DONE!

It is done! The movers came yesterday and took everything out of the house! After six hours my wonderful home only looks like a house now! It doesn't even smell like home anymore! I am exhausted! Several nights of 3-4 hours sleep isn't cutting it! Morgan and I got up bright and early this morning to get back to the house for the cleaners! I was not about to start scrubbing the house...if you have never moved...the mess that comes with moving is disgusting! Not only dust and grim...but with two English Springers...mounds of dog hair was piled under every single piece of furniture and appliance. Maybe even cat hair from the cats we haven't had in two years!! The emotions are starting to come now! This was our first house we bought together and we really enjoyed it! We had a lot of firsts in the house!
.
When the cleaners finally finished...we were quoted 3-4 workers, 2-3 hours...it turned out to be 2 workers and 5+ hours...needless to say I hadn't taken lunch for Morgan or I...or the most important bottle of milk...so when they asked me to look through the house Morgan was fussing (she hadn't had a nap either) and I looked real quick...I should have looked better...after they left and I did a full look through the cleaners had not done the job I had anticipated! There was still grime in the shower, the trim still looked dirty, the oven wasn't cleaned out...I could go on, but I won't! I put in a message, so hopefully I will get a return call! I wanted to see a house I would want to move into...but that is not what I found! For the amount of money I paid and for the comment on my cleaning slip 'Deep Clean' I guess I expected more! We'll see...

Now it is time to unpack and settle into my parents house. Lots to get organized before starting back to school next Tuesday!
