Things Keep Bump, Bump, Bumping Along

I had two movers come to do estimates. One gave me an estimate on the spot, and one said that he would e-mail me the estimate. Well, the one who said that he would e-mail me took four days to get back to me, and he said that they were booked up until the 22nd. So I tried to contact the first mover, which took a couple of days, and they said that the first day that they had open was the 11th. I booked for the 11th (loading) and 12th (unloading). That does give me more time to pack, which will help, but I'll be paying double rent for two weeks. Oh well. I had thought about going up to Chicago over winter break, but with the move so close to Christmas, I might not go.

This morning, I had an appointment at the vet to bring in Zara for a checkup and shots and Harlee for a Senior Wellness Panel. Well, Zara put up a good fight when I put her into the carrier, and Harlee heard it and went, "No way, not me". I tried chasing Harlee around the living room, but couldn't catch her, so I just brought Zara. Zara did her usual freakout routine at the vet, but they handled her really well. I made a reservation to board them at the vet during the move. When I bring them in, I'll bring one in the morning and one in the late afternoon to avoid this situation.

I didn't realize that the used washer and dryer place closed at 3 today and is closed on Sunday, so I'm hoping to go when my mom is here next week. Can you believe that next week is Thanksgiving? Time flies....
