I'm not liking how this is beginning. The PODs was supposed to be delivered today before 3:45 according to the call I got last evening as I killed time in the airport. Corpsman wasn't happy about having no carpet downstairs at all, so I compromised and let him have it in part of the downstairs. I might have to get the tile from somewhere besides Lowes since they don't seem to have what I want in stock. Everything else is good for delivery. We'll see how it all turns out.
ETA: After a phone call to the toll-free number, the PODs driver called me back shortly after six. I told him I had a meeting I needed to leave for at seven. He assured me he'd be done by then. At about 6:30, the truck arrives. The driver had to time backing in to the driveway to avoid all the traffic. He placed it exactly where I asked him and was done by 7:00.
Now comes the fun of loading it. Hubby threw the newspapers I was using for packing into the recycle, and we don't get a daily paper anymore to replace them. I'll call mother-in-law to see if she has a small pile I could grab. It's always something.
