It's Official I am Dead

What a week this has been. We have been working on moving since Sunday, You never know what you have till you move and boy oh boy do I have alot of stuff. I am going to post pictures of our move on the next post. After all is put away. Well maybe.

We did have a good work crew sow up here. Some Elders from the LDS Church came over to help us move the heavy stuff. I think that was pretty cool considering we aren't LDS or as some would call them Mormons. But they were pretty cool and I thought that was nice of them. I don't think they knew what they were in for. Most of what we have is solid wood. We also had to have a 3000 pound safe moved from the dining room to the living room. It literally took 7 guys and a 2 1/2 ton hydraulic jack to get it going. They had to go inch by inch on that. What a fiasco that was. One of the guys that came over to help had to take a picture of it, just to prove to his wife what he moved, lol.

We are finally in the new house with just a few things left at the old one. There has been a few glitches to our move. Not only are we moving in. But my sister rented one of the apartments attached to our house and so did my brother in law. So not only do we have our stuff to move in, but we have their stuff to move in. My brother in law is moving in Friday night and Saturday, If anyone wants to help, let me know. He lives by the Ice Berg and we live in Ivins. He just had heart surgery, so we are looking for helpers and I am plum pooped out. I am sure all of you who have moved or helped, can understand that one.

But I will post more later after I figure out if I am dead or alive. My body is moving, but that is about it.

What a Week

Well, Jessica was dropped off at the airport in Las Vegas on Tuesday and she is now home in North Carolina along with JJ. She was here for 5 weeks. You would think that things would be calmer. On some level they are, but not all. NOW< I have to work on moving, yuck and double yuck. I hate, hate and did I say hate moving. But we are doing that on the first, but hoping really to get started moving in this weekend sometime. My husband chuck will be home on Sunday,so I really want him here to help with the heavy stuff and his tools. I think I have alot of other help for moving day. I hope atleast. It will take a number of people to get it all back there.

My sister Joyce and her husband is here with us. She is good at helping and she will be renting one of the apartments that is on the property we are getting. So that will be good to help defray the extra cost. My brother in law Craig is also renting one of the apartments. We will have to pay a bit more, but not much more... I will be sure to post pictures on here of the move.

To those that are going to be here to help that is reading this. Thanks for the extra hands... They are appreciated.

I will be posting more later... OH... Jessica, be sure to give Mr Mr a big hug and kiss for me...

Getting Ready to Move

Life is still crazy. Jessica and JJ is going back to North Carolina on Tuesday and then we have to get ready to move on the first. How fun does that sound to you, lol. It is only right behind where we live now, so that won't be really bad... But moving is moving and i hate moving and packing. Plus I get a bit ornery to be around when we are moving. Everyone here at the house says that atleast. I guess I get a bit stressed out and I want it done now, and don't want to wait.

Other then that, things are good. Jessica is working at clipping away her hundreds of coupons so she can do the triple coupons and doubles when she gets back to North Carolina. She is excited about that. She literally has 100's of coupons, its nuts... The other day when we went to the store. We had to have one cart for her coupon books and such and then the other for JJ and the items we bought, lol. I have to give her Kudos's, she figured out a good system to save tons of money. But, wow! It takes alot of time. But she is a stay at home mommy, so I guess it works for her. I do wish we had double and triple coupons here. I might just go out and do the same thing. My husband is kinda weird about it though. He has it in his head that she buys whatever she has a coupon for whether she uses it or not. But that isn't true,lol. She uses what she wants, and passes on to others what she doesn't use. But hey, if you can get it free, why not?

But I will write again soon and then see what is up in the life of all those around. Have a good day and God Bless
