I just want things to get better and easier, because so many bad things in a short period of time has been too much for me.

My apologies for my late response; my ...Hi Nicki,<br /> My apologies for my late response; my computer was at the repair shop and I wasn't able to respond until now. Anyway, I don't know what was going on with that moving company; you'd think that at the very least they would have called to say they were going to be late or they couldn't show up. If they had, that would have kept me from wasting an entire weekend waiting for them.<br /> I have most of my stuff now, though they lost several of my things, including one of my favorite pieces of furniture that took months to save up for, sigh...But at least I never have to deal with them again.

Good for you following through with filing complaints and posting reviews. <br /><br />Sorry it was such a nightmare. Now that you have your stuff, I hope it means you can settle in and move on to better things. Come on, Small Town -- give our girl a break!.

I've always had this fear that I'll accidentally e-mail my stories to all my students and everyone in my department; that'd be like reading my journal out loud in front of the class. Someday I'll be ready to let other people read them, though. <br /> Neurotic Workaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775298184138766683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445163857888749606.post-14877965855668699522015-08-19T13:45:52.040-05:002015-08-19T13:45:52.040-05:00Oh the stories you'll have to tell based off t...Oh the stories you'll have to tell based off this experience... I'm so sorry it's been such a nightmare, but at least it's over now, right? Here's to better and brighter days. <br /><br />My computers are where my writing is at, but I periodically email everything to myself so that even if all my electronics blew up, I'd still have my files. Not everything, but the most important parts.

But thank you for your positive wishes; I appreciate it! I've been so busy these past few weeks it's been impossible to relax. But I hope that things will get better from now on.

But, you are in a new place, starting over. May there only be great experiences and opportunities in your future:)<br /><br />If I had to lose my writing, I would be devastated. Wishing you well and sending you plenty of virtual hugs.

I doubt I'll get anything back from the company; their website suspiciously disappeared this past week, and I think they're screening my calls, just like the dispatcher and the driver did (those jerks didn't even answer until my father called them from a different phone). <br /> I love Pride and Prejudice; I have a copy of that too! I was worried that those movers would take my stuff and try to sell it, but I doubt that anyone would want my old journals.

I hope you do get something back from the company - but so glad your manuscripts and journals are safe. You're so right - it's the stuff that's worth less to other people that means the world to you! (And yes, I meant 'worth less' not 'worthless' :-))<br /><br />My writing and my copy of Pride and Prejudice I was given when I left a job (and signed by all my colleagues) are what I'd miss most. In fact, I'd be inconsolable.Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.com
