Truck is full

6.30.2007 — 7 Comments

Amazingly we’re actually relaxing right now. Yup. The truck is packed, the house is empty and clean, our deposit has been returned, and we’re relaxing in the Sweeny home. Ella’s napping, supper is nearly finished, and I’m about to pass out.

The 26-foot truck is slam-full. It’s a blast to drive, but very intimidating, too.

Big day tomorrow. My message is entitled, “Hear God.”

I am absolutely exhausted. This was a big day. We had incredible help!

D-Day

Momma Sweeny left after 10 last night after spending quite a few hours helping us “finish up”.

We still haven’t quite finished up, but before the wireless router goes in a box, I wanted to update the world.

Today will be quite historic. In just 50-minutes I will be heading to Penske to pick up a 26-footer and a tow-behind car-dollie. At 9AM, a motley crew will be arriving at our place to help us load all of our belongings into said truck. They will be disappointed when they realize that not everything is ready to be put on a truck…

Mom Garrett and Jess’ sister, Jaymie arrive in around 9, too, to spend a day helping keep this place sane. We will get the packing done. We will get the house-cleaning done. We will get settled in our 2-night home-away-from-home thanks to the Gastons. I will preach in both services tomorrow. We will laugh and cry at tomorrow night’s “toast ‘n roast” service. We will wake up refreshed Monday morning and head to Mukwonago with our stuff and unpack it with our new church family.

Moving is quite the experience.

I’m tired of it, already.

Dearest Comcast –
Please disregard my previous letter, unless you happened to have read it and after reading it decided to turn things back on for us.

Thanks for the cable and Internet that “magically” work again.

Sincerely yours,

Stevan Sheets

Dear Comcast Cable & High-Speed Internet Provider,

Thanks for being so prompt in shutting my service off. When I called you and let you know that I would be moving out of the state on Saturday, little did I know that you’d send a guy out within 24-hours to turn off my cable television (which my daughter loves, mind you) and my cable Internet (which makes the world go ’round, mind you).

Please be advised that I nearly let the air out of the tires of the truck that was sitting in my driveway during the “uninstall”, but I’ve got morals that kept me from doing such a thing.

Thanks for 5-years of uninterrupted service (and free Food Network for my wife!), but no-thanks for the quick “uninstall” this morning without warning!

Sincerely,

Stevan Sheets (via wireless net at the church)

PLEASE be true!

Thanks to my buddy, Ken, I have a renewed hope that all that I loved about mid 80’s television could return in silver-screen glory.

Please take note: if this indeed, is true, I will do all within my power to be at a midnight showing of this film on opening day!

imdb.com says that it’s a “work in progress”!!
