| Yeah... PACKING STINKS! but you've almost got it! That's the right attitude... one thing at a time! Now, the "Cow Race".... My son, who lives in PA, has a Wii, I don't. So, all I know is when we visited him and I got to play with the Wii, he had this game with racing cows. You can make your cow jump over things and so on. I think it was with an expansion kit that contains controllers and more games. I googled it and found this U-Tube link: Wii Cow Race

| Amy , safe travels for you and your mom! I'm glad you're doing the auto-train so you won't arrive in Florida exhausted! Maybe you can find some teen boys in your complex to help with the heavy stuff.

| Amy, I hope today goes well for you, if I read correctly you've got to have everything in your cube by first thing in the morning, so today should be pretty busy. The cow race game is on the Wii Play game disk. It has 9 fun games and considering it comes with an extra remote, I think it is a bargain! I think it would make a nice housewarming gift for yourself.  Best wishes getting unloaded, enjoy the train trip, looking forward to hearing about it as you are able to update.

| Update 9/15 I officially hate hate hate hate packing... we keeping finding more and more that have to get put into boxes, and bags and get put into the relocubes. Its to the point where I can't see out of my eyes from all the dust and I just want this to be over with! I'd cry but who'd notice the difference of tears vs allergies. This is with my allergy medication (i'd take more but i'd knock myself out for about 4 hours) UGH! We looked at each other about 2 hours ago, I got online, and went to ABF Freights website (our relocube company) and they recommended 2 different companies who come and unpack for you. Well we called both and went with the one who gave us the best price for the task. So on Monday our relocubes will be delievered and depending on when they are scheduled to arrive, we will contact the movers and they will be there to unpack them FOR US!!!!!  If the Relocubes won't get there until late then they will come first thing Tuesday and will get it done in about 3 hours  its taking us like 5 days....them 3 hours! We have friends and family coming in a little while to help us load the last of the bags and boxes. If we don't finish we have about 4 hours tomorrow morning to finish and they have to pick it up by like Noon or so. So with any luck we will have everything. Off to finish up packing and will update when I can!

| I'm so glad you were able to find somebody to unload everything for you. That is a major stressor you can take away now! More time to relax and enjoy the move, instead of throwing your back out or worse. Hopefully your family will help you and your mom get the last of it done tonight so there's nothing to worry about tomorrow.

| I'm guessing that you won't get a chance to post again before you are in Florida. It's all coming together. You and your mom about to start a new adventure.  Good luck with the final packing, the move itself, and moving in. Looking forward to your post that says that you're all moved in and finally HOME.

| Updated 9/15 part 2 So my mom's friend Sharon, and my aunt Kathy came and they helped us pack the last of the stuff for the pods. We have a few things that we are shipping down but for the most part we are finished. We just have the things that are traveling in the car with us left and the rest will be packed up and put in storage here once we leave. My father paid for a POD to be delivered once we leave so that the rest can be put in storage. Since he is moving into my Aunt Pam's house and won't need any of it. So tomorrow we will finish up the small things, and then wednesday we will run last minute errands and we leave Thursday morning for Virginia!!! I will be online tomorrow I will update and let you know the plan for the rest of the time here. But its finally feeling real!
