Moving

So this weekend was the big move.. and boy did it suck!!!! All throughout last week we moved the smaller stuff like bags of clothes and boxes and left all of the heavy stuff for the movers on Saturday. They showed up around 7:45 (which isn't really early unless you didn't get home til almost 1 because you saw the Dark Knight) so I headed over to the house because the cable co was supposed to show up between 8 and noon. Of course they didn't show up til 11:30 but it gave me time to chill at the house by myself and I snuck in a little catnap lol. So the movers were finally done around noon and my family stopped by to check out the house. My grandpa gave us some needed yard stuff and the folks ordered pizza to celebrate. We went and got Josie around 6 and brought her back to the house.. She had no idea what to think. It was kinda cute to watch her go in and out of the rooms over and over and over again. She would cry anytime we went outside to get more boxes though. But she has been going in her box (knock on wood) so all in all she has been an excellent kitty! We got a lot done with unpacking and we finally called it a night around 11 pm.

I was sooooo sore the next morning! We slept a good 12 hours though.. but then we slooowly made our way out of bed to go back to apt and get the rest of our stuff and clean. My sweet sister helped us thank goodness! It still took us about 4 hours. So anyways, we went to Walmart to get some more stuff and when we were leaving this horrific storm hit. Apparently there were tornadoes.. we didn't see anything but still scary to be out driving in it! There was a lot of debri in our neighborhood but nothing was damaged. So we (meaning Derek) put some curtains up, put some clothes and dishes away, watched some Design Star and went to bed.

I absolutely hate that our weekend was pretty much a waste, but we finally have our home and I could not be happier. Thank you to all of you who helped us, who offered to help us and who have supported us throughout all of this. We hope to be having a "party" soon after we return from Italy... which only 9 days away!!!!!!!
