OK Marks, calmly step away from the keyboard and take a few deep breaths. You may be kidding but the truth is often spoken in jest!!!!!

Geri, I had the same moving company Nick does (we live in the same state). He and I discussed this at length the other day. Not gonna bore everyone again, but will say this so you understand. I paid for a day of professional packing and well long story short, that co broke, destroyed and damaged a TON of my property. That's why I am STRONGLY suggesting he doesn't let them anywhere near anything important. ETA and I'm crossing my fingers he gets a good team and has a MUCH better move than I did. Now I'm officially done on this topic lol

Wow Lurk, that really sucks. We have used the same movers for 3 moves and they have been close to perfect. Wish everyone could find movers like them. I stand corrected

I'm surprised no one is watching BB on TV tonight. I looked for a thread but didn't see one.

I lied just saw Nick's post (I had only seen Geri's when I replied), so just one more thing. One thing I didn't mention the other night was a hand painted cabinet they knocked all the paint off, said they would repair and virtually repainted so it looked totally different (they said they have master artists/repair people). I will honestly keep you and your stuff in my prayers come move day!

LOL Marks forgot the whole Popeye The Sailor song that goes along with all that. I swear if Jessie would try and go get some votes with the realization he's going to be put up I would actually be impressed. I would love love love for them to put one of those electric dog collars on Chima and when ever she said anything about Russel, used the word terrorist or how she's going to throw a fit if she doesn't get her way I'd zap her. She'd be in convulsions for hours.

I'm in Metro Boston Reenie. And it sure did Geri! My biggest hope for Nick is I did have friends recommend them and they have a GREAT move, I just got a team from HELL. I'm so hoping Nick's experience is like my friends was! I'm watching the J/J haircut FB and I'm not finding it that funny. Jeff is being obsessive, but Jordan is being really sweet. Maybe things change, but I'm not seeing where he was sooo sweet to her. I might have hit him at this point lol

Nick, has he done any of the high end crafts shows here? Wonder if I know his stuff. If not he should consider it. And depending on what he does there is a huge market here you know. An old neighbor of mine when I lived in Boston was a fine artist and he made a FORTUNE! He worked with many of the local interior designers and they did most of his work that way. He just painted and seldom had to sell. Deni, I have gotten into the habit of only watching the Thursday show live. My fav site usually has BB uploaded w/no commericals in under 2 hours from airing. I'd rather watch that way.

LOL. Guess I did post and didn't see it. To much BB live feeds I guess. Have had them for 4 days and I think I've overdosed already.

no so far he has sold privately and has done well that way.. he also sold almost all the stuff i had done so i don't have much left anymore.. we've put all the money away to buy a house if we ever find one we like.. not going there!.. at the moment we're just concentrating more on keeping our jobs..
