Kolek planning to go pro
We were actually smaller than St. Louis at the time of the fire. Edit: went to fact check myself and found out we were in fact slightly larger. I swear I was taught otherwise.
Actually, Chicago's rapid growth in population in the late 19th century was primarily due to its annexation of nearby towns, including Hyde Park, Rogers Park, Lakeview, and Jefferson. It was a very Chicago way of accomplishing a goal.
Down 1 w 5 seconds left. Doable.
As IL taxpayers, can we all agree to give the sign language guy a raise?Seriously, his expressions are great. He takes his job seriously and the passion comes out.(Of course, I hope that he is actually a legitimate interpreter and not "speaking" gibberish a la Obama's.)
I'm not sure if you know it or not, but Mandela was from South Africa. When Obama gave the speech, that was the interpreter that was provided. He was not Obama's interpreter. I realize it is Trump's "job" to dodge all responsibility and blame Obama. It's embarrassing that you do the same.
Reeeeeeeelax.I guess this is where we're at in America: any mention of any politician whatsoever--even in the context of some levity--sends out a call to arms.
Illinois moving to "Lockdown," but really shelter in place. Grocery stores, pharmacies, plumbers, electicians, roads and highways, banks, etc. to remain open. Hopefully movers too....LOLNational guard being activated, but says these are NOT used for quarantine enforcement but are mostly medical professionals and others for testing. https://www.chicagotribune.com/coronavirus/ct-coronavirus-illinois-shelter-in-place-lockdown-order-20200320-teedakbfw5gvdgmnaxlel54hau-story.html
Coleman, closings are still on with the shelter-in-place order. Title companies are considered financial institutions, banks are open also, and lawyers are able to continue to work when we represent “essential services”. Movers are also going to be able to be open. The closing process is changed some, with fewer people allowed at the actual closing, but closings are still occurring.
We are almost in the exact same boat as Coleman. Our buyers close on their place on April 23, while the close on our place is May 1.What complicates our situation is that after 30 years of living in this house and moving to a place only half of its size, we have a crap ton of stuff we need to get rid of. We have an estate sale scheduled for the end of April. I am not sure what would happen if we can't empty out the house on time.
Worst case could be a Pods or MiBox, perhaps? Moving companies are essential services.
Chick, as of now, my plan is: -send the wife, baby, and dog to the in-laws a couple days before the move. -have packers come the day before the move (we have been trying to pack, but we just aren't going to be able to do it alone with an infant)-have movers take everything into storage-meet up with the family, and hang out there until we are ready to move into the houseI'd definitely look into the storage route for movers. Could you do an estate sale later on?
Doubtful. I am pretty sure those storage places have rules about that.It's not about the money we would make on the sale; I just don't want a lot of perfectly good furniture and other stuff winding up in a landfill. We are supposed to be broom-clean on May 1. Thinking about seeing if I can schedule a Salvation Army pickup just in case.
What do you have? PM me details. I am going to be filling a new house in 2 months...
We have donated furniture to the local Habitat REstore. They either sell the items or use them to furnish the houses they build.
