    The actual move isn't bad.

    The packing and cleaning is what just sucks.

    I usually take a week in January and do my P&L and go to the tax man, then send all my money in.

    There's a silver lining.

    I'm a week ahead of the game cause the P&L is up to the minute.

    And you got a truck and a 53’ dry van —much better than a dodge mobile and 24’ stock trailer and 2 loads with the biggest truck U-haul dreamed up

    He may still need the Uhaulmobile if he can’t get the 53’ within 2 miles of where he’s going.

    Can't get it that close lol.

    The new place I could. One of the reasons I'm moving out there. Park right to the house. Dude gave me a 16 foot gate instead of a 12 no charge.

    Small u haul will do it. The appliances are staying.

    Getting someone that does safes to move the safe. Then the only big stuff is the China closet and the dining room table.

    I'm not actually certain what I'm going to do with said dining room table, cause it's about a 1000 years old and built like Hitler's map table.

    Going to get one or two of the females of the species to give the new place the Mark I Eyeball and get new stuff.

    Without it looking like my mother's house.

    Comes with all new appliances.

    I still have to pick out light fixtures.

    Stuff all takes time.

    Took care of my leaves. Ran them over with the lawnmower, with the bag hooked up. Beats the hell out of raking. Wife’s in Old Navy. Spend $75, get $30 off with coupon. Just can’t pass it up. I understand. Wishing it was a Harbor Freight coupon. Grab a few groceries and going out for dinner. I’ve earned it. Not easy laying around for 7 days doing nothing. Tires a Guy out.

    No words of wit or wisdom to offer I suppose.

    Try to get a lift gate if you can. Makes the heavy stuff much easier. About the same price. No ramp on the 53’ is the only drawback. House is looking good.

    I appreciate it. Have been on the phone for three hours trying to find a BFG or Firestone steer. No luck. Guess I better take what I can get while I still have a option. Man, it's rough out here in the Mid-Atlantic I just spent two weeks finding someone who had a new style DD15 oil filter in stock and I'm still looking for the Davco fuel filter. I just now got off the phone with someone trying to sell me a Ironman steer tire. Yeah ok, no thank you. Lol
