The Moving Saga

Back online!  Finally!

The moving saga is just about done and thank goodness for that.

The first few days it was like a box blizzard had hit the house and had not let up for a few days.  We had paths running through each room and not much more to walk around the house.  We had no stove, no refrigerator, and some other electrical and pluming problems, but things have been worked on purchased and rectified.

As far as the stove and refrigerator they are new.  It is a challenge to keep the flat top stove clean and to get used to cooking on something that does not have traditional burners.  It is very nice to have something that I know was not used and abused before we had a chance to use it.  Thanks to our landlord we have that chance.

We didn't have a dryer to work because the circuit breaker was fried and then when replaced the dryer outlet blew up.  Both were replaced and now it functions well. Friday night after doing the dishes, the sink refused to drain.  Drano did not help and it was Monday before some one could come out and rotor rooter the drains.  Now the drains run free and clear!  Yea us!

In the meantime, the dryer did not survive unscathed though. The timer setting knob doesn't function anymore.  We got to figuring up on the age of the dryer and decided it might be time for a new one after 17 years of service.  If we replaced the dryer we might as well replace the washer as well.  There goes eating for the rest of the month!  Found a pretty good deal at Sears and we will have one of each coming on Monday.  Joy to us and new appliances.  And yes we are on the appliance salesman's Christmas card list for next Christmas.  Should be well invested in appliance company stocks as well.

Now many of you know my sense of humor, but I assure you, all of the above is true.  If you would like to stop by and see us to verify the story feel free.  We would love the company and G will be able to show off her new stuff, some of which we will actually get to keep.

The porch light is on and the door latch string is out so feel free to stop by.


Until next time.............................
