Ongoing moving saga update:
Still no furnace, stove top, oven or garage door openers. After trying to work through a women I work with to get a trailer to haul our Kubota tractor to our new house to be able to cut acres of grass and till our garden, we called U-Haul to get a trailer. Website wasn’t working, so I called Sunday night. Great experience! They had one in Coloma and my wife could pick it up when I was done with summer school at 11:30 and meet me at the old house. They called later to confirm said appointment.
School gets out on Monday, I check my phone to see my wife is, in fact, in Coloma and proceed to meet her there. As I’m driving, she calls to tell me that she doesn’t see the trailer we need in the parking lot. The girl there says she doesn’t normally do trailers, and the guy that does isn’t coming in today. AND she doesn’t see us in her system to be picking up a trailer. I hang up, pull into a boat launch (no cache there?) and look up the number that confirmed my trailer. Coincidentally, U-Haul called at 11:45, as I was picking up my phone to call them. They informed me that they didn’t have a trailer in Coloma despite the email and conversation I had the previous night. I needed to go to Waupaca, and return the trailer to Waupaca. Reception was bad, so I had them call my wife and that’s when I started thinking about how this was not good for us.
Eventually, we scrapped the U-Haul (no charge) and found a place in town that rented along with doing several other things we needed now or will need soon. Nice change of pace for how things have been! Brought the tractor to the new house rather uneventfully, especially when my wife and I are trying to figure out things together.
Took me three hours to do a 10 minute switch on our tractor yesterday, but got tilling done and will be doing more when I get home today.

for June 18th. Happy Pre-Anniversary bartrod!
