6 People, 3 Cats, 10 Kittens and a Dog













SHEW!! We made it to Tennessee... 6 people, 3 cats, 10 kittens and a dog... Sounds like the start of a joke! Well, we are talking about MY life so joke fits!! LOL

Seriously, 2 days, 400+ miles all while crammed into a van, it's a wonder ANY of us are still sane!!!

BUT we're not done!!! LOL Ooooh, noooo!!!!

We stopped over night in Columbia on Friday and got to see my aunt and uncle. We stayed in one hotel room for all 6 of us (plus animals). We slept 3 to a bed. YILES!!!!

BUT wait, we're not done yet!!!!!

Saturday night we stayed at a hotel with adjoining rooms. MUCH MUCH MUCH better!

BUT!!!!

Tonight (Sunday night) we are staying at an extended stay hotel. It's nice enough. It has a kitchenette...

BUT!!!!!

The owner of the company ordered the rooms online. They are NOT adjoining!! They aren't even on the SAME FLOOR!!!!! YILES!!!!

AND there are only 2 TWIN beds to a room....

We were promised that as soon as 2 rooms beside each open up then we will be moved. As of now we have to split everyone up.

MY GOODNESS!!!!

AND there is no hope of bigger beds. They only have TWIN beds!!!

We are here until we find a house! SIGH.....



HELP!!!!!



Pray for me, people!! I am going to need it!!!

Pray that we find a house QUICKLY!!!!!



At least I ought to have plenty of material for next month's Fly on the Wall!!!  LOL

    Oh My!! I hope you don't get so desperate to get out of your temporary housing, that you choose the wrong house!! My brother did that, and had to live there a year (thank goodness they just signed a year's lease.) Hope y'all really love your new location.

    I can so sympathize with you. Having moved our family and pets around so many times I know what it is like. Your cartoon up there reminds me of not only my family but growing up as one of 8 kids and one time only having a car as big as that. We pulled up in front of church and they thought we were going around and coming back in the other door because there "was no way all those people could fit into that DKW!

    I do hope the right house opens up soon.

    Ha ha ha, I like the way you think. You'll probably have your May Fly on the Wall written by the end of the day today.

    Even though the living situation isn't exactly what you'd want. I'm so glad that whole car ride is over and you're there.

    So glad you made it safely. You will share this over and over thru the years. My late husband and I moved our 3 week old, dog, ourselves and all the household we could fit in a 1969 Chev. wagon. From Phoenix, Arizona to Murfreesboro, TN. in 3 days in1971 It still is told on holidays. Your house is just waiting. God is really in the details.
