Relocation pain

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii....
I know its a long time I havent posted anything here and you all already miss me....
Well I missed you too...

But all of you all know the reason behind my absence....

Relocation isn't as easy as u (we) think. If you were a bachelor it wouldn't be a big deal otherwise, its a lot of pain.... You have to work your ass-off to pack all the stuff.. kitchen, clothes, living room and what not everything. The other pain is deciding on what to take and what to trash :(.. While I had to dump extra things in the trash, then I decided that I have to think 10 times while buying anything for my home just like the way you consult 10 people while getting your daughter married... hehehe....
Coz it would be fun to shop around but then when u have to carry all the stuff where ever you go, that would practically be impossible...

Its been 3 weeks since we drove all the way from upstate New York to North Carolina..
Well.... driving 640 miles took us 12 loooooooooooong hours but then neither of us never felt the strain. Reasons could be the 75 miles/hour speed limit (well we drove in 80 though.. coz rules are always rules wherever we are and the rule that rules are meant to be broken would never change)
We didnt feel broken coz we took 2 or three breaks on our way for food and gas.
In one of the gas stations I have found a hoarding that says "our food gives you gas".... wasn't that clear what it really means... but it definitely brought a smile on our faces :D

Well let me give you few details about the state and then I will share my experiences I had here....

North Carolina is in the southern part of the united states of america with Raleigh as the capital and Charlotte as the largest city. Throughout the year the temperatures here are really hottttt when compared to the other parts of the united states (they make me feel like I am in India). The sad part is that I will miss the New York winters especially the snow). My husband feels lucky coz he doesn't have to clean up his car every single day in the freezing winters coz it barely snows here.

One thing I observed is that people here use a different dialect to communicate.. They kind of speak like a typical andhra guy speaks.... There is a peculiar way they stretch each and every word (that made it at times a little difficult for us to understand :)

And on our way from NY to NC, when we stopped for food (and the gas it gives.. according to the hoarding :D), I felt very embarrassed coz everyone was looking at us like we were aliens or abandoned. I believe they have this racial discrimination. Yeah they have lotsa racism... huhh..... disgusting....

The place hickory is pretty much like the place we lived before except the no snow (in bold) winters...
Keeping aside the weather, I like the place... We are very close to the mall, wal-mart, sams-club and what not everything....

And that is all for now... coz we haven't explored much here so I will keep adding stuff as time passes on if anything interesting comes up and you keep checking out :D
