Moving help-Kudos!!!!
Thanks to everybody who gave a hand on Saturday...You're wonderful! Over the course of the day, we had 11 people help out, and we got all the furniture moved! YAY!!
Special kudos to
eanja, who stayed till the bitter end...of course, we were dangling a food-carrot her way. Which eventually involved late-night pre-dinner margaritas at an Italian place, to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.
G.: I don't know if you'll read this, but you left your Diet Coke behind. ;-) Thank you so much for your physics know-how on that sofa! Glad we could get you back in practice for moving.
Sunday's yard sale happened, though getting up that early after moving day was not a high point of my life. We *still* have sofas for sale; please, pretty please reply if you're interested in acquiring any, as we have nowhere to go with them. Hopefully there will be Craigslist ads linked here soon.
EDIT: Craig's list: sleeper sofa, free loveseat.
As of this morning, we had 3 rooms fairly well assembled, and lots of small things still at the old house. Plus a couple easy chairs that we decided to hold onto during the yard sale, which hopefully will move to the new place this coming weekend. Anybody have a truck?
Now...sleepy. sore. tired. bruised. But amazed at how well things went this weekend. It's so nice to have friends!!!
Note to self: Avoid the Norwood, MA U-Haul center, as dealing with them Saturday morning took 3 times as long as it ought. There was only one guy on the counter, and he was far less than ept. What ever happened to "Never tell a customer 'No'?" Then again, his eptlessness resulted in us not being charged for rental of the ever-so-essential appliance dolly. :-/
