Today is the move
Yesterday started out with the Land Rover not starting. That got us stressed out and in bad moods. First James wanted to blame me and asked if I really started it everyday like he told me to. I told him that I started it everyday and it always started. So he drove to a store and bought jumper cables. That did not work so he checked for another problem. Then he said that there was not any gas getting to the engine so he went to the gas station and got the gas can filled even though it said that it had a quarter of a tank left. That did not work either. So he decided that the temperature dropping so fast and all of water in the air from the dense fog must have gotten into the system. He decided to leave it to deal with later and just go look at the house in one vehicle.
He got some additive put in at last night and if that does not work we will just have AAA tow it to his Grandpa's house and we will deal with it later. We have too much other stuff to deal with right now.
So off we went to see the new house and get the measurement for furniture placement. I made James do all of the driving. It was sooo foggy that I freaked out a lot of the time. There is no way I would have been able to drive in that if we took two vehicles. I would have ended up driving right back here.
It is a cute little town. The house did not impress me as much as I had hoped but I am sure that part of it is because all of the snow is melting so everywhere you look is ugly. It is dirty snow and mud in every ones yard so I am sure it will look better later. The inside looks small but I know that every place we have ever lived looks small until we put all of our stuff in it. The pool table in the basement is wobbly and can not be tightened. We would rather have the extra space so we are going to take it apart. There is still a bit of cleaning to do in the house. The dog kennel in the yard still has dog poop in it and that really above all else disgusts me and maks me mad.
We got groceries for the house so we would not have to deal with it after moving. Then we headed back home. On the way home the fog was just starting to lift so I was only freaking out part of the time. When we got home we ate dinner and then Abby and I packed more boxes. I could not fall asleep so we packed boxes until midnight.
I just woke up and got on the computer to check the weather for today. I was hoping some huge wind would have blown the weather away from us but no such luck. We are supposed to have rain and fog the next two days. I really worry that people will not want to help us in the rain but we have to get it done right now. Plus this is a very tall big truck so the ramp is thin and steep. I do not want any one to slip and get hurt. If everyone still comes and helps we should be able to fill up the truck fast.
So we are hoping that everyone is also planning on coming with us to unload it. If we can get it all loaded and unloaded fast we will try to get them to help us load it the second time and then we will unload it our self when we get there. We know we will need two trips and we have no help tomorrow. If we can get everyone to stick around long enough to fill the truck a second time we can get it all done today and not have to do a trip tomorrow.
That brings me back to checking the computer. I went on the computer and what do I see? A huge pile up in Madison yesterday. There was a 100 car pile up because of the fog while we were there. Freaks the hell out of me. That fog was soooo bad.
Ok James is calling for me to take him to pick up the truck.
