still moving. . . .

[dinda]

My movers had to reschedule for today b/c of all the rain yesterday. Good thing I'm flexible but must suck for others who were on deadlines. At one point yesterday there were four to six very manly men all coming and going, and fixing/delivering or installing tons of stuff. We got cable/phone/internet and some living room furniture delivered and then the plumber came by fo unstop the new sink and then "the boys" were there most of day doing light stuff downstairs in the garage and outside. Jamaica Beach is literally a one stoplight town and so "the boys" are two local guys who know everyone and do almost everything. In addition to being part-time handy men/elecircal guys they also volunteer fireman and one runs the water department and a dozen other things depending on the time of day. Kind of neat.

Okay, now I need to go grocery shopping but I'm not sure what time the movers will be making their way over. I also still need outdoor furniture and tons of other stuff but am trying to wait until I get the kitchen unpacked to try to figure out what else I might need. Like I'm pretty sure I don't even have a pot to pis-, er boil water in but who knows until I unpack. I did a pretty good job of boosting the local economy this past weekend so I'm trying to be patient and wait until I see what I have. Luckily my friends have offered to help with a decorating intervention otherwise everything in the place would have been brown/tan/beige or khaki as that is what colors the landlord painted and had carpet installed. okay, off to do stuff now. . .
