susandennisThree women got here about 8:45 and they were done and gone by 11:45. My house is in boxes. I made a video. I am exhausted and starving.
One of the three was a really young girl with orange eyelashes. She was a nimble pixie. Pop up there and grab that camera and tetris thing. She was on that counter and had it done in a flash. I went upstairs to get the gynomous ladder out of the closet and it nearly broke me getting it down here. I left it in the hallway. She went and got it, set it up, carefully retrieved my stained glass panels and took it back like it was a 2 foot step ladder. I'm fairly sure I was never that young and nimble.
But, it's all done. And in boxes. Except for stuff I need tonight, the TV and the food in the fridge. The head lady will be back tomorrow to pack up the rest and the other two will go to Timber Ridge and start assembling furniture.
The cats went nuts. Biggie was front and center, in every box, on top of the stacks of wrapping paper. Everywhere. Julio was under the bed. But, after a while, Julio came out to help. All three ladies were very kind and amused by them.
My friend, Frank, is coming over tomorrow to help me get them into the carriers. Biggie, I'm not so worried about but catching Julio in an empty condo is going to be a challenge. I'm so grateful for Frank.
I'm also starving. I wanted some fried chicken but when I logged into Grubhub I see they no longer do Ezell's and don't have a good Plan B but they do have a new terriyaki place so I ordered lunch and dinner. It should be here in about 30.
Oh and I ran into one of the guys from the crew who are working on the roof project. He's been in and out of here a jillion times and is so nice. He saw all the boxes and asked "are you moving?" and when I said yes, he said "oh, I am so not happy about that!" How sweet.
They left a bunch of boxes in front of Julio's window. He's not happy about that!
Anyway, honestly, I think the worst is over. And I'm grateful.

Here's hoping everything goes as smoothly as possible. Especially the situation with the broken elevator.

Date: 2023-10-30 09:48 pm (UTC)Ha - I also saw Julio push Biggie off the counter. You got full-blown kitty angst!
I know it's not over yet, but you've done well with this move. Kudos! Glad you have Frank to help tomorrow with cat herding. New adventures await!
