Overseas Packing Complete


The movers handling the overseas move showed up bright and early on Monday. They packed all day Monday and Tuesday. Everything going over was either boxed or wrapped in brown paper and bubble wrap. We had a few close calls but we seem to have avoided having anything super critical accidentally being packed and shipped. At one point I was afraid my truck keys may have been packed. They did however take a 12 foot ladder we had not intended to go... Not sure what we will do with that? Maybe offer it to the maintenance man at our flat in Prague. Wednesday they came back with the ship container on a truck and loaded it in the driveway. I actually finally got rid of the fish tank I had not been able to sell, to the driver of the truck. They took that on Wednesday as well. When I got home on Wednesday night the house was very empty. Pam had set up air mattresses for us and for Alex. Logan is using his pack and play. I fear the air mattress was not rated for my weight as I found myself flat on the floor by 2 in the morning. I made my way down to the theater room and slept on one of the couches there. One thing I never thought of until Tuesday night was we had packed up all our lamps this meant any room we had without an overhead light has no light. So we are living here now no frills sorting through the remaining stuff until our flight Monday.
