Hello everybody, hello everybody, hello and how are you?
Well we got pretty much everything moved! Wow it was one of the craziest days of my life! We got almost everything into one truck! The boys and Laura went back for a second trip and to pick up some much needed booze! I think we had everything pretty much wrapped up by about midnight and finally had a few mins to relax. It was great! But we were so tired we didn't' want to drive the truck back to Cedar Falls so we made the crazy decision to get up in the morning to have it gassed up and back by 8am! We did it! After that we went right back home and went to bed! We were still so exhausted! I got up about 1 and Mike slept in until 3:30, the man can sleep! I was seriously overwhelmed by everything there was to do that day and about started to cry! And we didn't get the TV hooked up yet so I really didn't have any distraction to help me relax so I started to do some unpacking. Thanks to my mom and Laura who pretty much unpacked my whole kitchen and got everything set up, that was a huge project I didn't have to do! Thanks guys! I also want to say thank you to my Dad, with out ya we would have never gotten everything in one day! Thanks for you support when I went into panic mode!
I GOT MY TREE UP! And the house decorated for Christmas! I know that may not seem like the most important thing to do when you have a house full of boxes, but our house now feels like home! We still don't have a fridge or stove yet so cooking has been interesting! But it's also been easy, lots of frozen pizza, it makes me thankful that Iowa is a frozen tundra sometimes because our patio is our freezer and our breezeway is our fridge! It's been quite interesting!
Monday was great! We went to The Readlyn Telephone company and got our phone, cable, and Internet hooked up. Went to city hall to pick up our garbage rules, and went to the Post Office to get our PO BOX! Then we came into town so Mike could finish up working on his Blazer (yay it works! Finally!), and to go pick our a garbage can! We went to Lowe's and spent way to much money, but I got a real wreath, which I decorated with white lights and a big red bow that I hung on the front door! It look so pretty! I took a picture and am going to try and get a whole bunch uploaded tonight! I will try! We are going to try and take a Christmas photo to! Well today I am back at work but really don't want to be. Thank goodness I only have to work 4 days this week and then I have next week off! Whoo Hoo! I hope to finish unpacking and start some painting! Wow it's already overwhelming me! HELP!
