moving right along
Things are coming along here. I found parts online to fix the grill out back, but the faucet in the master bath sprung a leak today so that will have to be dealt with soon.
Kittens went to the vet and are fine. There was an interesting crowd in there this morning. We had one cat howling up a storm in the back, seems he dove?/slid? off a roof this morning. I met a woman who had just gotten back from Somalia with her 17 year old cat and two women from Australia with a lost dog, whose owner had already called looking for him.
We found a store with bookcases we like, we’ll order those this week and get a library done. It is strange not having one set up. We’ve been to busy to use one any how though I’m hoping things settle into a routine soon.
Strange things for sale at Walmart
Love the stereo, I have the 3 Tenors and some favorite opera cuts blaring through the house. The husband tells me from the second floor there are four wireless networks beside ours that he can see.
Tv and Dvd are now hooked up. Once we can get mail I’ll start up Netflix again. Very busy day here. I made another major cleaning pass, we put more furniture together and did more errands. I did a ton of shopping online last night, that was a big help. The junkman comes tomorrow to haul stuff away so we can start on the next round. We’ve a pile of styrofoam and cardboard that is about 4′x3′x12′. It is seriously encroaching on living space. We also fixed many of the little things on the to do list and the air filter system is up and running. It’ll be interesting to see if it helps with my allergies.
I love wearing the ipod when I am out doing errands, instead of mugging you when you enter a store, the help just smiles knowingly. It is much better than having to deal with them.
The Walmart candy section isn’t all candy down here. About half of it is beef jerky in about 30 different flavors. They also have microwavable pork rinds. ( ewww !! ) Another odd thing down here is all the mattress stores. Every strip mall has a mattress store. I don’t know how they all stay in business, it looks like there are at least a half dozen mattress chains.
