Big day - we got a fridge!

We had a bit of a day off today -- we went to town & picked up our new(to us) fridge - purchased, no, stolen, for a mere $150. On Craigslust, oops, typo - or could be a freudian slip since The "L" Word is playing in the background (Brian insisted on watching the episode he fell asleep half-way thru the other night. . . He just got very frustrated listening to how everyone apologizes to eachother & is so concerned about each other's feelings -- I mean, imagine that. . .
Anyway -- what was I saying last night? We are in -- but we were a day late getting out, just as I was afraid of and we still have a garage full of stuff to move plus all the pots on the deck plus a few fix-ups so it is not yet final. This place is pretty much in the state I expected it would be in -- the floors aren't all in, nor are they sealed, & now all of our furniture is in so the "moving" is not even close to being done. The hole in the ceiling & walls where the chimney was have been patched, & we now have a kichen sink & a stove but all that happened yesterday. I have some photos but I can't figure out how to get them posted from this phone so they will have to wait for the laptop to be operational which should happen on Wed.
We did take a break on Sun. Aft. And took the dogs to the beach for a couple of hours. It was a perfect late summer day - warm, sunny, & breezy -- it felt GREAT! I need a day or 2 of rest -- we both do although Bruno insists we must persevere -- even though there is compelling evidence to the contrary -- yesterday he was looking for something in his pockets & realized he had his shorts on backwards & today we stopped at Ikea to get a utensil rack for the kitchen & he left it leaning against the side of the truck. . . Or maybe that's just the status quo -- who can even remember what that is?

  1. I hope the kitchen is functional in time for blackberry pie season....how are the dogs adjusting to life in the sticks?
