ten days until gio's birthday
and fourty-one days from the day that gio and i saw this house for the first time.
today is my second morning waking up in my new house. this is the first time that i have really lived in my own space, and i am realizing that every piece of furnature that i own is too large! i want to cut the legs down on several pieces.....maybe i should wait for my dad to get here to help me do it right and not in a moment of frustration. i don't have an exact date for when my dad arrives - i am figuring on 2 weeks to a month from now.
last tuesday was move in day party!!*%#@!!!!
i really do need to stop calling these work events parties but it just puts a happier ring to them....
friday: carpet ripping out party
saturday: painting party
tuesday: move gio, mikey, and jenny party.....this party lasted eleven hours!!!##@%!!!!
i really have to especially thank nick hoppman for haning in with us all day!!! he helped mikey pack after mikeys shift (closed and out by 1:30am) asleep by five am and with us to unload gio by eleven....
back of nick's head
we all thought that mikey didn't own very much stuff.... i even thought that one and a half hours would be enough time for moving him....four hours later......
with everyone worn out or mia we slammed my large furniture into my house and i decided that we would get the rest later.....i didn't care anymore.....i rent another truck next week or risk it in the toaster truck!!
too pooped for a flash
all in all i do have wonderful friends that pitch in when needed!
mikey is now being quoted "that moving days are our modern barn rasing."
everyone straining and sweating together to help a family make their goal.
super sweet.
thanks again to nick, willy crook, sam, trish, zakk, harlen, stacey, kevin.
and a special thanks to the wonderful giovanni who showed his true colors of keeping great spirits all day and for being a rock when i needed you to be.
thank you all i love you all very much.
