After staying up until 4:30 am, we closed on the house at 9:00 am on a Wednesday in July. With all of the legal documents signed and now officially homeless, we arrived at our son and daughter-in-law’s house for a much needed nap. After we recovered from the final push to vacate the house, we hit the road to finish the task of storing our belongings.
When we bought the truck in Texas, we didn’t realize how much we were going to need it. Thankfully, God knew and He provided the truck for us. We had two trailers full of stuff that we needed to get to North Central Kansas. If we only had the Suburban, two trips would have been required. As it was, we were able to get both trailers there at the same time. While we looked a little like the Beverly Hillbillies (with ladders, an elliptical, and a refrigerator anchoring the trailer), our trip to Kansas was uneventful and we were able to store all of our items, including the trailers.
We are so grateful for family members who made room for our overflow items!Â
Lesson Learned:Â Even after paring down our belongings, we still have way too much stuff!Â
