Happy Thanksgiving ! Hope you dined well and are well-stocked with
leftovers you love. We did indeed celebrate the day at NewPlace, with ham,
baked potatoes, green beans, and the traditional leftover baked beans.
Delicious ! We watched BASEketball and
Bad Santa on DVD and moved another
load down as a convoy. We’re about halfway done. Most of the larger stuff is
moved, save for the bikes and bookcases, and the fridge is in place – we hope
to buy what we need for the ice maker and water dispenser tomorrow.
Learned quite a bit at our new place. The cheep plastic kitchen
faucet – I know it’s cheep, we bought the same one for ThisPit – would pop off
every time I turned on the water, giving me a sudden single-fountain show and
drenching my shirt at the same time. Beloved Hubby reinstalled it twice, and it
was still like a cheap version of the Fountains of Bellagio show. Dearest Son
thought it was hilarious. We hope to replace that tomorrow, as well. Under-sink
garbage disposal is a lost cause, so we’re gonna yank that out and replace it
with regular pipes and a basket type strainer.
We also discovered that we’d left the power cord to the TV at
ThisPit. However, I had grabbed the embroidery sewing machine on the last round
– could that work ? Yes ! So now we know that my sewing machine cord can pull double
duty for the TV. I just hope we don’t have to test it again any time soon !
We’re also sleeping here tonight, and from now on. We got our
beds, last thing. We have sooo much stuff still there, it’ll take us all next
week, one Emmy-car load at a time, and maybe one more big-stuff truck load, to
get it all. We barely have any clothes here, although we did move all of
Dearest’s.
Wow, that's awesome you guys are almost moved in! Have you started planning for removing and replacing the carpet yet?
