I am sure most of you can relate to the stress of moving across states. Most everything has gone smoothly so far, until this weekend that is. I ordered Brady’s birthday present online and it was scheduled to get here on Friday. Last week I received the tracking information and so I got online to track the package. I noticed that it had Murray, UT as the destination address. I immediately contacted the sender and asked why they had sent it there since I no longer lived there. Their response was that they go off of the address they had on the account from last time you ordered. Apparently they do not care what address you put in as your “mailing address” they just go off the account. They seem to think I should have deleted the address previously on the account (I didn’t even know I had an account by the way). They told me that I should contact someone in Utah and have them send it to me…as if I know someone to do that for me. So, I tried to call UPS. The were very understanding and said that on Friday after my old apt denied receipt of the package then I should call them back and they will re-direct it. Easy enough, right? WRONG! The apartment complex accepted my package. I haven’t lived there for 2 months now, and they accepted it! I called to speak with the manager of the apartment and she does not seem to think it is her responsibility to check if the resident lives there. WHAT? Isn’t it illegal to accept someone else’s mail for them? On top of that, they won’t mail it to me until they receive a money order for the price of the shipping to send it to me. As if it is my fault they accepted it. So needless to say they still have my package and today is Brady’s birthday. I am not even sure when it will reach us but hey, it’s the thought that counts, right?
Other than that, everything is pretty much going well. We are still set to move into our apartment on Saturday, and I am looking forward to having such nice management!! The experience has already been great, and we sure need a good one after the awful complex we lived in before.
Tonight we are going out for Brady’s birthday. We are going to Johnny Rebs, a Southern food place. It has great barbecued ribs, probably not as good as Amy’s dads, but they are pretty good. We will take some pictures and try to post some this week!

Wait, Amy's dad as in mine and Brady's dad? Or Amy T/Jensen's dad? I'm confused?!
Either way, happy birthday Brady! Sorry we forgot to call. We love ya!
Sorry....I meant Amy T's dad. He makes smoked ribs and they are very hard to beat.=) I can't say I have ever had ribs from your dad.
Sweet, more fun, not serious stuff.Check out my new blog, and try to figure out who bob is.
