Teaching my children to question authority, except mine.

Alive

April28

We have arrived.   About 75% of our stuff is here (the truck was too small so we didn’t get it all…I won’t get into it because that would involve me throwing around some “I told you so”s to my wonderful hubby).  The kitchen is completely functional but mostly devoid of food.  Bathrooms and bedrooms are mostly up and running.  Still a lot to do but at least nothing critical remains in a box.  Cable was installed before the moving van arrived.  The DSL became functional in the past hour but I don’t know the password to our network so I am stealing borrowing a signal from an unsuspecting kind neighbor (why didn’t I think to check for free signals this weekend?).

We hate living among boxes but we love the house and the space.  More once Steve comes home and unlocks our signal.

    When we first moved into our house I “borrowed” from some unsuspecting neighbor too. Maybe the starbucks that is about a 1/4 mile away? Although now I don’t think they offer free wifi.

    Hey, congratulations!

    I’m about 3 weeks behind you, and procrastinating all the way. I’d love to hear your tips on actually unpacking all the boxes of the stuff you were sure you couldn’t live without………or is that only a problem I suffer from?

    Glad you made it. Glad you have a neighbor who doesn’t know how to lock down their WiFi!!

    Yay! Happy to hear you made it and can post, even if you are already stealing from the neighbor. (something I have done many a time…)

    Welcome home! Glad the move went well despite the space issue!

    Yes, we were nice neighbors for almost a year as well, but then decided we better lock things up – so now we are not so nice in sharing our wifi!

    Hi Michelle,
    I have really enjoyed your blog. Congrats on the move and the baby. Your Guat girl is a doll.
    Can I ask a favor, can you please go back to March21st and remove a comment from Ashley (my bff). I have some securety issues with some of my adopted kiddos here and just need to keep where I live off the blogs if I can.
    Thanks so much,
    Betsy
