Moving
Oy, what fun that was. It was a 4 day thing for me. Really longer than that since I have been working on packing things up for a while.
Friday I started early and finished my bed room. Then had a break to meet with a friend. Then a friend came over and we packed up the kitchen. M&M then came and they watched me put things away for a while. We then decided to go get the Uhaul-- the real fun was about to begin!!! (Oh, by this time I has basically moved most of my stuff the the house by then, just 1 van load to go :) yeah, yeah I know, I have a lot of stuff. But I had been working hard to make it so I have less.
We got just about everything loaded into the Uhaul and we took the last things to my new house. M&M had to head back to Bako. I then went to the cool house my friend was house sitting to soak in the hot tub. Needed that.
Saturday-- day 2-- we had to go get my parents from the train station, they had come to take the uhaul to bako. Finish with the last things that went in it and clean a little.
Here is the fun part, my roommate went awol on me. One was on her honey moon, ok that is fine. The other decided to head to mexico and she still had tons of things all over the apt. Ummmm, okay??!!
So we tried to work around that. We got on the road to Bako to unload, some at my parents and some at M&M. Unlaoding was easy, with it could have been loaded that easy :). I tried to catch those crazy Barnyard girls, but only got to wave at them and yell from our car to theirs.
Back on the road to Fresno, a stop in WAsco to see K's family. I was left at my apt where some of my sorority girls helped me take the boxes for storage to my apt. We went to Chinese food and after that I decided to head to my house.
The girl whose room I am in, well....She didn't leave me much room. So, I was all by myself in a new house (I had visited there tons of times, but never to live). I was so frustrated and didn't want to be there by myself, but I had to be a big girl.
Sunday-- day 3-- I went over to the apartment to work more on cleaning. All by myself for 4+ hours!! What fun. I cleaned a disgusting bathroom, the Kitchen, and so much more. I was done by the 4th hour. Went home to start on my room. I have a floor!!! Woo hoo.
Went to church and then went back to see if my roommate made it back to get her things and help.......NO!! Ohhh I was mad. But it was after 9 pm, not much I could do.
Monday-- day 4-- get a call from roommate she had showed up to get some of her things after I left, but not all of it. So, working was out of the question, lots to do still in the apt. So I cleaned from 10am, a friend came at 11, that was a God send. WE worked until 4, not really taking breaks except about a 20 minute one for lunch.
Roomie shows up at 2:30. We had piled up all her things in the hallway between the 2 units. WE had cleaned her room and almost all the apt by then. What a help it was for her to finish the refrigerator after she had removed her crap from it (ok, maybe I am a bit bitter, but I think I deserve to be). So I told her I was charging her for all the extra work I had done, she said ok!!
4:30-- check out time. She said it looked really clean. There were a few things...the things I didn't want to do....but over all real good. We had been there 4 years, so the carpets definitely need a good cleaning and the wall can use some paint.
I have never cleaned so much!! This was too much even for me. I cleaned base board, stoves, toilets, everything!!! 3 floors. I don't want to clean any more.
So my chore around here?? The floors!! Lucky me and I think they need done. Oye!!
