Moving is OVER!!!

Thank goodness for movers.  We moved from a four bedroom, 3 1/2 baths, a full basement, and four car garages to a three bedroom, two bath, one garage and about ten feet of basement space.

The day of the move everything started at 8:30 a.m. It took two trucks and five workers to load everything onto two trucks and have it unloaded by 3:30 p.m.  Talk about cramming things into this rental house.  Luckily the living room and kitchen is good size but the bedrooms are a little smaller.  The garage is bursting at the seams.  Two bedrooms are stacked with mattresses, bed frames, head boards and boxes. 

This is the laundry room piled high

I must say one thing though, if it wasn't for the wife we would not have been able to complete this move.  She packed the whole house in three weeks with help from a daughter one weekend and a friend for about four hours one day.  She did it all.

Now the truly hard part is ahead of us.  Not only finding what we need in all of those boxes but settling on a builder and starting the build.  The building process will not start until the spring.   It was fun the last time we did it nineteen years ago.  Hopefully the same enthusiasm and getting the job done attitude will be present this time around.
