48 hours

This has been a crazy few days. My hubby drove all the way to Tampa, Florida to check on somes things for work. It's only a five hour drive from our house in Tallahassee. Turns out as he is driving back home he found a house for us. It's never let's plan to move like a week out or maybe a month no he calls to tell me to pack. Only my hubby and I can pull off a move in 48 hours. Yup, I think we are crazy.Only if you think people who follow their their dreams are.  This is a hug move for all of us. Okay, Here we go Saturday afternoon while I was trying to catch up on gh before Monday I had to pack our whole house.  We have beyond stuff to fill two houses. My hubby could open a hardware store with the amount of tools he has. I guess it's good I can always bring him lemonaid while he works around the house. He shows up that evening with a Uhaul truck. I made it work. I purchased totes to pack everything instead of boxes. I think it's better to pack away things in a plastic tote instead of a cardboard box now that our house won't be ready till sometime next week. To keep the moisture out.  My hubby and I loaded the truck until our arms were numb. I picked up a blanket that felt like a hundred pounds. We started to load up about 6pm and stopped at 2am which was really 1am due to daylight savings.This is awesome we really needed that extra hour on our side. On Sunday morning we packed our shed in an hour then it was on the road again at 10 am for a five hour drive to Tampa.  The boys were great for the drive they watched movies the whole way. Thank you to whoever you are that made a dvd player.  We made it to our storage unit a little after five unload and was done by 7:30. Still not done yet we still had an hour drive to wonderful Olando. Let's talk about being sore that morning. My back was on fire. I shocked myself by helping lift the heavy stuff in the house like the bed, tools, refrigerator, washer and dryer. Thank you P90X. You worked on my side. If that  wasn't enough we have to do it all again in a few days. It's almost makes me wants to hire movers almost.  I'm extremely proud of my family for the way we pulled together to makes this happen. Justin was beyond the best son ever. He kept his little brother Christopher busy the whole time while we moved everything. I love you Justin you are Awesome! For the next week we are spending it in this fantastic resort in Olando. If you need us we will be by the pool.  Have a blessed day.
