Panicking now...

I just don't see how I can get everything packed, moved over and cleaned up by Thursday. Landlady says the new tenant moves in on Friday. [livejournal.com profile] redhatmary and I spent all afternoon packing stuff at the old place. When I tried to unload at this end, the door lock on the van broke and I can't get things out. I am so very very tired -- as is the rest of my family. Now [livejournal.com profile] airshipjones has the flu, which usually means I will get it eventually. I am trying to hire help for the cleaning part. But I don't trust a stranger to pack my things. Arrgh! Anyone out there able to help? Please?

Sadly, too booked with an insane schedule myself. That, and praying I don't get the flu....

So sorry to hear about the door lock on the van. *searches brain* Maybe you could talk to my friend [livejournal.com profile] wjr about it. He's very handy with such things, and you might be able to help him out with some stuff at some point. Tell him I sent you.

(hugs) from a safe distance!

Okay, ouch!

I had similar problems with my last move, so you have my sincere sympathies. And if I weren't three thousand or so miles away, I would come help.

*bear-hugs*

I keep not commenting on stuff like this, 'cause I'm too far away to help, it's just a waste of your time to get a supportive hello, but here's hoping you can get through it okay.

(((hugs))), albeit from afar.

I missed the first part of your move because I was moving my mom from DC to Baltimore, and now I can't help for the last part of your move because I'm recovering from the flu as well. I'm with you in spirit, for all the good that does...

Yipes - my schedule's fairly booked for the next few, but I'll keep you in mind if anything frees up. Good luck!

We've been struck down by the flu-beast over here, so we haven't been able to lend as much of a hand. However, I'm pretty sure I can spare a couple of hours each on Wednesday and Thursday, and I might be able to give you some of my time tomorrow depending on how I feel by then.

Maybe something.....

I have school in the morning and Early afternoon. But thursday, I should have all afternoon, and into the night. I may be able to do some of the moving. My breathing's doing better lately. I don't think I have your number directly, or I'd be calling it. I don't know what will need to be done at that point, but I would stay up all night helping if you need it. The other posts, I thought the new tenants were moving in on Thursday, and I don't have any time available before that. But I can help on Thursday all afternoon and evening. my cel phone # is at shelteringsky.net. Please contact me with directions. It's what I've got to offer.
