After a week...
The packing & cleaning process seemed never ending. Many of our friends helped at the last minute, some stayed overnight. Without their help, we wouldn't have made it. Packers & movers helped shifting the packages to the new home. After everything was over, again we travelled 5 hours with our 5 members crew ( :-D ) in the snow storm on that day without a single break. It became evening when we reached the place. Exactly when we were about to take a turn inside the apartment entrance the car skidded & moved towards the other street. Since we couldn't take a reverse turn due to the vehicles behind, we thought of taking a 'U' turn from the next street. There was only half an hour remaining for closing the leasing office & to sign the lease. But when we went to the adjacent street, we got stuck in the snow for one hour) ;-). Kavya & Oviya were cranky & crying, it was snowing heavily outside, there was nobody outside to help, a woman from a nearby home kept watching us now & then from her window ( looked like she was annoyed by our car standing there for a long time ). This looked like a thriller movie except that we were the victims in real time :-). Then, determined Yuvi took a roaring turn to get the tire out of snow, but the leasing office was closed by then & we had to stay in the nearby hotel that night. Since we finalized this apartment & gave the advance amount earlier, we came to sign the lease only the next day.
We were lucky that on the very first day our neighbors gave some food :-). For a month it was tough to organize the things & to make Kavya & Oviya get settled after sickness. Even Snowy was sad initially. Slowly everything was getting better & we even got some good neighbours. And finally it was time to shave Yuvi's beard too after a month. He was trying a new style which looked horrifying :-D.
I'll look back on this & 'Smile' because it was 'Life' & we decided to live it :-).
