Moving Day

May 30, 2010 by Paula

Hubby woke up at 4:30 am at our old apartment yesterday and was shocked to see that the moving van was already outside. They were so early that he had no time to do his lipofuze reviews. So he quickly got up and instructed the moving men to start carrying our things. It was a tough job as our apartment was located in the third floor but he said the moving men were friendly and good-natured while working so the job was done in no time. Then they waited for the landlord to load the heavier furniture and appliances into a pulley so it can be lowered down. Our landlord was kind enough to give us back our one-month deposit that we hadn’t consumed which made us grateful that he honored his promise (some greedy landlords will make excuses so they won’t have to return the tenant’s money). Hubby thanked him before leaving. Meanwhile, Bam told me our neighbor who was our neighbor for three years and who was the mother of Z’s playmate was crying profusely when they were about to go. She’s in the middle of a family and financial crisis right now and we have been helping her find a job and also lent her some money so she can apply for jobs. She was sad to see us go and we’re so sad too to leave her there by herself without her husband to support her. I’m glad I moved a day early and was not able to see her as I hate saying goodbye and I would have broken down too if I saw her crying.
