Moving yesterday was a little chaotic. Normally, a little chaos isn’t a big deal to me. Chaos combined with stress is the struggle.

I locked the keys to the U-haul in the trailer of the truck. We spent two hours talking with rude locksmiths, nice locksmiths, and roadside agents. I spent a combined 50 minutes on the phone just waiting. My mistake came from the stress in the moment. It also lost us about 2 hours. That amplified the stress even more.

The kicker is, I spent all that time on the phone just to be informed that I could cut the lock myself saving time, a locksmith bill, and a little sanity. I think the frustration was this all could have been avoided. I think next time I’m hiring someone else to stress out. I don’t want to be on the inside of the chaos.
