UHaul

The thing about moving to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere North Dakota is that most places either don't have the capabilities or the location to make a move easy. For example, there isn't a UHaul location in Williston, the closest one is an hour away in Watford City. In some ways, using them was our only option. We went with renting UPods (much like PODS but owned by UHaul) instead of renting a moving truck primarily because of the weather. Packing was a pain in the ass, we barely got what we did get in there to fit, the rest went in our cars, and in our friend's pickup. Ultimately, we ended up here with our suitcases, boxes with some of our clothes, my work files, two patio chairs, and our spices. For the past the three weeks, that all we've had to work with. Our stuff was supposed to arrive here on the 21st, but when I called on the 22nd, it still hadn't left Colorado. Needless to say, I was furious. Christmas was great because we made it great, but I had all these plans to make it amazing and, at the very least, sleep in my own bed. Today is the 27th, and we STILL don't have our stuff. At this point, I doubt we will have it by New Years, and I have to say, that really upsets me. At this point we are getting a $50 a day refund for every day they are late, but honestly I don't want to pay for the delivery at all since they have been so unacceptably late and rude when dealing with us. However, I will wait to make a further ruckus until AFTER we have our things.

I miss my bed.
