If you have teenage daughters...

I recommend you buy a used U-haul truck and keep it for a few years. I just got back from helping move the oldest daughter, again. All told, I bet I've helped move the three of them 20 times in the last 15 years. I should have bought one of those box trucks back in the mid 90's.
Oh, yeah. The boyfriends and husbands always seem to have to be out of town when the move takes place. Today was the first time I can remember moving that the husband was there to help.
My father in law says the old timers used to say "Three moves equals a burn-out".

    Tell her to get her own damn U-Haul. She's married. She should be able to handle moving on her own.

    Shouldn't it be spelled "piece?"

    If I had a number of teenage daughters I would be drinking something stronger than beer!
    It's too late for me, save yourself.

    So true
    my oldest must have moved 6 times and once was back in here.
    Had been out of here for 5 years.
    Just moved again last week.
    Not that rent comes du and got to go. She lets the relator blow smoke about rent to own and then the seller opts out.

    again the one she is in now is another (ill sell it to you next year type deal) but (KIDS)they know it all and wont get any paper work done up saying this.

    OH WELL 1 OUT 2 TO GO

    My parents helped me move 6 times between ages 20 - 30. I think age 30 should be the cutoff. If you can't afford to hire a moving company by age 30 then you don't deserve to be helped.

    My oldest has perfected the art of living out of "piles"....when it comes time to move all I need is a window and a shovel.
