Jared and I are going up to Idaho this weekend for his friends wedding and a Miller family reunion. And our schedule after that will be: work for two weeks, cruise for one week, work for 1/2 week, move to Utah, so we came up with the plan to take anything we dont need to live for basically 2 weeks and put it in our storage place in Idaho. Well, since Jared is working from sunrise to sundown, the lovely task of packing and organizing and stuffing things in the car has fallen on me. This morning I enlisted the help of one of the wives that lives right below me to assist in the moving and stuffing of our giant bean bag!This bean bag is 8 ft long!! It is giagantic!! Here is a picture of it to give you some persepctive.
This bean bag weighs 95-100 pounds and is huge and akward to carry, so we slid/pulled it down the stairs and to the car on a blanket. And after stuffing for a while, then we had the idea to document it. This is the bean bag, probably about half way in. Crazy I know! It looks like the car is pooping out something huge and blue!
And with more pushing and tugging and tucking, we were able to make some progress.
This was officially my work out for the month! I would have never guessed, but every single muscle in my body can push, and can be sore from pushing!
In this picture I like the blanket just chillin there. We used it to lay down and push with our legs. We even brought one of our folding chairs our to use. This thing is crazy stubborn!
After and hour and a half of pushing and pulling and tucking this is how close we got! We were all out of energy and ideas on how to get the trunk to close all the way!!So we walked over to the apartment office to see if they had some twin or something we could use to tie it down, but to no avail!
When we got back I had a renewed determination!! And my a true miracle we got the trunk closed!!!! Oh I was soooo elated!!! And not 10 seconds after it closed there was this huge thunder clap, and a storm started coming! It was a great modern miracle of bean bags!! And no, my plan did not work out entirey, fo I wanted the bean bag to be soely in the trunk and fill the back seat with tubs and such, but I will take what I can get!
At least the trunk is closed and our bean bag is in the car!! I have packed other things, but the boxes are too heavy and big for be to carry out alone, and it is pouring rain, so that adventure will be saved for later tonight! But for now, I will just relish in the triumph over the bean bag!!!
