7 hours and no semi!

The day finally arrived, we got our fab Uhaul truck and a trailer to load the soccer mom van,(none of the kids play...yet) so that we can fill it to the brim.  It was just the 2 of us but little Cadey Bug was a big helper in more ways then you could imagine.
We were really hoping to get some movers to help load us up but the first place that we called last week told us that our 4 bedroom home would have to have a semi trailer and it would take 3 of their workers, $95.00 an hour with a minimum of 8 hours. PASS>
The next place we called, thought we had it...but then they decided to get rude with their sign interpreter and instead of giving us an invoice with all the rates and whatnot before they got a credit card they just demanded the dang credit card. Guess what? When you are in business and you need people to buy things from you maybe you should be a little more people friendly!
So- we ended up with just ourselves and the two wheeler. Overall our day went pretty smooth and we kept it pretty organized. Maybe we should start a moving company instead of a restaurant? Could call it TnA Moving. Get your dirty minds outta the gutter folks!
Now we are bunking out on the old house in our sleeping bags after a nice hot shower and first thing in the morning heading out the door toward our new home and our new restaurant to open.
Also hoping to be able to catch a chance Saturday to register for my Dirty Kanza 200 ride! Keeping my fingers crossed.
Loaded truck. We actually downsized before the truck and donated a lot of stuff.
