I learned something...today...
A valuable... lesson....
Sometimes.... The More you give... the more people expect...
I had run my butt off...this morn....{Mom's business... bills...ect...} then knew...I had to unload the Huge Pass Through Cupboard...for Gold Rush....and...get another...heavy Dawg...out of the back green house....{it took 3 of us...to get in...} and...remove the back of the green house...in order to get the Pass Through inside.... {it's 36 inches deep...5 feet wide.... and...Big...All Over...}
Eyes watched me struggle....but never offered to help....
in fact...they went out of their way...to avoid helping...
Ya know...I do...an awful lot....for those...eyes...and pay them...very well...
Those days...are over....
I moved everything...by myself....
and...I'll never ask...for their help...again...
and... they...can do the same... I'll help them....just...as they helped me...today....
I ain't askin' nobody...for nothin'...if I can't get it on my own...
and...I can...get it...on my own....
and...did...
 |
| This is the Massive Top...for the Pass Through... I slid it out of the FUSO... and carted it...on a 2 wheeled Dolley... then...Woman Handled...it.... |
 |
| The base...was tricky... I had to wheel it down... then find something as tall as a steel post....in the doorway...{24 inches....or so....the post would have gashed the top of the cupboard...without it...} I found a little table... threw a rug over it...flipped the Massive Base...on it's top...and slid it through..the tight doorway....I prayed the little table...could hold the weight...{at least...300 pounds... } it did...until the very end...then...the poor little legs...let go....but thankfully...held long enough....to get the cupboard...inside....Bless it's little Heart...} |
I'm angry... and hurt...
but...mostly....done...
I break...my back...to keep Everyone.... alive....
I'm done...
Love to Ya...

They can leave...this long haired...country girl...alone.....
{ I will have to admit...I asked the Lord...for Help...with this One.... I Prayed...before I tackled It... I have seen Big Men...Buckle... and Bow...to This Dawg... But... The Angels...and I... we... made it happen...so...I do ask...Someone...for Somethings...and...He Never...Lets Me Down! The Load...was Light...and Swift...}

That was one big piece. Glad you got it moved okay.
My motto is "you do what you have to do until you don't have to do it anymore". You go girl!
When I woke up...this morn... I wondered... am I going to be able to move??? {I did a lot of body slammin' with the cupboard that was in the greenhouse...} but... I am fine.... Those Angels.... are Great...when ya ask 'em for a little HELP!!!
Love to Ya!
Hey Jan...
I gotta tell ya...
I was pretty sad...yesterday...
These Boys...would help a Stranger... they are Good Boys...
The problem is me... and my junk...
That's how they concider it... and want no part of it... {Even tho...I pay them.... a dollar a minute... to help... never less than 15. each...to help move a big piece...} That's more...than I have ever made...in my life... I pay them more...than any of my Porters... in Nashville... What they don't understand.. is this old junk...and that tiny shop...carries the entire load...here... This morning... I'm going to have a chat with them... they can start helping out....with that load....and... I'll keep... keepin' on...with the Help..of the Angels... Love to Ya...Jan...

And...Jan...
I don't ask them...very often... maybe...once a week...at best... and..for a few pieces... that I have ready for them to grab...and go... I know... they don't like messing with this stuff... so I make it as easy on 'em...as I can...
but...no worries...
They won't have to worry about it...again...
Bless Their Hearts!
Love to ya!
