Snowed!
On Friday two weeks ago, the day of the great hurricane, we moved into our house. Moved just our furniture and all the things that were in the Bamberg apartment. We ourselves were living during the move in our cozy little beach house. Bamberger Moving the reliable forwarding has cleared our apartment in Bamberg, without that we had to be there. On Tuesday afternoon, 17 against clock we got the news that the flat had been sealed empty and clean. All our belongings were packed in the moving van, which was now before the long trip north. On Wednesday it rained as bad as not long, and on the weekly market Burger told someone that the motorway A7 a full closure would have. So we did not expect at all so early with the van. I calmly walked into the practice of our new family doctor in the, I could already give some information about Hans Christian disease. He promised to come in the next week to our home.
short 14 clock came the call that the moving truck would arrive already in an hour. I waited with bated breath in front of our house, the rain had stopped now thankfully. As was already approached the moving van through the narrow road - but oh dear - where was the trailer? All our belongings in one car? Before I could ask, the second largest moving truck came from the other direction - five gay men jumped out of the cabins. After a warm welcome - the company had carried out our last move - it went straight to the point. They visited the house and read my furniture assembly plan, to know what was where. Then it went off.
I drove back to South Beach, the beach avenue was in those days, almost to the "race track" - as Hans Christian has always waited on me. But he caught it well, even at night when I went again to the house to bring men to move pizza - which you could eat while standing and without plates and cutlery. It was really comfortable in our beautiful house, it was heard music, I would gladly have stayed there. The moving people lived in the house, they had Brought sleeping bags, plenty of beer was also available, and for breakfast I had taken precautions. It was probably a fun party, because the next day I had to order another beer ...
Nevertheless, the men at dawn on Thursday already up and worked hard when I came there for 7:30. At 7 clock I already got a call from the furniture business that our new upholstered couch was delivered in half an hour. The weather was beautiful and everything went smoothly. But suddenly there was a problem: Our beautiful old desk did not go up the stairs. You could not break it, he was still solid ... So I had to let go abruptly, with a heavy heart! As I had but after the months in the apartment looking forward to again have a large desk. Now we will probably have to find a new ...
The carpenter came, and by the head of the procession were instructed troops. The shelves were placed in the carpentry and have already changed at noon, so that was a big part of the books are classified.
noon, we watched as suddenly drew upon the sky and the sea became restless. A violent storm arose. Afternoon I went again to our house and arrived just in time to see how our wing has been constructed. Also, the neighbor boy was there, he was so excited on the wing. The was a solemn moment, and the movers asked me to play something on the "greeting" in the new house. I played the Impromptu in A flat major, Op 142 / 2 by Franz Schubert. The audience were very quiet and beautiful music filled the very first time our new house.
night the storm raged more and more, and pressed against the windows of our beach house, there was even water through the balcony door. It was a little scary, and we stayed on for long. That was the last night here because we wanted to be tomorrow in the new house and collection to celebrate. The stair lift would have to be mounted. My girlfriend wanted to come, to assist us in collecting. Hopefully the Fehmarn bridge would be free, for the return of the van!
awakened about half past five I, Hans Christian because it was not well. He made strange noises, chills, had the whole bed was wet with sweat. I did not advice and called the emergency services. The ambulance arrived with the team for the ambulance, but he then left. Such a ambulance do not know what to there. He could only bring to the hospital, but we did not want. I then calmed Hans Christian and warmed and restored him to bed. I suspect he had a cold, and then the excitement of the storm - also the last evening in the small apartment.
I wanted to get up at 7 and then to the house - but what to do with Hans Christian? He was still restless, but I could not leave him alone. I called our therapist, who tapped an infection and advised me to call the nursing service. She would come to treat him, they promised me. Fortunately, on Tuesday was a sister already been there from the nursing service, mandatory counseling. I called and they sent me a woman who stayed with Hans Christian. So I was a little later to the house where lamps and curtain rods should be installed. The movers broke up then, even though the bridge was closed for empty trucks. It then has to wait in a parking lot until you can drive over.
When my friend finally arrived, she was amazed that almost everything was already granted. Also, the mechanic for the stair lift came, and so we went to the apartment around noon. The storm was fierce and it was pouring. Hans Christian had slept and my girlfriend stayed with him. Two hours later I came back from the house - many roads were already under water and I would definitely go back even in the light of the house. We adapted from a quiet moment and went to Hans Christian in his wheelchair car. We nearly been blown off. I was glad that my girlfriend was there, they calmed us both. So we were well and dry on the house.
Later came the movers back because the bridge had not been opened. The hurricane was worse and the fields behind the house were under water.
But then we have happily celebrated river. Our friends came Fehmarn and the neighbors: The family of obligations with the son and daughter and the old lady next door. The movers set the table - they always knew where everything was. I had bought Mett, sausage and baguette bread, drinks were enough there, and so it was a happy evening in a large group. The children experimented with joy from the stair lift, the guests looked at the house and were amazed at our many books. Late in the evening drove Hans Christian, who had mitgefeiert happy, for the first time with his stair lift to the top.
It is said that one should remember that what you dream the first night in the new home. I have slept so soundly, that I can not think of a dream. The move added at 7 clock in the morning left the house, we have not heard them. They are then safely arrived in Bamberg, I still cried on the move and thanked him for the great evening. My friend, Hans Christian and I slept a long time and then enjoyed the very first breakfast in the new house.
This was the twelfth and last beach avenue blog. There are of course many more stories to tell, but I'll do later in my new book of Fehmarn with the working title: "beach avenue - a way to happiness".
I am most grateful to all my loyal readers, especially when the dear friends who have helped us with their comments in this very exciting time. For it takes not even a pleasure to - we stood at the top of the goal of health, followed by peace and quiet. We will hopefully find here on our beloved island. On South Beach, we will continue to take a vacation, it's now no longer go that far.
I thank you all for the many cards, calls, emails, PMs, guest book entries, exhortations and encouragements, the beautiful gifts and the active support during our collection in Neujellingsdorf! I will thank me or individually for each.
Now I wish you a blessed Advent.
