Is all i can say now..I was (and still am) totally sleep deprived, work is extremely hectic and i dont know i how i survived the move.
I had to work when the packers were there.. It was pretty bad as we got the crappiest packers ever. I had to tell them each and everything and it was quite hard to manage them, along with the calls i had to take. And inspite of me telling them what to take from the basement and garage 1000 times they left those things. I was dead tired when they left and didnt bother to go down and check when they left. I assumed they would've taken them all. It made the next day even more hectic for us. The internet was not on yet on the new house so i stayed back at the old house till 6.30 (had to work till 6.30!!) and left. Mom and kids stayed back with me and B went to the new house to unload and set as much as he could. He did pretty good. Kitchen had all the basic things and made it a bit easy the next day. Mom and I set the kitchen 90% in the next couple of days. Still cant find the rest 10% of things!! When we unpacked i was furious, they had done such bad packing...Quite messy!!
Kids actually enjoyed this process in a way, because we were not paying any attention to what they were doing and they were watching as many shows as possible. AJ was a little confused. The packers packed off the kids room first!!! He came and asked me for something to play with.. i said they packed off everything and he looked little upset,but when i said we will open them and play with them in the new house his face brightened a little. But, he was a little in the polambal mode the next day as he couldnt find lot of things!! Basically,he couldn't make a mess...and was pretty upset about it i guess!! =)
Ashu was extremely upset before the packers came and was in tears. He kept saying i was in this house for 5 years and have to leave now. I felt so bad. AJ didnt know how to express and i thought he was fine with the move, but once they started packing he was pretty upset.He started screaming..these guys are breaking my house. hehe. He just followed them to every room and kept screaming they are breaking breaking..they probably were ticked off. After a while they created a cardboard slide to take big boxes downstairs and let them both slide and AJ went to one of the packers and said.. now i like you, you are nice after all! :-O
Ashu cried again when we actually left, but once we got into the new house the kids were both excited. The new house is more spacious and they were running around and having fun. Slowly, i dont see them talking about the old house. Life moves on. AJ infact went and told B that he likes this house and not the 1775 house (our old house#) :P
Vinod was here for the weekend befor the move. It was fun..Kids had lot of fun with him and i was chatting with him till 3.45 one night and 1.45 the other..and i lost my voice for couple of days. It was pathetic when i had to speak over the phone during my meetings on the monday he left...Vinod got a bulb from AJ. AJ said Vinod is my big brother and not little brother. Ha!! Revenge..Sweet Revenge! :) But, too bad he stayed only for 2 days :( Also, we couldn't take him anywhere fun (except shopping) as B was down with fever and we were kinda busy with the shifting too :( Next time, Vinod!! :-)
After he left, AJ went out to look where he was and then came back and said Vinod anna is gone..He has gone to knoxville. Knoxville because the last time Balaji left, he left from knoxville and all of us went to drop him there.
