We left Atlanta last Wednesday night and have stayed at 5 houses in the past week. It has been a little rough as we have Bailey and Ella with us as well. Our stuff was supposed to have made it to Louisville on Friday, or Saturday at the latest. Well it is now Sunday at 8:30 and the movers are on there way. I guess I will be up all night. Thank goodness my mom is coming back tomorrow to help. She came on Friday because our stuff was supposed to be here, but she ended up driving all the way back to Knoxville because our truck never arrived and there was no where for her and mamaw to sleep. She is coming back again this week ... truly a life saver. Oh yeah, and did I mention that Ella is running a temperature of 103!! She slept on my chest for the past hour and I was finally able to get her down in her pack n play. All of these things I have kind of took in stride because what can I do about it? I do wish my baby was not sick though. That is hard for me to see but that is what babies do, they get sick unfortunately.
The hardest part about this move is leaving my girlfriends in Atlanta. I have done so well but on Wednesday night, after pulling out of Ellen's driveway with my car packed and Mira and Ellen standing at the front door crying and waving, the tears started. I must have cried until I got to Knoxville. They made this CD for me with all the songs we used to listen to. I have not yet listened to it but I promise I will. Ellen has called everyday just like normal so that has made it easier. I kind of still feel like I am there in a sense. Don't get me wrong, I am also very happy about this move. Brad did not drag me kicking and screaming. I came on my own will. I know this is best for Ella. She will have a better quality of life and a better education for FREE!! I also know those girls will always be my friends. This is the 4th city I have lived in and all the friends I made along the way I still talk to a lot.
Hopefully our stuff will be here soon and more importantly hopefully Ella will start feeling better. I would most pics, but what I need to do that is in the moving truck.
Atlanta girls I miss you but will see you soon!!!
