Gotta show my love to the Bulls! Two days ago I moved into my apt. and if it wasn't for my Taurus cousin volunteering to help my furniture would probably still be in storage. Everything I needed was at the back of the storage. When my mother lifted the storage it was stacked to the top with boxes. My first thought was *heck no I didn't think us four females(me, my mother,sister, and cousin) would be able to pull it off. My mother did a "let's get to work" laugh and my cousin came up with a plan. The whole time I'm moving boxes and thinking *we cannot do this* because it was getting more difficult as the dressers, televisions, mattresses, chairs, couches etc was towards the back and it All was stacked to the ceiling, not to mention it was atleast 100 degrees outside. The harder it got, the more my cousin formulated a plan to get things out of the storage and on to the truck. None of us could take the heat any longer so I asked my sis to go and get us all something to drink. As soon as she left we started moving things again and we got to a heavy dresser that started to fall. So im helping my mother and cousin push the dresser up and notice the television is what's making it fall so I grab the TV and try to lift it but can't because something else fell behind it. All three of us were in there screaming cause it all was falling on us and we were all loosing grip. We just had to let it fall, and we all ended up with a few scars and bruises. At some point we finished our first load and headed to the house. A mattress was on that first load, so my mother is driving as slow as possible. We look back and notice the mattress is extremely wobbly. At that point I stop looking back and all of a sudden they . Itstart screaming. The darn mattress done flew off the truck on the highway lol. We stopped and my cousin was begging to go get it off the highway. My mother was yelling "girl nlooo!" So we kept on and prayed that nobody got hurt. After we finished loading we headed back for two more loads. It took us about 4hrs to finish and besides that one incident we did darn good. My Taurus cousin was the one behind it happening, AND she wasn't looking for nothing. My respect for her and Bulls in general went through the roof. If it was up to me I would have stopped a long time ago and paid someone(money I don't have) to do it. |
