I
was up again at 5:00 am and visited with Coz and Nikki until they left for work
at 6:00 am. I heard Cheri up in the bath room taking a shower little past 6:00
am. I went up to check on her and she put in a terrible night, awake from 2:00
am until 5:00 am and then went to sleep for an hour. Today was the day to meet
Greg and Jeanene for breakfast at 8:30 am. Out of the four of us I was the only
one that got the right breakfast. The waitress and the cook were having problems
and they never did get Greg’s order right. After breakfast we took the rental
car and turned it in, the only problem, there was a sign on the door saying
that they wouldn’t be back until 10:15 am so had to wait for them to return.
Then it was time to go and pick up the U-Hall truck, everything went like clockwork.
We stopped by Coz and Nikki’s to pick up the things we bought while we were
here. Then out to Ray and Espie’s to make the transfer from the cargo trailer
to the truck. There was a mist in the air so some things got a little damp as
we had to take everything out of the trailer before we could start loading the
truck. Things were going long good until I realized the truck wasn’t big
enough. I thought our cargo trailer was ten foot long so I got a ten foot truck;
well the trailer was twelve feet long. You can’t get twelve feet of stuff in a
ten foot truck. So we decided to put the left over stuff in the trailer and
hooked it to the U-Haul truck and bring it to Florida with us. First the ball
hitch was too big but I had another ball the right size but didn’t have a
wrench to remove it from my hitch. After getting a hold of Eespie to give us the
code to get into the garage to get the tools we needed to make the ball
transfer. We would never have gotten everything done without Greg and Jeanene’s
help. They follow us back to Coz and Nikki’s to drop of the U-Hall truck, then
we went to Applebee’s for supper. After supper they took us to Wal-Mart to get
a spare tire for the trailer along with a jack and lug nut wrench. They didn’t
have the tire and had to go to Menard’s for the tire. So I will be stuck with a
$130.00 tire even if we don’t need it. It was 7:00 pm when we finally got back
to Coz and Nikki’s. We said our good byes to Greg and Jeanene, thanks for all
of your help. Coz and Nikki had teacher’s conference at 7:30 pm with Cece; she
is doing really well in school. When they got home we visited for a while and
called it a night as we were tired from our day of work, yes we did work today.
