Hey everybody. Ladd was kind enough to let me use his computer this morning to let you all know how I'm doing so far!!!!
Saturday was pure hell for me, lemme start off with that. 4 hours of sleep, no energy, LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS of chaos, mess, everything. Every five minutes something went wrong and Mom and I broke down a couple times because we just couldn't handle it. After 5 or so hours, we finished loading up the truck and packed all our cats into boxes(mom forgot the carriers) and took everyone off to Sherry's house to get the animals settled before hitting up the new place. Sadly, one of our cats we couldn't find. He was Choa Choa, a feral cat that hated humans. We think he ran out while we were moving furniture out.
We got to the new place and it started getting dark, so we put wood in the wood stove inside and hooked up Ladd's generator so we had electricity running temporarily. We got the heavy appliances into the house, but it started raining and it was so dark we had no time to really unload the truck, so we called it a night and Jason headed back to Fairport to pick up last minute stuff and Mom and I headed back to Sherry's with her and Ladd.
Yesterday was one hell of a day. We got up, did morning chores, then headed to the property. Between helping Ladd build stairs and unloading the truck, it was pure and utter chaos. It rained heavily off and on all day, so we were swishing around in the mud everywhere trying to get everything done. Special workers cam in to try and work on the house too, because the owner of the company that we got our house form is losing his business so a lot of his workers came and then just left him so there's still a lot of work to be done on the house. I believe we worked through 8 or so hours straight on the house, and we managed to get the truck unloaded before sundown.
For news on the house now, well...
Hoping that we can get in by this next weekend. It would be nice. I don't think I'm going to the property today. Just gonna help Sherry around the house and her horses and all that. But yeah. A lot of work still has to be done, but I tell ya, this is amazing. You come out here and nothing else matters. I don't even care about Fairport anymore. And I think I'll be able to handle dial-up just fine. There's much more stuff to worry about than stupid internet.
Oh! We have a phone in the new house now

My room is gonna look so awesome when I'm done with it. When everything is all set, my house will be just beautiful.
OHHHHHH-----
We found animals bones around the yard yesterday

Sherry found what we think was either a deer or a dog's jaw bone (teeth still intact) and then one of Sherry's dogs found a hip bone O.O Mom wants to collect them and bleach them and make wind chimes for next Halloween. Hahaha.
Other good news: Our computers ARE dial-up ready. So I'll be online sooner when we can get to that point!
Anyways, I need to go help Sherry with the horses, so I'll try and come on again maybe at the end of the week. If you're special, and I have your number, I'll probably call you in the next few days at night to tell you I'm alive.
Love you all and miss you!
