Moving Day

1 AM - Randy called to say he is getting ready to call it a night.
Still a few hours of work in the morning.
Asked for a 7 AM walk up call.

7 AM - The landline phone already disconnected.
Randy was a wake and moving. YEAH
He will check in with me later.

9:30 AM - I just called to see how things were going.
Seems they still have quite a bit to do.
Expecting to leave after lunch rush hour.

12:30 PM (not posted until 1:50 - sorry)
I called again to see where things stood.
Randy had a storage space at apartment.
It includes gobs of paperwork from last 20 years.
Attempted to sort thru it all before loading.
One good thing is he found the mini van's title.
So hoping to get it transferred before leaving.
He thinks it will be a couple more hours of packing/loading.
I was able to tell him there is snow expected ...
if they decide to still go the upper New York path.

2:10 PM - Got wedding gift delivered at apartment.
So called Randy to let him know I wanted to open it.
They are still in packing/loading mode.

Afternoon into evening - Packing rest of apartment.
The original packing focused on movies, CDs and books.
With that stuff out it made room for the mundane packing.
He certainly had more of that than he had thought!!!

7:30 PM - The mini van's title has been transferred.

8 PM - The Uhaul has finally been totally loaded.
Waiting for Mandy to pick up apartment keys.
That is the lady that is taking over Randy's lease.
They should be hitting the road shortly thereafter.
He will check in at their first stop on the road.
There is the possibility of snow on either route...
so they will be taking it nice and slow for safety.
May be switching to the across Pennsylvania route.

8:30 PM - Mandy is at the apartment. Woo Hoo!!!
The guys will head out VERY SHORTLY.
And they will take 80 across Pennsylvania.
JD slept some when Randy was packing ...
So he has the first shift of driving tonight.
Randy says he'll be some sore when this is done.

10:30 PM - After a few stops headed out of town.
Got supper at Wendy's and more water at Walmart.

BJ,
Everything is okay - just taking longer than expected.
Called him at 12:30 but just getting ready to update the blog now.
Did not mean to leave anyone hanging.
