Picture's from Moving Day





Here are some snaps from moving day. Many thanks to the great "Waz" for helping me get the big stuff over from point 'A' to point 'B'! Couldn't have done it without ya, Wazza! A couple of the pic's are the 'moving boys' showing how strong they were that day and flashing the raw muscle power for all you ladies out there. We were missing one 'moving boy' that day because he was busy with his "harem" of 1st grade classmates next door! Next couple of pic's are of the family (minus said 'harem' boy) and the mighty 2 year old and I taking the last load out of the old house!

Only Update is that we are now ready to be demolished. Called the 'demo guy' the other day to inform him we were 'ready to go' as this is what he had said to do all along, telling me "just let us know when you'll be ready and we'll pretty much be ready to go right away..." Then of course he says that he's got 3 other places in front of ours to go and we'll be 3 weeks away! So, I called in the heavy artillery and had the wife tell him what was up and how it was really going to be! She told him that it would cost us too much money on a daily basis not to get started right away, so he 'suddenly' had a mate that he works with that could get started on it as he's looking for work at the moment. Before he was 'motivated' to tell her that though, his initial response was "Oh, so...are you in a hurry, are ya?" Ummmm yeah, we're building a home and we'd rather not just take our time! So, he's got a couple of days to get his act together. Otherwise, we'll pull the plug and get someone in who can do it right away. Hopefully he'll come through. Probably GREAT at demolition, good at what he does, etc. just not the best communicator or 'people person' in the business, but we'll see how it goes.
