He kept asking me to go upstairs, which was his way of trying to get rid of me. That way, he could go socialize uninterrupted. You're gonna have to try hard than that, Jimmy, I know all your tricks - hehehe.
I was up at 6:30 am, showering. I have to do that every once in a while - ROFL!! Got the kids up at 7:00am, and out the door at 7:30 am. Jimmy and I quickly moved stuff to the "safe" room, and cleared out the trash. I was a bit parinoid about the mover packing my trash - LOL! I think I got it all, though.
They showed up at 9am, with TONS of boxes and 5 guys. I'd bought sodas and waters for them, and had it in a cooler for them (aren't I nice - hehehe). The started on the kitchen/library/garage. The garage seriously took all day. The walk-thru guy thought we had less stuff than we did. They didn't bring enough packing materials, and had to go back at one point and get more. I'm telling ya, my garage is LOADED with junk.
I ordered pizza for everyone at noon, and by 3:30 they were done for the day. ALL my house was packed. I'm telling ya, after moving 15 times by myself, movers is DEFINITLY the way to go. The guys were nice, friendly, respectful, and very good workers. I coudln't have been more pleased.
We ate leftover pizza and leftovers from the cooler for dinner. I think the taco meat I had on my taco was bad, though, because about 20 minutes later, I was starting to feel nasty. Jacob wanted me to come downstairs and watch Dr. Who with him (which I usually JUMP at the chance), but I laid in my bed and took an hour nap instead. VERY uncharacteristic of me. I don't sleep during the day. Can't get my mind to slow down - ha!
When I woke up, I could tell there was a migraine on the way. SO, I forced myself to eat an apple, and took a pill. MIRACLE pills, if you ask me.
By this time, it was 7pm, and I re-hooked up the TV, and the kids and I watched Survivor. Love that show :) I was feeling much better by the end of it.
I put the little kids to bed, and Jake and Tom and I watched CSI and then the new one on CBS, Harpers Island. Did any of you watch it??? Spooky! I thought Tom was gonna pass out! He and Jake assured me they wouldn't have night mares from it. I only had to make them close their eyes a few times. I really wish they'd have less "skin" on shows. Geeze. Who wants to see bare bodies? Not me. I like clothes :) Anyway, I think I've found something to watch on Thursdays at 9 now :) As long as the big kids watch it with me, so I don't get too freaked out - LMBO!!
The movers should be back today at 9am. They're loading up the truck, and it'll sit in the truck over the weekend, and they'll deliver it to our new house on Monday.
Today is lease signing day. 2pm on post. I think I have all my paperwork together. Copy of Captain Americas orders, money, and our most recent LES. I hope that's all I needed - LOL! ID, maybe that was the other thing. I'm pretty excited to see what the inside of the house looks like!
It's Friday, so you know what that means??? New products in the store!!! Woohoo!! I have 5 new WordArt packs, 2 that are "smile" themed, and 3 that are a new "style" for me.

This WordArt request comes from Martha. Seriously, you guy, I just opened up my email, and looked for the first message with the word request in the subject, and did that request - hehehe. BUT, I do love this saying from Batman, and use it a lot - LOL! In fact, my 5 year old had (well, had) the poster hanging on his wall with the Joker and this saying. I know. Creepy in a 5 year olds bedroom. Am I raising a serial killer? Sure hope not - ROFL (yes, mom, I know that wasn't funny).Click on the links below to go to my accounts to download the PNG file, and leave some love if you like my work.

thank you so much! Like the saying - not the fact that it's from the Joker, though. Oh, well!
Shoot, I should have given you warning about getting a sitter or a playdate for the "kids at home"...it is hard to keep an eye on all the packers/movers do, whilst trying to keep the little ones away from all the fun boxes, paper and assorted sharp things!
Thank you so much for shaing! i LOVE your wa! Have an AWESOME day! :)
Love the word art packs!!
I can't even begin to imagine what it is like to have movers move you! LOL That definitely sounds like the way to go!
thanks for the wordart.
i wish we would have had movers this last move. my poor dh had to do all of the work since i was pregnant and on bed rest!
i liked Harpers Island, agree with not needing to see all the skin. and the part when the uncle dies, that was a bit graphic. and i even jumped once!
What a fun saying! Thanks for sharing your designs! :)
