Stort tack
... as they say in Sweden. Thank you very much! Ah, the Swedish. Such an amusing people.
Anyway, yes, THANK YOU. I want to publicly express my appreciation to my mother-in-law, who watched my children for an ENTIRE WEEK so that I could pack and plan this move. She is a lifesaver. Literally. There is no way King Pen and I could have done this on our own, and I don't just mean relocating. His parents have been a tremendous support to us while he was in school, and my gratitude knows no end! They are phenomenal people.
And to Aunt Vickie, Mike, and Nanny who had the U-haul unpacked by the time I got here, stort tack to you, too. It was a great help, and I want you to know how easy it made the transition into the new place. Thanks for giving up a Sunday for us.
And Brittbratt-- thank you for coming the next day to entertain my kids while I organized. They loved it, and I got a lot done because you were here distracting the masses. And Czarina loves the toe polish, by the way. Next time you come, I promise we'll hang out at the pool so you can check out the cute guys.
And to Aunt Janet, Papaw, and Mae, who swept in today for a few hours to check out the new place-- thank you for the goodies, and especially the chocolate cake for King Pen's birthday. I promise I'll save him a piece of it! Thank you for being so thoughtful.
There have been countless loved ones and friends who have stuffed money into my purse without me looking, or given in other anonymous ways ($500 from one such a person!) or paid for my gas or a car repair or something... and I don't even know how I could thank you properly. Thank you for being so generous.
Everybody--- goodness-- you've all done a lot for us, all of you. So many of you have come to my rescue over the years, gotten us out of this bind or that one, and I can't even begin to tell you how much that has meant. Now, finally, we are there, we're done, and it's in large part because of you. As things get situated, we hope to return those small favors, and big ones (though it may take longer on those) because we love you and want you to know we appreciated your help and support through the years.
Well, that's all for now. Just thinking today about the people who helped us get here, and wanted to acknowledge them. Have a good day, everybody!
