The Move Continued...

   Friday morning we all slept in. Doug left during the late part of the morning to run some errands and then meet up with Ken who was going to help him finish the trailer. My sis-in-law Mary and her adorable little son Austin (who is just 3 months younger than Jubilee) came to spend some time with Jubilee and I. Do you remember how the jeep was so packed we could not fit another shoe in? Yes? Well guess where all my clean clothes were? Not on top. So between a trip to wall-mart, and a dig through a friends "goodwill bag" and another friends "goodwill bag" I was able to get a fresh outfit. Mary and I ran around and did some shopping. Aldi has awesome carts with two seats. :-D 

I also spent some time with Rachel but I won't bore you with just everywhere that I ran back and forth to and from. throughout the day I'd call the guys and they would be "almost finished with about an hour more of work" and an hour and a half later I'd call them up and they would say "it was going well until..." "we have about an hour left and we'll be finished" they kept running into one problem after another. Finally around 9:30 P.M. (if I remember rightly.) I was back at Jo and Emily's house when the guys walked in. They said they were almost finished the the bolts were the wrong size and as all the stores were closed for the night we would have to wait until the next day.

So...we stayed one more night.

Jubilee did not sleep more than 20 minutes at a time for most of the night.

Which means

Mom did not sleep for more than 10 minutes at a time for most of the night.

At least it felt that way.

About 7:00 in the morning I finally texted my dear friend Rachel. She came and picked up Jubilee. I went to sleep. 

Ben came to help (I think he was involved the day before also.) He and Doug left. I kept sleeping.

I slept until 1 in the afternoon :-D After a much needed shower and some breakfast Joyce, Emily, Esther (Ben's wife) and I went to get Jubilee. Sweet Rachel had taken her shopping and bought her a brand new outfit, Pajamas, and boots, given her a bath and got her all cleaned up for the trip. Up to that point poor Jubilee had been wearing the same pajamas that I had put on her Thursday evening when we were going to leave. (Note for next time...always pack extra clothes in an accessible place.)

FINALLY at about 7:30 p.m. the trailer was nice as new finished and ready to roll. We ate some pizza and cheesecake. said goodbye (for the 3rd time!) and  at 8:25 we were on our way.

Goodbye Wisconsin.
