No more homeless-ness

We have a house... finally. Our household goods were delivered this past Wednesday. It has been a total nightmare of a trip!! I am so glad this move is over. All we have left to do is unpack.

We had a horrible time with the U-Haul trailer. We had 3 flat tires on the trailer...one in NY, one in Nebraska and one in Idaho.... (same side/tires) and also, one tire on the truck while we were visiting my mom. I was flat tired out!!

We thought (and were told) that it was going to be fairly simple to get into housing out here... HA HA HA... yeah, right. We were eventually able to find a house out in town to rent, and it seems we should be okay here. We have a really nice back yard, or will be when we get it mowed and some extra water! 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a "bonus" family room. The kitchen is lacking... well, the kitchen, but will be semi-remodeled very soon. I am pretty sure this is the ORIGINAL stove to this house... My mom says it looks like it is from a Doris Day movie.

Scary, huh? Well, only one burner works, and there is another one that thinks about getting warm, but never actually acomplishes it. I will be glad when it is gone!! I am going to ask (eventually) about painting the kitchen. They just got done painting it not too long ago-- but they painted it a dark chocolate brown.... It is just WAY too dark for a kitchen and I never feel it is very clean. I would rather a tan, if I must stay in the browns (the rest of the house is in tans and browns-- but nice nutral colors) Just the kitchen is not good.... I hope they let me re-paint it to a nicer, lighter color!!

Anyway--we are here -- and if you have not recieved the new address -- let me know and I will send you a private email with the address in it. I am not sure how "public" my blog is, so I don't want to post it for the whole world full of crazies to find me!
