I Hate moving, I really really do. I think that is why we lived in our apartment for so long, we just didn't want to move. Well that is all over, now it is time to unpack and Uglify our new house with our old furniture. Yes I now have the home network hooked up and working, the Cable guy was in Saturday and hooked up all the externals, cable and Phone and I worked on the Ethernet wall jacks in, and hooking up the router in the basement. I just have to put up a shelf to hold everything.
One of the "issues" we had last week was with the appliances. They were delivered, and out of 6 appliances 1 didn't show up (microwave), 2 were damaged (Stove and Dryer), and 3 weren't hooked up (Dishwasher, Fridge, and Dryer). I guess due to some miscommunication somewhere along the road, someone decided we didn't need the plumbing for the dishwasher at all. Apparently they thought we were going to get some new fandangled pipless washer that only needed electricity run to it. The drain and waterline were split from under the sink but no lines were run. Why would you need lines for the dishwasher anyways? It is much more fun to have it sitting in the middle of the Kitchen. They did replace the stove and dryer, but when they replaced the dryer, they also replaced the washing machine. I guess they come as a set and don't like to be split up. Maybe when they are given a home, they have to be together for behavioral problems, so they don't become crazed maniac appliances later on in life because they were split from their sibling when they were so young. I dunno, just a guess. The Microwave did show up eventually, I think they beamed it in or something. Well last night we had a plumber show up and install everything, so all is out of the way and working now. We even have ice! The miracles of modern technology!
So right now we are still moving stuff round to see where it all fits, and what we need where. It is amazing how we are able to fill up this house with stuff from a 2 bedroom apartment. Well we did take a couple of donations, but we got RID of stuff as well, weird. I think the furniture is breeding or something.
Hopefully I can find my camera and take some photos of the mess and post them. I was going to make a video walkthough, but right now it would be a video of dodging boxes and piles of "stuff". Once we get everything set up I think I will give it a try.

Yes, moving sucks! Sounds like the headaches and problems are being solved and growing fewer though. /hazzaa! I bet they thought you wanted the new 'green' diswasher. Sit it in the floor, pour in a cup of water and shake the entire washer for 30min! Looking forward to pics. Paul
Congrats guys. Very exciting. Your home is beautiful.
thinking of you,
