That was a really long and exhausting weekend. I will summarize by each day what went on:

Friday
The previous day the equipment for the MUG server showed up and got installed. Friday was configuring and moving stuff over. A few server hiccups happened as well that day at work. I also delivered my computer to be repaired for hard drive clicking. After work I worked at cleaning Gaila's apartment while she was working. Neither of her roommates were around as they had moved weeks before. Also, her apartment was near some rail road tracks which had the side effect of making the walls really dirty.

Saturday
Continued cleaning and packing Gaila's apartment (Sunday afternoon carpet cleaners were coming in). Gaila's dad's car broke down, but he was able to bring his truck without much delay for loading furniture. Took the truck to parking lot at my place and got a tarp to protect the contents for the night (or two). Gaila loans her car to her dad so he has something to drive while we have Gaila's stuff stored in it. Gaila and I returned to her apartment with my parent's van for moving the rest of the smaller stuff, but didn't get started because Gaila's car crapped out and we had to give her dad a ride back to Boone. Crashed at home while Colin was packing with Meri's help (thanks Meri).

Sunday
Returned to Gaila's apartment to finish packing, and clean the apartment. Got things all vaccumed and cleaned. One of Gaila's more dependable roommates showed up to clean the kitchen while Galia was at work and I ran around town finding stove-top drip plates and patching paster for holes (ACE Hardware is a good place to find supplies for moving). Things finished up and we headed over to my apartment where Colin was moving across the parking lot, and we helped.

Monday
Gaila met with the management company for final inspection in the morning while I cleaned up messes left behind from Colin's move out and arrange furniture so that we had space to put stuff. Gaila also delivered food to her mom's place for her other job in Roland. We then helped some one move into their ground floor apartment so they could move their truck in exchange for their help unloading our truck. We took some time to arrange stuff in the apartment to get more room. We then got help taking the old couch out to be delivered to someone else. After getting back we helped the people who helped us take the couch out move into their apartment (turns out this person was moving in with the first person we helped), they also helped move stuff from the van. We returned the van, took showers and have a wonderful meal at Cafe Northwest because we deserved a treat for the long weekend.

Things still need to be sorted out and arranged inside the apartment, plus laundry needs to be done. To top it off, Colin and I will be leaving Saturday morning for WWDC.

Anyway, that was my weekend.
