Mama Lynx Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 The truck had to be loaded today, so we did it ourselves. Please, someone come deliver a hot bath. And alcohol. Quote
Mom2legomaniacs Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Oh honey! That's awful! I am sorry. Hot bath, advil, alcohol, and massages sent your way. :grouphug: Quote
Kathleen in VA Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Oh, Stephanie, I'm sooo sorry you had to do all that yourself. How absolutely and utterly maddening. :grouphug: Quote
Rich with Kids Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 What!?! Can they do that!?! That sucks eggs...So very sorry...:grouphug: Quote
Brindee Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Paid movers? (that should NOT be paid!) or friends that were s'posed to be there to help you move? Either way that stinks! I'm so sorry! I wish for you all the comfort things you would wish for! :D Quote
Mom2legomaniacs Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 What!?! Can they do that!?! That sucks eggs...So very sorry...:grouphug: I am sorry, but you crack. me. up!:lol: Sucks eggs! OMG I haven't heard that in years!:lol: Quote
Colleen Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 The truck had to be loaded today, so we did it ourselves. Please, someone come deliver a hot bath. And alcohol. I'll leave it to Jenny it Atlanta to post a pic of some Warre's Warrior Port. Good stuff, that. So what happened? I mean, you called the movers to check on them and...? You couldn't reach them and they just never showed? How bizarre! That's when your imaginary online friends don't come in handy, eh? So sorry! Quote
Leah Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 No, no, no!! I am so sorry and I can't even imagine your frustration! I'll send over some virtual alcohol. :) Quote
Andie Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 The truck had to be loaded today, so we did it ourselves. Please, someone come deliver a hot bath. And alcohol. Oh, BLEEPITY BLEEP BLEEP BLEEPING @*#&$^! If you need help on this end, lemme know. I'm a bit over an hour away and I won't tell dh where we're going so his back should be fine. I'm speechless. Yikes. Sadly, the rum is gone (Why is the rum always gone?!...), or I'd pass it over. Quote
dragons in the flower bed Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 (BTW, if anyone else also is planning on delivering a hot bath, be sure to log in to your Google account so that it applies your safe search preferences. Apparently this term is right up there with dollhouse and moms in the list of things which you didn't expect to return p*rn.) Quote
Gretchen in NJ Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Oh my. I so sorry to here that. Here I've poured you a . Quote
Mama Lynx Posted July 6, 2008 Author Posted July 6, 2008 We rent and drive the truck ourselves, but hire people to load/unload. The hired loaders never. Showed. The phone number was bad. The company we hired them through ( eMove, we've used them before and have been happy) were clueless. Thankfully, they didn't have our money yet, and thankfully, we had a friend able to come help. And thankfully, my kids were FANTASTIC! But ... Arch. The movers on the other end had better show. I don't think I can face the piano again! Quote
Jami Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Oh wow, there was a piano involved!? You definitely earned a trip to the spa and a nice bottle of wine. Quote
Jenny in Atl Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 The truck had to be loaded today, so we did it ourselves. Please, someone come deliver a hot bath. And alcohol. Oh no! We moved ourselves this last time... I understand and feel your pain. Here's to hoping you got that bath and a nice night cap. :grouphug: Quote
*anj* Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 That's just so wrong. So very, very wrong. Like wrong enough to make you want to send them a horse's head in the mail. (Does anyone here get "Godfather" references?) Anyway, you definitely need a nice glass of port. For medicinal purposes, of course. Quote
*anj* Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 come on over I just got out of the hot tub.... Oh man, you just reminded me of this. Where's Laney? She does a perfect imitation of this!! Quote

Hugs to you -- gently, as not to disturb your aching muscles! Quote
elegantlion Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 :grouphug::lurk5::confused: *$&%*##((%#()) OMG!! That just bites!!!! Quote
genie Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 That's certainly an unexpected pain! I've moved 15 times in my life, and only had movers once, so I know the pain! We've moved a piano twice in the last year-and-a-half. Not fun!! So sorry! Quote
Brigitte Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 I feel your pain. Or should I say, I felt your pain last week over and over and over again. :grouphug: My only solution for you is to call Pam and ask her to bring her family over. worked for me! :D Isn't moving fun?! :ack2: Quote
Mom to Aly Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 I am sooo sorry! Can you call the company that will unload and confirm, so that you at least know you have a legit phone # and company? Very sorry! Quote
Mom2GirlsTX Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Wow that stinks! Sorry for the bummer of a day :grouphug: Quote
Mamagistra Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 What?! Ack! You have my sympathies and virtual ale. :grouphug: Heck, have some cyberchocolate, too. ;) Quote
dirty ethel rackham Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 All I can say is, "Oh my! You poor thing!" Moving is so stressful and having this happen on top of everything else! Grab a mikes and have a spa day. (Or shouldn't I refer to the "M" word in case people get the wrong idea about us WTM'ers ;)! Quote
Laura Corin Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 That's horrible. I'm sorry you had to deal with that. Laura (movers coming, I hope, on Wednesday) Quote

I can't believe they did that to you! {{{hugs}}} Do y'all have some Traumeel on hand for when the muscles start to complain? I think i'd get at least three tubes of that stuff. YAY, BOYS! I'm so glad to hear they were helpful. Isn't that wonderful? (You know, after you've recovered, and have the chance to look back and really dwell on how much you appreciate them.) That's very cool. Good luck on the other end. Is there anyway to check the numbers, talk to people, and confirm, ahead of time, that the guys will be there to help unload? Dy Quote
TammyinTN Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 I'm so sorry your movers didn't show. When ours were late 30 minutes I start hounding their boss...poor fellow did stand a chance. Sending you gentle :grouphug: and a case of virtual German beer. Quote
Tammyla Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 :grouphug: You poor thing. The same thing happened to my sister. Horrible, horrible. I mean, hey we're talking about moving here. It ain't an everyday thang. The truck had to be loaded today, so we did it ourselves. Please, someone come deliver a hot bath. And alcohol. Quote
