Phew! Rental Truck Reserved

After a few days of checking moving rates, trying to figure out how to fit 40 ft. of trailer and ramp onto our block, calculating how much of our stuff we could stuff into a small pod, dreaming about living on the streets of South Texas and worrying I finally reserved a Penske truck for our move. It seemed like the most practical way to move and I was able to get a great rate by asking if they would honor a competitors price, which they happily did! It never hurts to ask! The Penske trucks are supposed to be newer and better than Budget or UHaul so lets hope this move goes more smoothly than our past moves using the competitors. I don't look forward to packing all our stuff into the truck, I think I'm going to call some local moving companies and check on the cost of hiring a couple guys to help Justin move our big appliances and furniture into the truck. Moving will start on the 27th! Justin will be sleeping in the moving truck to make sure all our stuff doesn't get stolen : )

It's times like these that I'm very tempted to sell ALL our stuff and start over!

You know, owning stuff has it's problems. I'm going to use a bulldozer when we leave NY.
