroom. So at least the kitchen the 2 baths and most of the bedroom and living room are done. A little bit in the bdrm needs put away and then the spare bdrm needs unpacked still - that door is just kinda closed.

On the drive down my uhauls check engine light came on so we had to stop and call about that just for them to tell me to keep going, and our credit card got denied, since we were driving both trucks- and at each stop I had a double charge for gas so they thought it was stolen and froze the acct, so I had to call and have them reopen it. So it was a bit hectic but thanks to all the help we had we were able to move everything in and out of the apartments.

The new apt is really nice and I can't wait til we finish unpacking so we can post pictures!

Email me if you need the new address!
