I wanna sleep!

Or rest anyway. The move was exhausting. Seems like all our stuff would NOT fit in the biggest truck UHaul rents, so we got the biggest trailer the rent - still would not all fit. So we have to go back for one more small load with our trailer. What a pain. I have figured out something about moving...it is just like having kids. If you remembered how hard it was the first time, you wouldn't do it again, but God tricks us into forgetting and there you go. I guess that's good, or the earth would not have populated itself....and no one would ever move anywhere, and how boring would that be? We would still be thinking the earth is flat.

Ok, enough of that rant. I didn't really get to rest very long - like not at all. The decisions I have to make on a daily basis are a little mind boggling. I have had to make two major treks out finding stuff, and I should have gone today, but I got a little stomach bug or something. Bummed me out cause I was out to lunch with our good friends and neighbors and had to hook it home. Oh well. Another day. I have already been to the dentist (going again tomorrow) which is my least favorite, and found a hair stylist (that's what we call them now days) and I like what she did. Of course I have not idea if I can duplicate the look.

The house is still going pretty good. The roofers are about 1/2 done I guess, and it still looks more and more like the model. Go figure. I've met with the cabinet guy: Paul Mitchell (I thought he just did hair stuff) and have the first draft of that design. I have to tweek it a little...have had to tweek quite a few things, but we are getting it done.

We still don't know when we will be heading back to Andrews to pick up the last load. I want to make a run over to Carlsbad to JD's office while I'm there and have yet to hook up with him to know when would be a good time..with the election 13 days away, I don't know if I will see him.

BTW, as you can see I am back online. Seems my idea about getting the local guys was right...he said, sure we can do it, so he put it back on track and here I am. Nothing to it. I don't know yet what speed I am running at (somebody tell me how to ck that), but it is ok. It may not be faster that the cable I had, but I can't really tell since my computer is still sick and locks up on a regular basis.

I've talked to several of my Andrews friends since we left. I will miss them, but know this is our destiny. We can't wait to see what God had in store here...and I know they will come see us sometimes. I know LAAANDa and Cyd will as soon as Debra and Bill get back and tell them about the 8 catfish they caught next door...tempting?

Ok, I gotta go try to sleep. Ya'll come see us. Bye.
