Moving Day

Hi Everyone.
Happy Weekend.

My daughter Jen and I picked up the U Haul truck to move my mom into her new senior apartment today.

Jen and I were laughing and saying "we do not need no stinkin men to get the moving truck"! We handled driving the truck  on our own.  Oh! Wait!  I guess we will need the stinkin men to help us load and unload the truck lol!


So today we will be moving all the stored furniture and boxes for my mom into her new place.  I hope to get it all set up this weekend for her.  My mom has been down in Florida visiting friends and will be coming home on Tuesday.  I hope she will love living independently once again and near all of us.

Hope to be back with you soon with some of the new changes to our new home.  Hopefully this week we will get some news on permits being pulled so the contractor can begin his work.  I want to have my move in day soon and get settled in Junk Chic Cottage III.
Have a great weekend everyone.

Hugs,
Kris

    Hi Kris, I'm sure your mom will be a happy lady when she comes back and can move into her new home. It's wonderful that you all live close by. I hope you'll be able to move soon as well. I guess the stinkin men will be needed a lot. ;)

    I'm loving that you're getting things checked off the list, but that's hard work. You guys need a vacation! If you can get JCCIII the way you want it, you'll feel like you're on a vacation just having it all done! Cheering you on, girl - you can do this!!

    I know how much you tried to juggle everything so that you were both close to your mom and your kids and grands and it looks like you accomplished that and more! Kudos to you and your lovely daughter for getting the job done for your mom, who I know will be so ecstatic for all your hard work.
