Life on Florida’s West Coast

Moving Woes

Was reading AlyCat’s Claws and it reminded me of our last move. The process itself was easy since the movers packed, moved and unpacked us. Leaving Gainesville was terrible, but an essential part of said move. The ex’s company paid, so that was painless. And, we used a major moving company. BUT, they subcontracted and that was the nightmare. The guys tried to get us to sign off on the move before they even left our old house, saying they needed to get the money for the move before Christmas. We refused and should have seen a red flag and called the moving company. When we got to our new house they parked the trailer somewhere overnight and it got towed and they did not have the cash to get it back, so my trusting ex LENT them the cash. We never did get that back. Worst of all, they stole my wedding and engagement rings. Of course, their word versus our and nobody from the moving company ever helped us recoup the cost. Somewhere, this trashy chick from Ohio is wearing my rings, I just know it.

Never trust trashy chicks from Ohio. Stupid buckeyes. I don’t even know what they are, but I hate them!
