I wouldnt keep coming to yall for advice if yall didnt collectively seem to knlw everything. So here I am again.
Im moving! Wahooo!! Except…Im moving and apparently thats stupid hard.
1.All along the sweet missionaries from my church have volunteered to spearhead my move. They have a truck and it has an open cab and since all of my stuff will be boxed up they thought theyd able to stack everything and tie it down and Id be finished in like an hour. But out covid warning level has gone up to red which is the second highest and they are no longer allowed to help or spearhead.
2.My backup was the cleaning lady who has been doing a terrible job lately but needs the money. She knows a guy with a truck. They can do it for a reasonable fee. Except the guy with the truck makes deliveries not moves people. So he can drive the truck but wont help with the moving at all and he cant come on a day where shell be there to at least help the move along.
3. Professional movers START at 300 and if my crappy landlord wasnt making me pay rent instead of prorating it since Im leaving I cant afford this option. But if I dont get out by Friday I have to pay rent at BOTH places and I sure as shooting cant afford that either!
4. I called the mens leader at church and asked for help and he basically said “were in a pandemic I dont want to” which…I dont blame him but harsh and unhelpful.
Ive made posts on care.com and the nextdoor app and thumbtack but havent heard back from anyone yet. Beanies. What do I do?
ugh, f*** that men’s leader. Sorry for swearing, but for an organization that claims to help people, I’ve rarely witnessed the men actually like, you know, help people. But that’s my personal rant, and I’m sorry for dropping it in on your page.
Ive never actually met her? Im moving out of this ward so. Feel free to f that guy it up! But he seems to be coming through. I just have to rent a small uhaul and hell bring people to stuff it with stuff
I hope it all goes well. Pack a box with stuff you want straight away at the other end (for me this is the kettle and cups for making tea, also useful things like toilet paper, cell chargers, food that doesn’t need cooking) so you don’t have to fossick through everything when you’re tired from moving.

I have never seen the word fossick before but I love the way it feels good in the mouth.
