Everything is such a mess here. Yesterday we pulled a freezer out of the sewing room. It’s under the carport and we’re are letting it defrost and dry out so the mover can move it. We had planned to buy new freezers there but, that’s not happening.
My car is loaded. More loaded than it’s ever been on this trip. There are things we wanted to transport ourselves, and things I need right away and don’t want to have to wait for the movers to get there and then have to find in the sea of boxes.
Two spinning wheels, Dr. Pepper, 1-1/2 pint jars Chad wanted and couldn’t find there. Lots of stuff! At least I won’t be packing but then, the unpacking begins.
This isn’t the final trip for the movers and we won’t be staying in MO. I’ll probably stay at least a month but I want to be in MO for Thanksgiving and Christmas so, we’ll have to see how this all plays out.
Teri says
Safe travels!
Sara Fridley says
Will Boots ride with you in the car on this trip? Or is he staying until the final moving trip? I’m sure you are more than ready to have this done.
Judy Laquidara says
Boots is staying til the final move. Vince is staying in Texas til the final move.
Susan Torrens says
Good luck with your move! DH and I spent 34 years moving with the Canadian Air Force. We have stayed put since 1999, and I love staying in one place. In some way, I miss the moving, as it forced us to decide what was necessary to our lives and happiness to keep and what we needed to sell, donate etc.
Of course, we have been heading to Florida each winter since 2001, but have to stay north this winter, as the border is still closed. Good thing I have a basement sewing room, with lots of fabric, and other supplies. I will enjoy working there when the snow flies, as I only have a view of the sky from the small window!
I’m sure you will enjoy getting things organized, and having your family much closer – ours is 4 1/2 hours away!
Remember to keep your sense of humur with each other!
Cindy F says
Praying all goes well!

What have you done with all the food that was in the freezers?
Judy Laquidara says
We were able to consolidate and go from three to two so the movers brought one. I brought one cooler full of frozen food and was able to cram it in the two fridge freezers til the big freezer arrived yesterday.
One of our freezers is not making the move so hopefully, Vince will use some of the food that’s left, and we’ll bring it, cooler by cooler, from TX to MO. We actually have enough coolers to bring it all if we had room and didn’t have other stuff in the car.
Diana aka Cassews says
Safe Journey, may things be good for Vince and Boots. Is Rita staying or going with you ?
Judy Laquidara says
Rita is with me. Maybe we’ll bond but I’m sure as soon as she sees Vince, she’ll forget all about me.
Nelle Coursey says
Praying for a safe trip for you!
Susan Nixon says
And by now, I can only expect you are completely exhausted!
Judy Laquidara says
That would be YES!
