Moving pt I
Posted in Uncategorized with tags caregiving, GM Van lines, moving on March 21, 2008 by ButtercupRNWell,on the 14th I moved the contents of the house I was renting to the new place. It’s a much bigger place with 2 stories and all. The movers faces’ fell upon seeing the second story and they fought the good fight getting nearly everything up the stairs without damage to either themselves or the furniture. They were really hard,fast workers and I quickly forgave then when one of my more flimsy bookcases fell apart in a sort of comical way when he hit the top of it to show it was sound. The top fell down,hit the middle shelf which also fell then the whole thing lurched decidedly to the right.He was clearly horrified and started talking in an exhausted way that a few nails would help and that he would be willing to give it a go when my nephew and I both told them it would be fine. He was so clealy exhausted and the bookcase so marginal anyway that it wasn’t worth it.I’m glad to be here but it’s kinda lonely until I get my folks moves in tomorrow. I’m looking forward to this. They were in a super expensive ALF that did nothing to help them since they were in the independent living area. I’ve been taking care of them anyway from afar and we’re all stressed out about this. This will be a much better situation.
