Life is interesting and busy!

February 18th, 2026 at 11:14 am

We have finally moved, we still have a few things to do at the old house but we have everything moved and finished cleaning the house today, have to have a part of the floor repaired and the garden done which will be done thurs and friday. I have to say I don't know what it is about moving but as much as I plan and execute it just all falls apart everytime. First I hire a company only to find out the day before late in the day that they hired a 3rd party to do it instead, that company showed up 3.5 hrs late, then wanted cash instead of me paying with my card. So we gave them cash and got them to sign something saying we paid them the cash...which they did which was fine, we just had to go get the cash. then they ripped the flooring and when I called the company that we hired they movers denied it and said it wasnt them. I had photos and told the company that yes they did do it and they will cover it or i will take it further. So they offered me $100. I wasn't happy but already have a quote on patching the floor and it was $150 so figured I would only be $50 out of pocket but I just have so much going on right now. Anyways we discussed it some more and they offered me $180 as long as I didnt come after them for anymore so I took it and bonus is only costing us $150 to fix. 

I have to say I am so grateful for my daughter, niece & nephew (in law) did so much of the move for us me and hubby were down sick and with my chronic illness I just couldn't do as much as I wanted but they made sure it was all moved even though they had to work on monday. They were so amazing, they wouldn't take money so I did send them some and told them to get a nice dinner or do something nice together..they eventually kept it...we finally got the house cleaned today and just have a few things left to do then can hand it back. Now we just have to finish unpacking boxes and settle into the new place...I know I don't have the energy I use to have when I was 20 LOL!!

On another note my taxes still aren't showing up online and I know they got there a month ago because they signed for them so hoping they will be done soon. 

other than that life has been busy but just to tired to write it all down...and only averaging around 4 hrs a night...I have 4,30am itis LOL...for some reason I am waking up at 4.30 every morning for the last 4 or so days. Well time to get some sleep and get back to it tomorrow

    Sorry you had that unpleasant experience with the mover damaging your floor but glad you negotiated something you're satisfied with.

    I don't know if they lied or was just oblivious, but I really despise liars, so I hope they were just oblivious. Anyway, glad to hear they were willing to reimburse you.

    Tabs- they lied they know they did it and just didnt want to take responsibility...they wont have a good review from me at all..just glad they did the right thing.

    patientsaver - yes I am not one that will give up easily and also wont put up liars or cheats and pretty good at negotiations...I am a fair person.
