MOVING DAY- REALITY CHECK- We are really going!

The truck showed up and it seemed like an awfully big truck for carrying just three crates. Are you sure all of our things can be crammed into three crates?
We started at 10am, the movers said they would be here at 8am. Was this how the day was going to go???
"Hey why does this guy have so many white shirts and suits?"
"Now look, no messing around- that goes for everyone!"
 This is one of the rooms. To the right is our 3 year supply of "zip lock bags"
Everything had to itemized. Even though we boxed it, they needed to repack it and write down what they saw.
These guys were really great to work with. The three of them were helpful and fast.
This is the group we really wanted to take. As we packed, the grandchildren swam and played.
Our dear friend, Chonie Marshall came and brought a much needed "Slurpee". She and Judi supervised and finally it was completed.
We finished by 4pm and we did get everything into our "handcarts". During the weeks prior we became friends with all the DI workers and have lots of donations slips. It's now nice to have the last 7 days in our home without piles and boxes everywhere. Hopefully in 4 weeks we will meet up with these 3 crates again.
