So, our movers are still not here. We moved here in the beginning of July, we gave them our new address by mid July and here we sit, into September and still no possessions. Granted, I should be grateful for what we have, but I miss our stuff. I miss our dishes. We had to buy a pot and a pan, dishes, cups, a table and chairs to eat on. We had to buy a couch for the living room (though that isn't on the movers.) But we've had to buy stuff. To replace the day to day stuff. Measuring cups, cutting boards, silverware, blankets and pillows, baking dishes, and mugs. I know that there are people worse off than we are. And I get how lucky we are to have the money to replace all of this stuff. But, it's mentally and emotionally exhausting to be constantly waiting for our stuff. At long last, on Tuesday the company told us that our stuff is in the next state and would be coming in the next couple of days. We still haven't heard from them. I'm just so sad and worried. Most of the stuff is replaceable (Although I would hate to have to do that.) But the cedar chest that has been in my family for 3 generations now and all of the mementos from my late mother... those I can't replace.
Quite honestly, my anxiety has been skyrocketing lately mostly due to the movers. I just want my stuff. But when I call, they act like I am being ridiculous. I'm just tired of the lying and the delays. I just want my stuff. If they've lost my stuff, I want to know it so that I can take the appropriate actions. But mostly, I just want a simple phone call to let me know what is going on. I want someone to care that we've been living in this house for almost 2 full months with only the stuff that we brought with us and the necessities that we've replaced.
This move has been our worst. If I didn't love it here so much, I may have moved back already.
