Being Thursday doesn't really mean anything except that the week is almost over. Which is great - not that its been a particularly hard week...its just been long...and a little rough, boxing, cleaning, moving, Logan being sick, JR's work has picked up and isn't getting home until after 7:00. It makes it a little rough for me. When I have these really long weeks, I just want it to be over so I can start again on Monday and hope that it goes by a little faster.
We haven't moved anything over to the house in the last two days....Tuesday, Logan was vomiting all day long, and I didn't get much packed..we were going to move over some furniture, but I just couldn't get my butt in gear. Last night, JR didn't get home until 7:30 - I had dinner ready, but after dinner we were both so worn out that we decided we would do it today. So tonight for sure, we have to get the TV's, the box and remotes over, because they are setting up the cable tomorrow, and we also have to get the computer and modem over for the internet. Hopefully we can move over a few other items as well.
Oh, while cooking dinner last night, we had 2 families come to look at the house...apparently the owners are impatient and I am guessing that they may not have the resources to pay the rent in the apartment that they are in and pay the mortgage for this house, so they just put the house up for lease/sale...Plus, I heard one of the realtor tell the family how much it was for lease, and the owners are asking for more than what we pay.
There is still a lot of stuff we need for the new house - We need two sitting chairs for the den, two twin beds for the guest bedroom - or one queen size, a futon for the office...there are a few other things that we could use - but for now we just have to work on one thing at a time. I was hoping to find a sander so that I could sand my kitchen table and restain it. It was handed down to me from my parents which was given to them by my grandparents...and it was plenty of wear after being with my parents! LOL Its not an antique or anything...its probably about 12-15 years old...but it could just use a little freshening up. I am thinking about going to the salvation Army to find some chairs, and then just buying the fabric that JR and I like and upholstering the chairs myself. But that means that I would need to buy several new tools and I dont think I can afford that yet. We looked on craigslist and found two that are okay, so we have a bid in on them and maybe they can just work out for now and overtime I can get the chairs that I really want.
Anyway, we have a lot to do today...hopefully someone will want to lease or buy this house by tomorrow and then we can end our lease agreement and get refunded for the month of March plus the deposit...whew - wouldn't that be nice!
