OMG!! Yesterday was way worse then I had anticipated. It was a giant CLUSTER F*** from HELL!! Our moving muscle tried to back out at the last minute, and I do mean the last minute. I got the U-Haul there, Sara and I are hauling stuff down to it, nothing can be loaded until the couch and love seat are loaded, and where is my son-in-law and his two brothers to load them, NOT WHERE THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO BE! So let me tell ya Mom was getting pissed, but I kept my cool the whole time. Not one time did I loose my temper. So the guys finally get there about 3.5 hours later then they were suppose to, and they sit there for 45 minutes trying to decide how to load the truck, didn't seem like a you needed a genius to me to figure that out. I'm not going to go into details about all the other shit that went wrong, I would be here all day. We finally get back home to Sara's new apartment and the calvary was there. My parents showed up with my uncle and the husband and my other daughter showed up and we got things unloaded very quickly. And then out of the mouths of babe, my beautiful daughters say "What are we going to cook for dinner?" And that means, "What's Mom going to cook for dinner?" My response was "I aint cookin shit." So then of course they look at their Dad and say "what are you going to BBQ?" Gotta love those girls. So we ended up having a full course meal, at 8:00 at night, and I done the dishes as usual, still not loosing my temper, and they ended up staying until 9:00. And today I am so sore I can hardly move. Thanks to the husband I got a wonderful foot rub last night, thanks baby.
So if any of our kids ask me anytime in the near future to help move, I am headin' out of town for awhile. Going to Canada or something.
Thanks Doc, for the obviously good counselling. Kept my temper in check all day long, even when my son-in-law took our part of the awning at Sara's old apartment with the U-Haul.
I love our kids, but they are wearing me out. 🙂
