We are not moving, but we are moving my dad down to my aunts today. Its a super long story but basically my dad has found himself in a place where he is having health issues and has no source of income.
DH and I have been paying for his rent, phone, groceries and gas for the past two months under the agreement that he moves in with my aunt the beginning of this month. As it turns out there was so much stuff in the house we will have filled two 30 yard dumpsters full of stuff by the time we are done, and that's with dad taking some stuff with him, relatives and friends taking stuff they want, and frankly at this point strangers stopping to take stuff.
I also found out today that dads plates are expired, so we have to hope he won't get pulled over in the 3 hours it takes to get to central Indiana. To top it off he is very emotional about the whole thing and while I'm trying to be sympathetic this has been emotionally, physically, and financially draining for us as well (if DH wasn't so awesome and supportive I don't know what I'd have done), and I just want to get him down there an be done with it...
So we could really use some good positive moving day vibes with maybe some "don't get the car impounded for expired plates" vibes thrown in
