Our mattresses were delivered today and we got the bedroom set put together. We installed the shower curtains; Jeff and Stephen installed the two ceiling fans we bought. They had quite a bit of trouble with the light in the dining room, but I think they were both just exhausted. Paula and I set up the kitchen as much as we could. The appliance installers are there now hooking up the washer/dryer, stove and frig. The furniture store is there putting together our dining room furniture, so it's beginning to look like a house. I posted a couple of pictures on Facebook and have added some here. I love the lawn service picture--the small patches of grass out front were overgrown, so we paid this gentleman $4 to cut it with his machete. He was very efficient and it looks awesome.
We have church tonight at 6:30--looking forward to seeing everyone again. The weather has been awesome--highs in the mid 80's and lows around 75. It's only rained at night which has been a real blessing with all the loading and unloading we've need to do.
We are planning to stay in the house tonight. Our list of things to buy is still pretty long and I will be adding to it as I start trying to cook. The cleaning lady comes tomorrow ($10 per week.) We are still expecting our Internet to be installed tomorrow. We need to go back to the furniture store to pick out our living furniture. We haven't looked at TV's or cars.
That's it for now--we're happy to get email until our phone get installed.
Looking good. Maybe Dad can get his hair cut while in El Salvador by the same guy for $4, too.
