11 days to lift (off), 17 days to lift off...

Not really much to write about today, how much exciting news can there actually be less than 2 weeks to lift off? 


Went to a beautiful wedding last night in Monsey, drove in and out on the same day, and got back at 5:30am. Besides the speeding ticket :/, it was an awesome trip. TPH stayed home with kids, and if that weren't enough, he subbed for me yesterday and today. Took a long nap today and then did some more packing, which seems like it may just never end. My biggest concern now is how to actually get the stuff into our new apartment. I tried to really minimize our things, but I don't know...


Also, there is no storage space in this apartment at all. I keep posting on the online forum for RBS looking for an extra "machsan" to rent, but they must be in high demand. Eh, what's the big deal? So the pesach boxes will be in the kids' rooms, next to the garden hoe and the bikes and helmets. 


Today made a lot of phone calls about terminating: cell phones, home phone, internet, etc. And I have come to the realization that no matter what, the companies are ripping you off, MAJORLY. I have been with Frontier for phone and internet for FIVE years, and they are still threatening to charge me $200 termination fee. And our good friends at Verizon are saying there will be a $310 charge to terminate our phones, even though we have fulfilled our 2 year plans (TWICE)! Gotta love the good ole US of A.


Not much to report on Little Red, I think I've figured out that after a year and a half of babysitting, love and nurturing at Tanta R, he is bored, bored, bored being home. Today and yesterday he was back there, and is much calmer once he gets home. Thank G-d. Maybe she'll keep him until July 4th. Maybe he can just move in for a few more days. I'll pick him up before we take off, I promise.

Hmm... it's a thought..It's gotta be something. She's doing something right! Maybe they are just tired after all hanging out and playing all day together!
