Please excuse the late post...I will give you the news on the moving truck within in this post...sigh. I'm joining in with the Front Porch Meme from Monica's blog. I know a lot of you commented on my FB post(s)...
Time: 2:50 pm
Scene: Bright, sunny 85* and very warm.
Today's Plan:
We went at the crack of dawn and fixed what the movers did which was; they did NOT fill up either or storage units and left much space etc. So, we spent 5 hours today and we almost got everything into one storage unit. There are 13 pieces of furniture that will be bought back here and put in our friends RV garage. He wants us to save money and put all of it in there...we shall see...Bob comes home tomorrow after being gone for 2 weeks for his job. Thankfully his son (our Godson) was there yesterday...he kept me somewhat calm until I blew up. see below
I shall finish this by saying; about 90 boxes are damaged or torn open or up (nothing seems broken PTL) and every single piece of furniture is damaged. EVERY.SINGLE.PIECE. Including the washer and dryer that has huge dents. EVERYSINGLE BOX OR TOTE HAD BEEN OPENED AND THE SHRINK WRAP TORN AWAY. Below is our sleigh bed headboard. Yes, I have photos of single every item.
This was the reason why I blew up out late son bought a brand-new daybed with his very first paycheck and it came off the truck WITHOUT the blanket and shrink wrap and all the pieces looked like this--I lost it, I sure did:
it took my husband and our Godson to stop me killing that pompous jack rabbit (forgive me Lord). I said to him, "HOW WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR DEAD SONS' THINGS OR YOUR THINGS TO SHOW UP LIKE THIS?" He was cursing in Russian. YEP, RUSSIAN. I have to admit, my temper was flaring---and this...this just took that proverbial piece of cake to tip it over the top.
Drinking: A Twist Up (Walmart Sprite)
Listening to: Complete silence. My husband is sitting across from me at the dining room table on his own laptop listening to something on YouTube and he has his ear buds.
Watching: Because my blood pressure was up yesterday (thanks to the movers) I decided to lay in bed last night and watch a new comedy series on CBS called Ghosts on my laptop. I laughed myself silly and it felt good to laugh.
Pondering: HA, what kind of ticket the movers got...our Godson called something in... want to know what? Look closely:
All 4 tires were BALD. BALD NO TRED WHATSOEVER. grin...YEP.
I'll discuss more about what will be done in regard to the moving company and the trucking company who delivered our things --that were hired out of Miami, YEP...until then...have a beautiful day.
I am so sorry that you had so much damage. At least you have everything in your own storage unit now. Honestly, I probably would have lost it with the moving people too. I hope that this week is a calming one for you. See you again soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a horrible experience. I am glad nothing in the boxes was broken but such a shame that all of your furniture was damaged. Nice that you got everything into one storage unit and can save some cash. Bless your friends. Have a good week, Linda, and I will see you on Saturday!! xo
ReplyDeleteI am blown away at the problems with the movers! MERCY girl! I am so glad that you did get to have a laugh though. Lord you need some laughter for sure with all that you've been through. Praying as you get things situated Linda. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteI'm so very sorry, Linda. How awful to be cussed out -- in Russian, no less! I had a good chuckle about your Godson alerting the authorities to the truck tires.
ReplyDeleteAaaagh! I can not believe what you have been dealing with, with these movers. I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteI am appalled at how those movers treated your things and you. I am just aghast at what they did. I truly hope you get your money back and $$ for damages. There is no excuse for what they did. I am so sorry you had to go through this. I'm glad you were able to laugh and relax last night. Laughter is the best medicine...but I know that didn't take away all the hurt they caused you. Praying for you and Dave now, and for a reasonable settlement. And I would love to see them put out of business. It's just not right that they can do this to people. God bless you dear friend. May the Lord comfort you and give you peace over all of this...but I do hope He will also take care of this the right way. (((hugs))) I can't wait to see you and hug you for real.
ReplyDeleteOh Linda, I'm just so angry for y'all. How dare they treat your things so carelessly! UGHHH! I'm so glad you have your husband and godson for backup.
ReplyDeleteOh Linda what an awful experience you have had with moving your belongings. I hope now you know where they are and have control over them again makes you feel a little bit better.
ReplyDeleteOh I am sorry that things so precious to you were handled with so little regard. I'm glad that your godson was with you.
ReplyDeleteI am truly sorry how your items were handled. There is no excuse for that type of behavior and the company should have to do something about it. I am angry on your behalf. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I pray for y'all (and all of us) every day. That's too much stress. So so sorry this has happened but what a blessing your friends are! Love ya.
ReplyDeleteSending Love & Prayers xx
I am just so very sorry that you have been treated this way!
ReplyDeleteOh sweetie! I am so sorry you are having such a horrible time with this moving company! When you put your life in these people's hands it should not be this difficult. {{hugs}}
ReplyDeleteOh sweetie! I am so sorry you are having so much trouble with this moving company! When you put your life in their hands it should not be this difficult! {{Hugs}} this may be a double comment as I couldn't tell if my first one took or not. LOL! Sorry!
