Hi everyone!
I am back!
I got back home supper time last night!
I was extremely wiped out.
It all started Wednesday evening.
My friend that was moving, wasn't very organized.
That is an understatement.🙄
She should have had everything packed and in the u-haul.
NOT!
She wasn't finished packing or cleaning the apartment.
Oh my nerves.
Wednesday evening and night was packing and cleaning.
It still wasn't finished when we left the apartment.
We had to go over Thursday morning to finish loading the u-haul and clean our way out.
So much for leaving at 7am.
It was 2:25pm before we pulled out of the driveway.
We arrived at her new place at 10:15pm.
That is a grand total of 8 hours of driving for me.
We had 2 quick stops for gas and a pee of course.
I was tired and starving.
There was no way in hell that the u-haul was getting unpacted.
We viewed the apartment, then got a cab, I booked the hotel room.
Off to the city we go.
Grabbed some food, checked in, and right to bed.
Early Friday morning, up, showered and gone to the new apartment.
Not one of her friends showed up to help, she only has a few but that would have been better than none.
So, I got up in the back and started to pass her and her 73 year old Aunt boxes, bags and whatever I could muster out.
I had to take breaks, my poor arms and back was in so much pain.
There was hardly a dent put in it.
Around 3ish, she offered a teenage boy some money to help.
He was some worker, he worked hard.
He had to be home by 8pm.
So we did what we could by ourselves.
The u-haul had to be bought back by 9am! LOL
Not happening today.
She called the company and got the time extended to 2pm.
I didn't know where to go or where to turn to, my whole body ached.
She ordered me a green tea and them coffee.
The Uber driver showed up and helped her unload the rest.
Take a guess where they piled it?
OUTSIDE!
We had to leave it there, and get going to the U-haul drop off.
We were half an hour late, oh well!
I was kindda nervous about driving the 26 foot U-haul into the city, but I did it!
I so happy to finally be done with it!
Back to the apartment to start putting the stuff in.
I would put it in the porch, Aunt Jane would give it Lindsey.
It was really late when we finished.
The main thing is, we got it done.
There was little or no room to get around in the apartment.
We had to sleep in the living room, no room in the bedrooms.
I actually slept on the love seat, not comfortable.
Sunday morning I took an U-ber to the city to catch the bus to go home.
That ladies and gentlemen was a 9 hour ride.
They stop along the way to pick up and drop off passengers.
I went to bed at 7pm, too tired to even think.
When it was time to get up for work this morning, I couldn't get out of bed, my poor back was killing me.
I managed to get out of bed, it took me an extra 15 minutes.
I suffered all day at work.
I come home and did my 2 and 1/2 hour course online, now I did my blog.
After everything is said and done, I was happy to help my friend.
Good night and God bless🙏
Life is good❤️
