Saturday, we went early and picked up a U-Haul truck for the ramp. Incidentally, we also rented a furniture dolly (we had one for appliances already). We went straight to the old house and parked it there, while we did a couple of other things, then went back and started loading it. With the help of my family. Which shocked the snot out of me.
Saturday, we got the cook stove, dryer, couch, mattresses, and a few loads of sundries moved. Sunday, we got the bed frames, washer, and chest freezer. We returned the U-Haul on Monday, got the washer hooked up, and got the kitchen stove hooked up.
I still have dishes and stuff to remove from the old kitchen, and a bunch other small stuff left in the bedrooms that we just didn't have the boxes for. I'm unpacking bit by bit, and emptying boxes to take over and re-fill. It's just taking a while because I've got the kids underfoot and querulous because of a lack of a routine, and I'm lacking any energy to do much at a time. No, I don't have the kitchen cabinets lined, yet. Nor do I have everything that goes into the kitchen cabinets that ARE lined.
I have seasonal clothes to switch out, too.
I spent yesterday curled up, trying to get my breath back. This morning was spent waiting on the cable guy to hook up our internet and phone service.
I am blogging from my new (if still bare) library.
It may be thin for a while, yet. I've got a massive amount of moving yet to do.

Ugh! I hate moving! Do a little every day and you will get it done. Just take some break times too so you don't get over-tired. Good on your family for helping!!
