    I agree with everybody who said get your own pictures as they get it off the truck, try to get the truck or movers in as many shots as you can. Document everything!!! They may have missed something when they took their own pictures or not noticed scratches that weren't there before.

    You sure didn't need this on top of everything else. I just can't believe this! I am so sorry this has happened to you.

    Good grief! Ditto on taking pictures as they bring things in. Keep a list, too. We found that the movers broke a table & hid it by stacking other boxes on top of it, but we were storing those things & didn't find the damage for several months.

    I didnīt take my camera but will so tomorrow as I unpack everything... they gave me till monday so i could unpack and check all electronics.. they did took pics of what was obviously damaged..(both my parents were there as well as my bro and my BILīs gf and her stepdad, the insurance guy and 4 of the movers)

    two of the bedrooms were shattered... only my kidīs bunkbeds made it safe.. one complete set of couches were broken (two sets each of 3 pieces)... the dining room... the washer and stove... one T.V. just not sure which one.. will have to check em all (3) one is a plasma.. and a couple boxes were also bumped but were labeled as shoes or clothes or kitchen stuff.. but will check em too..

    fortunately the bunnies made it safely.. got a lil shaked but no damage.. now they are safe ..

    basically all big appliances were damaged.. except dryer, fridge and microwave..

    Iīll need to check the home theatre, videogames and a couple wine bottles and see if any survived... so hopefully thatīs all.. and hopefully we get it settled soon with the insurance company.. they said they want to settle soon without too much hassle...

    amazingly I had a 3 foot glass vase.. and it came intact

    I so want all this to be over!!... have I been so bad in life?.. I donīt think so.. but why is all this happening?.. :ī(... just too much.. too much..

    Isabel - enough is enough!!

    In a year or so you won't even remember what it was that was broken - except that it was a lot of your things.

    My prayers continue for you dear lady!

    Just take good care of you!

    the furniture damaged can be replaced.. and itīs not like i need it right now.. but it sure is annoying have this happen on top of all that has...

    as they were unloading the stuff all I could think was "where are the bunnies?"... they are doing great.. thankfully

    I really was upset to be going through his too.. especially seeing the stuff we first bought when we got married.. the first pieces that came to our home.. it made me sad seeing them also broken to pieces just as my heart... but Iīd give and break anything and everything left if I could have my hubby back... without a doubt...

    thank you for being here reading my whirlwind of situation... thank you for your support.. I might seem strong but I kid you not.. Iīm as strong as it might seem.. itīs just the things that keep happening just wonīt let me break.. I canīt break.. not yet..

    they say God doesnīt give you what you canīt handle.. I think Iīve got my share.. not sure how much more weight I can carry on..

    You can carry more than you think.

    Stop and think about one good thing for every bad thing that happens, trade a moment that tests you for a moment that makes you smile.

    You have two little ones that need your guidance, love and ability to 'keep it together'. You need them to carry on too!

    I hurt my back two days ago lifting and moving stuff-I think I have taken on more weight than I could carry. I don't blame god, I blame myself for trying to be 'god' by working over my head. There are moments in life when we encounter something truly terrible and we try to rise above it. At times it's better to gradually meet it head on-it does not help to stand on a chair to be 'bigger' than the problem, you just make yourself more vulnerable to a fall.

    Take a deep breath and remember something - that the people here on the site are the greatest people on the planet, This I do know. I have been able to rest on their thoughts, prayers and good intentions.

    We are all here for you and your children.

    You're not alone, Isabel, your PT friends are, and always will, be here for you. What you've been through these past weeks is a lot for anyone but you have faced it all with extraordinary courage and dignity! Your children are blessed to have such a strong Mom to look up to. I respect you for that.

    Don't ever hesitate to post in when the going gets tough. We may not have the answers but we will listen.

    Many prayers continue for you and your precious children. I've put you and the children on our prayer list at my church, I hope you don't mind.

    Many comforting [[[[[HUGS]]]]] to you and your kids!
    FIND A PURPOSE IN LIFE.....BE A BAD EXAMPLE
