I'm moving to Boulder, CO -- TOMORROW!!!

OMG the day is here! I'm moving from FL to CO tomorrow! I was in a car accident last week, which pretty much totalled my Toyota Tacoma, so I'm renting a Uhaul truck (instead of the trailer I originally reserved), loading in my two senior cats into the cab with me, and driving 2000 miles by myself. Wish me luck! I am still pretty banged up from the accident, but I have pain meds that don't make me drowsy. Pretty much my entire left side was injured -- ankle, hip, shoulder and front of my neck. My back is OK.

Today is my last day at work, so I'm cutting it a bit close. I just hope the guy who said was going to help me load this truck shows up tomorrow.

Peace,
Bella

2. Good Luck!

That is exciting. I hope you have a great new life after the troubles you've had lately.

Will you re-name yourself RadFemCO? Guess we won't be seeing you if we ever have another S. Fl meetup again!

6. RadFemCO?

I think that sounds like some sleazy as-seen-on-tv infomercial, don't you? LOL I'll probably just change it to RadFem.

5. Good luck sweetie!

I'd do anything to be moving anywhere more liberal than here. Boulder sounds like heaven. Expensive, but heaven!

Take care, and let us know how everything goes!

10. Boulder is gorgeous!

I like the restaurant "The Med." It gets crowded, but I love that kind of food (tapas, etc.) so much. Good luck w/ your move.

12. Thanks for the concern!

Yes, I have a cel phone and car charger for it, and people are expecting me there. I won't be driving straight through, I will be stopping in motels and at friends/family along the way. Just picked up the uhaul truck, so I better start loading it!

If you'd like 2 more senior cats to keep you company, I'm looking to move a couple out - out west, out anywhere.
