    The "unload Spazz party" takes form

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    OK grrls... here's the scoop this is it:

    The movers hit Spazz east coast dog house on Feb 4 to arrive west coast dog house somewhere between Feb10 - Feb16. The "unload party" may have to be flexible. My understanding is the truck arrives, parks, we have 4 hours to offload the contents while driver sleeps in the cab. As soon as we're done they head off to the next delivery.

    Editors note: as of right now I have the 17th off work, note to Spazz will the date get more specific as it gets closer?

    I work weekdays but once a date is established I could probably trade and have the day off easily enough.

    Spazz and Quids actual flight is out of Boston on Weds Feb 8.

    I live in Oakland very close to Piedmont Ave. and would be happy to help unload. I have the training ride on the 11th; but, as of now, the rest of the week is free. I don't work so weekdays are okay. Just let me know when the day is set.

    How is Spazz (where are you, my dear)getting here? Car, plane?

    Might be a last minute deal, so when closer just let me know so I can meet you somewhere for the food part!

    I have to arrange transportation from home, so I'll need a day's notice si vous plais!

    Bike Goddess asks

    "How is Spazz (where are you, my dear)getting here? Car, plane?"

    Spazzdog and Quidich dog (actual dog) fly in on the 8th. Arrangements are in place with a couple of her old running buddies for their ride from the airport to the apartment. So far looks like that's all taken care of.

    "Might be a last minute deal, so when closer just let me know so I can meet you somewhere for the food part! "

    So far it looks like the actual date and time she would have at least 24 hour notice. The truck drives across country and makes stops along the way so it's hard to pin down exactly at this point. Watch this space for further last minute details from Spazz. Or one could call or e-mail her if you wanna be notified.

    Sounds like one option is unload with however many or few are available for this form of cross training, pizza and beer...then hold a seperate party later on on a weekend.

    "I have to arrange transportation from home, so I'll need a day's notice si vous plais! "

    You shall have it!! She should get at least a day

    Hi grrls...

    I'm not going to be able to post a definite unload time until the truck guy calls me, abt 24 hr notice. So whoever can be available on 24 hr notice btn Feb 10-16, zip me a PM.

    Helga you're on... it might end up being just us unemployed folks (hope you're strong like a "Helga" should be )

    Should it end up hardly anyone can come, we'll post a date for a later "come see spazz's doghouse gathering", Like after I unpack, hang pictures, etc.

    I'm not online much right now, but Trek420 will post in my absence if there's any further news if I can't get to a pc.

    Thanks everyone!

    Gena

    Spazz & Quidditch may need a ride...

    My friends out there have a scheduling conflict and may not be able to pick me and the pooch up at SFO (SanFran Int'l).

    Is there anyone out there that has a 'mommy" van or SUV that could do an airport run on Feb 8th mid day? I will gladly pay tolls/gas, etc.

    If yes, please PM me. Quid will be crated in your vehicle so no doggie hair or post-flight accidents.

    Thanks grrls!

    Thanks to all the TE grrls

    I wanted to extend my gratitude to everyone on the forum... you've all been so kind and supportive from whatever state or country you call home.

    I want you to know it has helped and has provided a comfort for me during this difficult time.

    I look forward to meeting more of the CA gals (and whoever comes to visit) once I get settled in the new place and finally swing a leg over my zebra bike...

    Hugs from spazzdog (and a 'woof' and a lick from Quidditch)

    Transportation issue resolved

    My friend on the CA end resolved the scheduling conflict and is confirmed, so me and the pooch will be picked up at SFO.

    See y'all soon!

    Status report

    Good morning grrls!

    The moving truck containing everything I own left Massachusetts Saturday nite. The driver's initial estimation for arrival at my new place is Weds Feb 14th but he and I will be in contact once I get there on the 8th to stay updated.

    The definite thing (at this point) is he will arrive on a weekday not a weekend. I realize most folks work, thusly unload help may be difficult. If you, your husbands, boyfriends, grrlfriends,teenage sons/daughters, mules or other beasts of burden can be available on a weekday please PM me for address and updates.

    I'm going to really need the help...

    Thanks everybody! spazzdog

    The eagle has landed or uhm, the Spazzdog has landed. I just talked with her about her phone service and while we were talking the tech arrived. ::sigh:: she may be outa the internet loop for a bit. Since she would not be here yet when the modem arrived we (I say we because I work there) asked to have her modem and the install kit shipped to me, at work, I work for da' phone company. Should be easy to do, right? Nooooo, they shipped it to her home, no one there, sent it back...have to get the modem re-delivered. Sometimes I could just scream, but she's got dial tone!

    Hmmm, did BG say welcome to CA dinner below?
