Moving Day!!!
My brother, Kent's, big rig in front of my mom's new house.
Our big ugly delivery van that we have yet to sell since closing the furniture store. It sits around here. Then we say we should really sell the thing as we never use it. Then someone moves and it comes in very handy so it will remain to sit for awhile again I'm sure. Its the third move for it this month as some friends used it too.
We are quite proud of the performance of the van. Its a deisel and it was -5* and it ran like a well oiled moving machine.
There were lots of pickups and peoples to help. Some even came from Minnesota and Washington.
As for me and "my aching back" ( had to say it one.more.time just for James) I am thankful it is all done for awhile again.
Tessa helped a little too much with all the carrying and now both of her knees are very sore and swollen. So she laid down most of yesterday with ice packs and Ibuprofen. They are a little better today. Ouch!
Even tho it was extremely cold out we are ALL thankful that it was not windy and snowing with it too. And we are ALL thankful moving day is o.v.e.r!!!!!

Oh how I hate the moving...
Glad the move went well. Have you considered hiring out your truck that's sitting there for small moves like this?
Hope your back feels better.
I'm glad it went well even though Tessa sounds like she didn't come out so well. Hope she's feeling better.
Hey, if I move in the future could could send down the troops?
My daughter moved Sunday. My hubby works for atlas van lines, therefore he had the pack van and helped all day. It was in the teens and snowing lightly...but like you said...it is over. Glad you got yours all done.
Glad it is all over and you were able to bear the cold. Brrrrrr
