Oh I have so much I would have written about in the last few weeks, if only I had Internet, I would have! And now, I can only think of a few things to write about.
The move into the house went really well. I love our church! The men got our truck loaded up in one evening, and it was amazing. I didn't think our whole house would fit into such a small box, but they did it! They worked every piece like a puzzle, moving here, sliding there, squishing here and adjusting there, making it all fit. They were amazing! And then the next morning people from our new ward came to help us unpack the truck and they had it all out and in rooms in under 35 minutes! Then they also helped us put together beds and move around furniture. We are so lucky our church is such a service oriented well oiled machine! I can't imagine making the move without them. And JoAnne even brought us dinner so I could pack up our dishes and not have to worry about cooking. <3 Thank you friend!
I have the upstairs almost unpacked. Just a few more boxes in the living room need to be dispersed and tossed downstairs to be broken down. The kids all did their rooms the second day we were in the house, and that helped me so much. Plus, they got to make the choices about how their rooms should look. I got the kitchen unpacked this Sunday after church and that was a big deal. I have so much kitchen stuff! Oh and we need to put up shelving in our master closet and get the clothes boxes unpacked. Our closet is lined with cedar wood and it smells soooo gooood!
We have now seen one deer, heard pheasants, heard foxes, found fox poop and seen lots of deer tracks. I didn't know what I was hearing the other night and had to google YouTube on my phone to watch videos of foxes and coyotes and listen for the sound I heard. Turns out it was a red fox. Neat! Joel found a den out in the woods in an old log, so that makes sense.
We can't get internet at the new house for a while. We are out in the boonies and there is pretty much only one company that can offer us internet for streaming tv, I need my Hulu and Netflix! They came out the other day and told us that the antenna that came with the house needs a $129.00 part. Ouch. I was kinda hoping to spend that money on a water softener that takes iron out. So now we are tipping scales. One side, internet. Other side, water softener that makes my water not smell like rotten eggs or chlorine. One is only $200, one is $5-600. Decisions, decisions. In the meantime I am driving down to the campus to use their internet, which is how I am making this post today! :)
I am registered for next semester, but might make an addition if I can find a fun class to add. Otherwise it's just 3 classes (11 credits) for me this semester.
Ummmm.... that's about all I can think of for now.
Oh! When you buy sheets and they are a bright color, wash them and rinse them several times before you use them! Jake got sent home from work the other day, and followed by his boss, because they thought he was turning blue. Turns out, it was just the new sheets I bought him that had bled onto him, lol! Love that kid!
