Last Thursday was our BIG moving day at the Kleins... It had to be Thursday because right outside of our place has alternate side parking on Thursday thus we could park our big budget truck right in front packed until the next day when Dave can drive it up to CT...at least we thought we could, but when Dave went out to start loading the truck the next morning we had a lovely orange present from the city of New York waiting for us...a ticket for parking a commercial vehicle on a city street between the hours of 9pm and 6am...lovely!!!
デイブの元生徒がたくさん手伝いに来てくれることになっていたから、荷物も早く運び終わると思っていたんだけど友達を連れてきてくれると期待していた生徒が急遽面接のために来れなくなってしまっても～ぜんぜん計画どおりじゃないじゃん！ちょうど１０時３０分にトラックを持ってきた時に今日大活躍をすることになるリオンとクリスの到着...本当にこの二人無しでは出来なかったですこの引越し...仕事中に怪我をしたクリスはマディソンのお子守りの担当と外に置いておいた”何でも無料”テーブル係り...作業をはじめてすぐにマディソンはバガブーでお昼ね開始、長～い間寝てくれたからみんな大助かり。私がまだ残っている荷造りを終わらせている間、リオンはトラックを隅から隅までしっかり荷物を積み上げてくれて、勿論デイブは家の中にあった荷物ほとんどを自分一人で運び出してくれました。外でお昼休憩を取った後３時に娘のザリアを迎えに行かなきゃいけないからクリス達とはお別れをしました。
We were confident we could get the move done quick since Dave was able to recruit some of his alumni kids to come help us move, it was a brilliant idea, but one which had a potential for bringing more kids could not come since he found out he may need to go to a job interview... Oh oh... not feeling so confident now! Well we went to get the truck at 10ish and pulled up to our street to park at 10:30am just when Leon and Chris drove up to our rescue! Wow we could not have done it without them... Chris hurt her wrist while at her job, so she got to be in charge of playing with Madison and tending our "Everything Free" things we left outside sale... Madison fell asleep in her bugaboo soon after we started to pack the truck and stayed asleep a long time so that was a huge plus! Leon did such a great job packing the truck so tight and Dave was amazing basically carrying all the boxes out of the apartment while I kept packing more things in boxes... We had lunch outside and it was time for Leon and Chris to head back so they can go pick up Zaria(her daughter) from school at 3.
マディソンが起きた後はやっぱりあんまり捗らなかったんだけどそこにマニｰの登場...残っていた荷物をデイブと運んでくれたりマディソンと私が寝ちゃった後も一生懸命いろんな手伝いをしてくれました！
After Madison woke up it was really hard to get a lot of things done as she was whiny/cranky the entire time but Manny showed up after a long train ride to help us... He helped Dave load up more things into the truck and they kept on working long after Madison and I fell asleep in the basement!
