OMG!! I am ready to chow on a pot of mac n cheese! My DD is in Tampa (she moved there to get her residency and go to college) she is 19...she misses IL and is coming back to go to school, work, and then after grad. she will do whatever. We bought a condo in Tampa for her to live in, for residency. Cheaper than out of state room and board at the university.
WELL, to move her back, it was cheaper to hire a moving company to get her stuff, furniture, etc. than for us to fly down, and drive a truck back.
Movers hired said they would be there yesterday (monday) between 2-4. No show. I call, they say they will be there Tues. between 8-1. 8-1!!!! DD friend (who came down to help pack and drive back with her) calls at 1 my time and says not there. I call movers, blah blah blah. THey will be there in 1 hour (by 3 their time) No show. DD friend calls me and says they called and they were getting something to eat and they will be there by 5:30. I am trying to get hold of moving company, no avail. between their number not being avail., being disconnected, talking to 10 different people...OMG!!!
I tell them at 5:50 that if I don't get answers in 10 minutes, I am cancelling my deposit w/credit card company, and calling the Better Bus. Bur. to file a complaint. She is going to have someone call me back.
6:05...DD calls and they are there. 6:07...DD calls and they are informing them that they do not do STAIRS: they are on the 2nd floor...that will be an extra charge. Mind you, I have a contract that states stairs. I am trying to call company, and getting voice mail! DD also tells me that they won't take her furniture, they only take boxes. AND they won't carrry everything to the truck because of where they are, they can't pull the truck to the door. I call co. back and he says thats ridiculous, and puts me on hold, in the meantime, DD friend calls on my other phone (I now have 2 phones--one on each ear) and is telling me more, I tell her to tell them to just leave. She gets the mover on phone, I tell them to leave her stuff, and just leave. Forget it. Company gets back on the phone, and I tell them that I told them to go, they freak out, and tell me now they won't come back. Can you believe it?????
Now I call my DD, to tell them not to leave, and they are gone. Fine, we'll deal with that. THe comp. tells me they are just being difficult, and I won't have to pay more. Too late!
I go to my home office to get charge bill that just came to cancel the deposit, and their bus. office is closed. With that, my DD calls and tells me the movers are back. Better attitude, but can't wrap her furniture. They don't have anything....I still haven't heard from the moving company.
How about that macaroni and cheese??? I started Atkins 65 days ago, NEVER cheated....that is the only thing holding me together.
Will white wine mess with my sugar/carbs??? I think I need to calm down. I just want her to get home and safely at that.
DH came home for 5 minutes during the time that DD called to tell me that they don't do stairs, and left to go to meeting at the church.
AARRRGGGHHHH!!!
