You're right Andy, he's only about 20 minutes away from me now. ? Come to think of it he didn't even load the truck when he moved he was smart, he hired someone to do it.

But the Polish in me just wont allow it while I'm still capable of doing it.
I did plenty of lifting getting ready for the move, thank you! There were 40 u-haul boxes that were packed and moved from inside out to the garage and stacked so that we could still use the garage for Jeanies car. PLUS....had to load my pickup too on move day!
I've put my time in! I'm not the man Dave is, though, and could not now even consider what he's about to do in the morning.
He's a brute!

See, even more proof the damper doesn't cause muscle atrophy! ? ?

Most of my moves have been short ones when I lived back east. They were all done with pickups and vans with all my friends and was so much easier back then when you're younger. Even my move out here wasn't to bad because I bought the house 3 years before moving here so I didn't have to move much furniture. IIRC I only used 6' of the ABF freight truck but don't think I'll be that lucky this time. Annies souvenirs alone from all our trips will take up that much space! :facepalm: I hope it's our last one because I don't have it in me to do it again anytime soon.?

Now the fun begins. :rolleyes: I wish I could start loading stuff now but I hate to say it I don't trust the area now that someone would try and break in. You can lock it up but I still wouldn't sleep all night knowing most of our stuff is in there. So I have 3 others helping me early tomorrow morning load it up and they're scheduled to pick it back up in the afternoon.

You're not kidding brother! As much as we're both looking forward to this I have really bad anxiety now. But I was kind of like this when I moved out here but at that time only had myself to worry about because Annie was still living back in Chicago. By next week the worst will be over and we can start settling into our new area. Thanks for all the uplifting text over the past several months, they really helped!☺
50 mg Benadryl should calm you down a little ..

Yeah. But then he couldn't load the truck. He could only supervise ?

My toughest move physically was my last into the 2-story where I live now. Myself and friends did all the hauling and moving ourselves with our own trucks (no moving vans or U-hauls) from one point in the city to the other. The big challenge was getting the furniture up to the 2nd story. The stairs do not go straight up but the landing between the 1st & 2nd floor reverses direction creating a tight turn around. The king size bed especially was a lot of work to get around the landing. Fortunately this is a safe, quiet neighborhood and hopefully won’t ever need to move again... :)
