July 5, the movers came to pack our UG. You know, the shippment that goes on a cargo flight. I was so excited. It was our first shipment to Germany. It made it all seem real, that we will be living in another county for awhile. The movers were very nice and polite but a word of caution: it is true that you must keep your eye on everything they pack and write on your paperwork. DON’T SIGN UNTIL YOU ARE SURE. They will try hard to get you to sign at the end without reading or really looking at what they have written. Make sure your “high-value list is complete. Be sure each box is clearly marked with what was packed. Don’t let the packers tell you how they will pack your stuff, it is yours and at the end you will have to live with your lack of care. I made a time speed-up of the move.
