Move In Day

Today was the big day.  I expected chaos.  While there was some construction that was problematic and a bit of communication challenges, overall the process was smooth.  Really.  For a huge school,  this was methodical.  They had the sidewalks open for cars.  They had you park in front of the dorm.  They had you unload everything, then go park the car.  Caz and Demi got the keys and started moving stuff while I parked the car.  The directions to the Quad parking were lackluster but I found a spot eventually.
     I got back to move the last of the stuff.  Then the Nesting started.  I was smart enough to stay out of the way.  Caz was not.  Demi needed to do her thing.  That will probably be the only time the bed is made.
     We got to meet the roommate and his parents.  They couldn't have been nicer.  They parents went to Auburn.  The mom's family was still a mile away from campus.  Her college roommate was there dropping off her freshman daughter.  We all went out to lunch.  The kids ate at theirs own table.  Instant friends.  It was really nice.  Demi nested some more after lunch but we finally let Caz get started on dorm life.
