This post is mostly just my brain rambling (so sorry) as I spent my first night last night at the new place, by myself (well with two dogs) since Mark is traveling this week. I must admit I locked all the doors and left a hall light on. It is spooky walking around a dark … Continue reading Gone Country: First Night

Customer service is not what it used to be. As you have all followed along in my saga on the move, we realize not everyone takes pride in their work anymore. And hence my vent today on horse transport companies. Because Remus still doesn't have a ride down here yet. My thoughts If your web … Continue reading Forget Two Tickets to Paradise: How About One Ticket For The Fat Buckskin?

So we got our things delivered on Saturday. But when Saturday morning arrived we still weren't sure we were getting anything delivered. No confirmation, no time. The only thing I heard from our coordinator Beverly was that they had gotten my message bout not bringing the tractor trailer down our roads and that they needed … Continue reading I Am Never Ever Moving Again!

Woohooo, the truck comes on Saturday. They listened to me and offloaded our stuff into a smaller truck. Thank goodness as I had nightmares of my whole,new to me fence going down like a bunch of dominoes when an 18 wheeler hits it LOL! But anyway, our things get back to us and set up … Continue reading Our Stuff Arrives Saturday!!

Not a lot to post today.

The good news the dogs and cat are doing fine. The bad … Continue reading Love the New Place: Will Love It More When It is Furnished!

So leaving around 2 on a Friday in the Northeast Corridor means, yes you guessed it, TRAFFIC. I ended up going around Baltimore toward Frederick to 81 and went 81 … Continue reading You Can’t Drive 55: Driving to TN

I was typing on my laptop on the desk that soon was yanked from under me to put on the dang biggest tractor trailer I have ever seen. We are only filling … Continue reading That’s A Wrap: House is Empty!

This might be a record, four blog posts four days in a row. Meanwhile as of Weds afternoon at 1:23 pm when I began writing this sucker I STILL DON'T HAVE AN UPDATE ON IF OR WHEN A TRUCK IS ARRIVING AT MY HOUSE. Pardon the caps but I am steamed. This lack of communication … Continue reading What We’ve Got Here….Is a Big Failure!

UPDATE: No truck today and they are calling me back between 12-1 to SEE if they have a truck for tomorrow. I have told everyone I can that this bullshit. Stay tuned! UGH... I had another blog post that I wanted to write for Wednesday but I am in such a dark, angry place I … Continue reading There Are No Words For How Messed Up This Move Has Been!

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers for Gretchen. She is doing fine BUT we ended up not getting the surgery. She had a reaction to the milder version of anesthesia they were using and the vet called me and asked if it was okay to use the full version of anesthesia (i.e. … Continue reading The Surgery That Didn’t Happen: Why Doesn’t Money Grow on Trees Yet?
