If you waded through my last entry you will know that things haven’t been terribly smooth during my move. Thankfully the previous events were not an indication of future events. Tuesday came and by the evening, my first chance to check, I had DSL fully functioning. I also got a call Tuesday morning from Home Depot letting me know that my washer and dryer were in. That was a surprise since the paperwork said November 1st.
I opted to not have Home Depot deliver/install the washer and dryer mainly because of the amount of money they wanted for the service. I bought a nice, for me at least, front loading washer and dryer that put a big dent (crater?) in my checking account, but it’s the type of item I expect to have around for some time. Home Depot wanted over $100 to deliver and install them. I have a hard time paying anyone that much for so little. Heck, I’m of the engineering mindset, right? The hitch, the washer must weight 250 – 300 pounds *dry*. Wow! Jimbo and I nearly died getting that thing up the stairs and into place.
In more upbeat news (and less painful), the move is essentially over. I turned in the keys to my old apartment Wednesday morning and signed all the paperwork for the new one. No more trips with heavy boxes or furniture to be made. And all just in time as the Q4/Mullet reunion is this weekend. There are already people arriving. Slackers!
News and photos from that event [possibly] as it happens. For sure after.
