ONCE oughta do it!<br /><br />If I was nearby, I'd come over and help ya pack and move. In our 37+ years of marriage, Wendy and I have lived in something like 28 different domiciles - maybe ten different US states and two other countries. Moving. >>>sigh<<< <br /><br />At this point in my life, I'm not a big fan.boromaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02675528140006697597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643654861670171975.post-20937332368109640262011-04-14T16:29:13.111-04:002011-04-14T16:29:13.111-04:00This is another good post - helps me connect with ...This is another good post - helps me connect with what's going on in another part of the world. Funny (not funny) conversation with the DISH rep. And the discarding, sorting out, throwing away. Yes you are right - the experience of moving is surely beneficial to all of us. <br /><br />Imagine what the Israelites had to go through in the wilderness... they had to watch the clouds everyday and fold up tent when the clouds started to move... or Abraham...<br /><br />I believe you have already inherited a huge chunk of the earth... and this goes for many of us (yes I include myself) who have practiced meekness time and time again... I think meekness lets us recover enemy territory!<br /><br />Great post, Clint.<br /><br />LidjCrown of Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993686012020045284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643654861670171975.post-88147746234626062102011-04-14T01:34:20.127-04:002011-04-14T01:34:20.127-04:00I am with you Clint, I did the same thing last yea...I am with you Clint, I did the same thing last year to discontinue service of cable, of course they asked me why I told them I was moving and they have no service where I am moving to. He said ok. Would you like to transfer the service to your new home? I said would you really string wire just to connect me? Yes we can hook you up. I said fine, then do it. They asked where I was moving I told them, he said oh we have no service out there! I said I know, I thought you were going to string wire just for me! <br />The gas company still calls me to save on my gas bill, I don't have natural gas, are you going to put pipes in for me, so I can save money, or have you started selling propane? <br />Oh me...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643654861670171975.post-35521768307655837352011-04-14T00:03:11.961-04:002011-04-14T00:03:11.961-04:00Ohhhhhhhhh.....I hate such "conversations&quo...Ohhhhhhhhh.....I hate such "conversations", telling twice or more often always the same things.<br /><br />your grrrrrrrrrrrrrr is really the best titel for the situation.<br /><br />Greetings<br />PetraNovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08191861468582115495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3643654861670171975.post-31683841628234081832011-04-13T21:45:12.021-04:002011-04-13T21:45:12.021-04:00All I can say is better thee than me.

It is important to keep up with one or two familiar things during this time like sitting down to watch your favorite television program with a nice glass of wine and shutting out all the stresses of the day, or being alone with God in your quiet place and being thankful it wasn't s worse day than it was (not easy to do, I know). Deep breathing helps!

Makes you want to smash something by the time the phone call is over and more times than not you didn't accomplish the thing you called to do. For example be prepared to still get a direct TV bill. And when you call back to get it credited they will say they have no record of your call.
