- We made 100 trips back and forth between the houses, or so it seemed delivering as much as we could with my truck (really known as my minivan). We couldn't have survived the move without the movers and their amazing muscles. We still filled two trucks and it took all day. We are going to learn to get rid of some stuff I have decided. This is silly.
- The boys learned how much weight they could carry and maybe it isn't so fun to grow up and have to help move.
- I learned that too much stress causes really bad cold sores and according to my doctor, next time I decide to move I should just sell a child. He thinks he is so funny.
- We all learned that stuffed animals shouldn't be flushed down the toilet because it blocks the pipes. Luckily for us it wasn't us and the warranty covered getting someone out to fix it, but not until the basement flooded.
- Lulu learned that running around free in a very busy parking lot is a very bad idea and if someone doesn't run you over, the mom is going to have your hide when you are caught. (I wish she really had learned that lesson, but we have already had to chase her down twice since then. But thanks to all the people who helped us in the parking lot.)
- We learned there are always disappearing boxes that we still can't find with the important stuff in it. It is just easier to go replace the stuff that search for hours for the box.
- Blinds never show up in time to put them up before you move in.
It was a good move though and we are thrilled to be here. The Bishopric came and visited us last night and it was a very welcome visit. It is nice to know it is our own home and we aren't going anywhere any time soon.
Now on to unpacking boxes...
