Where is it all going

Where is it all going - Nicole's stuff that is.  I get it.  As they say trying to cram 10 pounds of stuff into a 2 pound bag.  Yeah like trying to cram an apartment full of stuff - well at least what made it here in one piece but I will get to that in a minute - into one bedroom and bathroom.  While she is moving in and unpacking, I attempt to walk in her room only to find the door blocked with shoes stacked a half mile high.  Why don't you move these away from the door I ask, nicely enough.  Oh I have them organized she says.  Organized??? I can't walk in the darn bedroom without hitting them with the door.  And where is your dog's bed going to go in here, again I ask nicely enough.  I don't know I will figure it out, Nicole replies.  So one day while she is at work, knowing she is tired of unpacking and moving, I went in her room and moved those boxes away from the door.  Now you have to understand she probably has over 35 containers of shoes in there!  So I put all the sneakers on one side and all the shoes on another side.  Organized:). Nice:). Or so I thought!  Ha, she freaked out!  Why did you move my stuff?  I fixed it I told her.  Needless to say she did not look at it that way.  Was a little testy!  Even called her sister to complain.  I don't get it.  So allow me to digress just a minute about this moving thing.  First off she has me ship 17 boxes from Chicago to home.  I paid to ship those boxes.  Most of the boxes showed up completely beat up and busted.  I couldn't understand why until I looked in one box in the garage that had her kitchen appliances in it.  Yes just appliances . . . No bubble wrap around them, no packing paper around them, and not even a single piece of popcorn in the box to prevent the items from slamming against each other!  Just appliances in a box five sizes too big for its items.  So the box showed up with completely busted stuff.  Remind me again - why did I pay to ship those here??  I'm telling ya - what the hell was she thinking?  Did you really think those items would arrive in one piece?  I will tell you where this is going - in the trash.  And she freaks out at me?  Really?

  2. The funny part is that I can see her just "freaking out" all over the place LOL And I hate to say it but I stopped and got a little happy face when I understood I am not the only one with a shoe "issue" hehehe
