whew...well, I did manage to grab a breath somewhere and slow down some of the spin in my head, or maybe we are all just worn out. (the panicking eventually breaks down to exhaustion, you know?)
Some good suggestions, will add them to my notebook. We did find a truck rental that we got a good deal on between the internet and my AAA membership, but here in Indy they want a small fortune for others to shift the stuff into the van. (getting there his co workers will probably help unload, but loading is mainly going to be his father, whose health isn't great, and a brother in law) we live in a small, cluttered, cramped house..which actually I'll be glad to get out of...we got a deal on boxes too, as well as I'm scrounging them where I can.
The doctors and stuff...I'm having trouble even getting in contact with, much less assistance. I'm thinking I'm actually going to have to make an appointment with each of them (bloody hell, there are so many!) to get this done, and they all want a fee to copy my medical records. jerks. I'm going to interview doctors when I get there, as I am REALLY picky about my healthcare. Maybe I should make that really PUSHY about my healthcare. LOL. Anyway, I'm going to try and get three months worth of scrips on everything and mail in so that that won't be an issue while I hunt down someone in the new area, I stole the phonebook from the area when the company flew us there for a weekend so I could see it and meet the people so I've got a lot of places already picked out to call and talk to, and I've got MCI unlimited long distance free phone calling so I'm going to take advantage of it, it's just the phone has been non stop with real estate agents the last day or two, at least that has started. My biggest scare was having to go there and not really having anyplace set up yet, I didn't think my husband would be able to do it in the week he'll be there ahead of me...but we got approved for a mortage (which I couldn't believe, now if I can just get the downpayment out of my dad and we'll pay him back when we sell this dump) and we've looked at houses, and when he gets there he'll have it narrowed down to to or three we've lived from the internet, look them over, call me and tell me about them, and then get that in place...so that he can probably do in a week. I'm hoping. (my husband is a genius in many aspect but living in the real world is NOT one of them.)
Thanks for writing me back and the suggestions...thank you so much.
