Endless boxes!
I think the boxes from the move are having sex and multiplying in our garage.
But...the good thing about all this is that as a result of all the exercise (yesterday I moved boxes from 7AM to about 5PM) is that I have surpassed my weight loss goal. HA! I wanted to lose 10 pounds and I've lost 11.
Other stuff:
We had to get a new dining room table, since we now have a nook and a formal dining room. Well, we didn't HAVE to. No one was twisting our arm, but we wanted to use that space. Anyhow, the table has now been delivered three times, and all three times something was wrong with it. The first time it was missing a piece for the pedestal. The second time we had the missing piece, but it didn't fit with the top. The third time they took the old top back, but the new top didn't match the finish! So on it goes. They try for a fourth time this afternoon. At least they took 10% off the price for all this trouble.
We get a/c installed this morning. I don't mind the heat so much, but since this is in a new construction area, having all the windows open with all this wind means having a gritty layer of dust on EVERYTHING. So being able to close the windows will be nice.
I donated a painting to Art for AIDS which will go on auction this weekend. It's a black tie kind of thing, and fun to go to. Since I have no other reason to wear a tie in my regular life these days, it will be different!
Tonight is a wine tasting thing at our friends house. I could care less about the actual tasting of the wine, but I like to get out and socialize, especially since I work from home these days.
Sunday we are having some folks over for a bbq. Hopefully we will have the grill working by that time. It's still in a box in the garage.
I keep saying I will post photos of the new house, but right now I have NO clue where the camera is.
