The preparations for our imigration to Brazil seemed to be endless. First to get all kinds of documents in order to recieve the permanent visas. Then sell our house, which was very difficult at that time. We couldn't sell it and after one year the visas had expired and we had to repeat each single step again. Fortunately within the second year we finally sold the house. Now came all that awfull work with tidying out, packing and shipping. We also had a huge back and forth to find a flight which accepted to transport our three cats.
Family? No. The nearer ones were already dead. Nieces and nephews lived in completely remote areas in Switzerland. Luckily we had good neighbours who helped us as far as they could. Once in Brazil we had to rent a house for some weeks until the previous owners could move out. Additionally the horror to wait until the containers arrived.
Well, we all inclusive cats) survived it. Though I'd never do it again.
Yep, all that! Although I moved just a few blocks. STILL, blocks or thousands of miles, it's an incredible PITA.
And BOYS (generally speaking) are pretty much Useless
Nah, I'd have to disagree with that. My grandmother, may she rest in peace, spent most of her life lamenting the fact that she had two sons but no daughters. It sort of became a family joke. But the truth is both of her sons were there for her and helped her out with things all her life but especially after my grandfather passed. Those two sons also gave her seven loving grandchildren, including four girls!
My mother-in-law is currently in a nursing home after having a stroke. She has four sons, no daughters. One son is out of state and in a nursing home himself, but three of them live in our home state. My husband and one of his brothers are up visiting with her and helping look after her needs every single day between the two of them, and her other son who lives two and a half hours away comes almost every Sunday, his only day off from work.
So in my own experience, sons are right up there with daughters. There are certainly occasional exceptions, though.

Yeah, guess it all just depends on the luck o' the draw
