I just kept telling myself 'Thank You God for selling our house and giving us a place to stay.'

We got the apartment a day earlier than expected, so all day Friday I loaded up my car with boxes. I would then unpack them and carry the empty boxes back for a refill. I made three trips and must have made fifty trips up and down the stairs in the town house. Saturday morning EJ had an inservice so I started the loading and reloading again with two more loads. He finished at noon and started loading the trailer with furniture. His assistant coach came and helped out...what a blessing. They made two trips and got all of the 'two man pieces'.

This is where the adventure begins... Our box springs would not fit up the stairs no matter how they tried to twist or turn it. We thought about getting one of our beds out of storage but I decided I would rather roll off the mattress on the floor every morning than try to sleep on a full bed while being pregnant. Last night was our first night sleeping on the floor and it was in my top five worst nights of sleep ever! We forgot our pillows and my body pillow at the house but we were too tired to drive back over and get it so I figured one night wouldn't make a difference...hahaha. The evening started with Duke trying to get on the bed...we kicked him out of the bed a couple of times and the honorary little toot peed on the floor out of spite. So we put him in the bathroom for the night which made him nervous so he paced around all night running into the door stoppers, so we heard BOIOIOING, BO-OI-OING all night. Then Kala tried to cuddle all night. She was sleeping on the floor right next to my side of the mattress and would lay her paw on me all night. So I was up at 6 this morning with an achy lower back (thanks to not having a pillow under my side...thanks Melody) and decided to go back over to the house and get the shower curtain that we accidentally left over there while EJ was sleeping. First I took the dogs out and I forgot to take Kala's diaper off (she is in heat) and so she peed in the only diaper we had brought to the town house. The morning was not off to a good start and I just kept telling myself 'Thank You God for selling the house and providing us with a place to stay'. I got back from the house with a fresh diaper and the shower curtain, then set up the shower curtain and I turned the water on and then tried to pull the stopper to make the shower head run...but nope! It was stuck! So I decided it was time to wake EJ up and see if he could fix it....but nope! So after I had a small little emotional breakdown from exhaustion and frustration we packed up all the shower stuff and our church clothes and went back to the house to get ready! Thank You God for selling the house and that we have possession until Wednesday and that we didn't cut the water off until Monday!

We now have just one load of little stuff left that I will get tomorrow and then I will clean the house a little bit and turn over the keys to our first home...tear, tear.

Saturday night EJ was in a 'Dude Looks Like A Lady' contest, but that requires it's own post including a video of the talent portion that I will post as soon as our internet gets hooked up at the town house.
