The move to Utah was uneventful. I managed to get myself there, driving a moving truck with my van in tow. I even strapped the dang car to the tow vehicle because the old folks at U-Haul told me they couldn't do it for me.
"That's why I gave you the pamphlet," the old woman crooned.
Half an hour, a downpour, and some frustrated expletives later, I'd done it myself. Now I'm the queen of tow behind hookups.
I'm almost done unpacking. I love my new apartment and my new neighborhood. It's very peaceful, and I forget I'm in the city when I'm walking around it with my toy poodle. He loves it too. There's ducks to chase, and any number of other dogs to sniff up.
The only down part is the room my girls are sharing isn't big enough for all their stuff. I downsized from a 5 bedroom house to a 2 bdrm apt. I'm happy I fit anything in here! They'll do fine, if they don't kill each other. Maggie's been off at camp all week, so we'll see how it goes when she's back, bored, and ready for school to begin.
Speaking of which, they wouldn't let me register her at all because I had an old immunization record that was missing some things. At least in Wy they give you 30 days to rectify the situation. A quick call to my Dr. and a fax showing she truly was up to date and I can reschedule her registration.
I've been on vacation all week. I am thinking I'll not want to go back Sunday, but what can you do? LOL
