On Saturday, April 14, 2012 I was able to help Angi and Matt move to Missouri. Angi got a promotion to a first manager at a new Menards. It was a 7 and a 1/2 hour drive down there to Cape Girardeau, MO. I am thankful that there was plenty of help to unload their truck of stuff. Matt's parents help along with a friend of Angi's, Scott, Angi and Matt and myself. We got to spend the afternoon unloading the truck which I feel we did in a short period of time for the amount of stuff they have accumulated over the past year since they have been on their own.
I want to add that this trip was an accomplishment for myself. I am not usually the one doing the driving on long trips. This trip was a little over 400 miles and I was able to drive by myself with no help what so ever. Usually on long trips I am in the passenger seat doing what I do best....sleeping. The only passenger that was in my car on the way down to Cape Girardeau was Simba (Angi's cat). The drive home only took 6 hours. The boys (Matt and Scott) and I had a lot of fun and laughs on the way back. I look forward to driving down there to see Angi and Matt on a 3 day weekend. I haven't set up the next visit as Angi doesn't have a set schedule as of yet.
Well, this will be quite a growing up experience for Angi and Matt. By moving to another state and being on their own. I miss my Angi very much. Thank goodness for the internet and the telephone. I can still talk to her everyday.
