HOUSE

Tuesday morning we met with the painter and went over the estimate and the colors I has picked. The painters started at 9:00 a.m. Thursday morning and finished about 2:30 p.m. on Friday. (a crew of five, and one of them was 81 years old) I made it easy for them, just 3 colors. I really like the colors. You never know for sure what they will look like. We got the sample size paint and put it on the wall, but a 5 inch square looks different than a whole wall. The painters did a great job.



We started moving some things in on Thursday and took 4 car loads over today. Vern has everything out of the motor home basement and I will have almost everything out of the motor home on Sunday. The only thing left will be clothes and a few dishes.



We went Friday and ordered most of the furniture from 3 different stores. Most of it will be delivered on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Our bed will be delivered on Tuesday, so our first night in the house will be Tuesday.



One of the neighbors stopped by and introduced himself and told us a little about some of the other neighbors. He said he was on the way to the recycle center and would take our garbage if we had any. Here you can have a garbage service with curb side pickup, or pay a yearly fee and take your garbage and recycle things to a recycle center. That is what we are going to do. We have always recycled until we sold the house, so we'll be able to start it again. More about the house in a few days.
