Sat Oct 3 12:24:04 UTC 2015

Hello Debbie. I am moving from hell in a few months also. I learned a long
time ago to
do what is called pay order where my check and all payments to Pone, and
Netflix be done
by with drawl. It is easy and you get a bill telling y ou what has been done.
The post office is ugh.
I am happy for y our. I know how important it is to fee comfortable in
your home.
Pep eta is welcomed to live with me. Good luck. Me and MS. P.

> the actual move  to the post office know that we wanted our mail to still

> Needless to say since the mail wasn't delivered to the apartment and

> The movers were supposed to be at our apartment between eleven and noon to
> move us. But  I got a call from them  that they will be a half hour late
> which at that time I wasn't to worried. But a little later on the movers
> called back again and said  that they were sitting at a gas station  where
> they were going to get gas  to fill up the truck to make the trip and
> move. But their company credit card  wasn't working and they couldn't get
> gas so they didn't have enough gas to make the trip and do the move.
>
> So this meant that they couldn't make the trip and do the move but they
> said that they would have their company try to send another truck out
> later on in the afternoon to try to do the move or try getting a truck out
> on Saturday the next  day if their's a opening available. By this time
> Rick and I were very frustrated  about the entire situation. In my opinion
> the movers should have had the truck gassed up and ready to go the day
> before the move so there wouldn't be any problems.The Cleveland Moving
> Company was supposed to call us back on Friday afternoon to let Rick and I
> know if another truck could be arranged for Friday afternoon or for
> Saturday but we never got a call back from them. Needless to say Rick and
> I were very stressed and very upset about the whole situation.
>
> Rick and I now had to figure out what we were going to do  about moving
> because we had to be out by the end of the month.
>
> I told Rick we will never use this moving company ever again and we will
> not recommend them to anyone. They were very unprofessional and left Rick
> and I hanging  not knowing what to do about the move.

> Rick and I ended up  getting a couple of friends of my mom's who had a
> pick up truck and a flat bed trailer  and t hey came over along with my
> dad and his vehicle  along with Rick and I helping to move us from the
> apartment to our new house 3.8  miles away. It took us all that entire
> weekend to move everything from the apartment to the new house. Lets just
> say it was a very stressful and frustrating move for us and were glad the
> move is done and over with.
>
> I stayed up late at night  unpacking and putting things away and not going
> to bed until around three and four in the morning.
>
> I have the kitchen totally cleaned up and things put away in it's place
> and it looks like a kitchen. I got the living room area all arranged and
> pretty much done except for putting things back on our intertainment
> center. I also have our bedroom  totally done. The three bedrooms here in
> the house are smaller than  what our bedrooms were at our partment. So
> Rick has to use the front bedroom  closet for his clothes and he also has
> to put his dresser in here  along with  any other stuff of his. The middle
> bedroom used to be my grandmother's bedroom and there's still a lot of my
> grandmother's things  in there that we need to  clear out and get rid of.
> Plus we have some of our unpacked boxes in there that we still have to go
> through and put away somewhere. Eventually this middle bedroom  we will
> make it into a guest bedroom. Plus   the garage is totally full with
> Rick's and my stuff and still alot of my grandmother's stuff that needs to
> go tthrough and get rid of  or get donated to somewhere.
>
> We also got our cable, phone and internet hooked up along with a security
> system installed in the house.We just got our computer back up and running
> because after Time Warner Cable came out to install the cable, phone and
> internet hook up we still couldn't connect to the internet. The Warner
> Cable had to come back out a second time and get our computer up and
> running again and it turned out that we needed to replace our old modem
> with a new modem which fixed the issue with our computer so now were back
> in business and on line again.

> All the animals are  doing well in their new home and Gipp and Little Girl
> love the fenced in back yard.
>
> Oh by the way, I will be eventually buying my grandmother's house and I'm
> in the process of filling out papers to help me be able to buy this house.
> Their  are government  programs out there that will will help me be able
> to  buy this house. I think that's about it for now. I'm still so far
> behind on my email and Idon't know if I'll ever get caught back up but
> I'll try to do the best that I can. Take care.
