PHEW!!! Another move under our belt. This one went pretty smoothly. Well sort of. It really seems like EVERYTHING has been going wrong lately. Our email to people telling about the move details never got sent out and so come 6pm on friday, no one showed up to help Jerry load the moving truck!! Thankfully a few phone calls changed that and we got the van mostly loaded that night. Then a bunch of people helped out on saturday to finish loading the rest and to help unload the van at the new house. Now, a few days later we are more than half way unpacked. This for me is actually the hardest part of the unpacking. Life is moving on (laundry, messes, bathes....) but there is still unpacking to be done. So it goes a whole lot slower now. I must perservere.
We find out on Monday if Jerry has a job. This is with a company who said they wanted him months ago, unfortunately there was a lack of funding, so it was put on hold. Well come monday they will let him know when he starts. Supposedly it will be immediately, but we are nervous that they will say something more like " oh, well, it looks like it will be another month.....' I pray that will not be the case. He has been out of work for a week and a half now.
I know i had a bunch of stuff to write about, but for some reason when I get on here, I draw a blank. Figures.
AHHH, yes, I remember now.....I have a dryer that works!!!! YEAH!! Now for a bit of background. Our dryer was never broken, it was the poor ventilation in the houses we have been livingin that were the problem. At our place in Charlotte it took 3 hours for one load of laundry to dry! That doesn't help when you have a mess of laundry to get dried. Our last place it took at least 2 hours. So i had to run it through 2 cycles. Well, here at this house, it works like it should! I am so happy. However there is one drawback. Whoever designed the house had a flaw. They put the thermostat right across from the laundy closet (it's all in the hallway). So I have been doing a whole mess of laundry, very, very happy with all I can get done in one evening. However Jerry and i noticed it getting colder and colder in the house. hhhmmmm.. Well the thermostat says it's 70 degress in here. NOT!! I have a cold nose and your feet freeze on the non carpeted surfaces. My theory is that it is indeed 70 degrees in the *hallway*, since the dryer is making it nice and toasty in that area. The rest of the house is more like 55 degrees or less. BBBbbbrrrrrrr.
Ok, I'm off to bed. It has been a long day.
