Needing to Update

Well it's been quite a experience the last week or so....We have gotten moved and trying to get every thing unpacked and find a place for it..It has been quite a job, cause for one thing we don't know just where or in what things were packed...It's like Christmas every time we open up a box and we get to say OH THAT'S WHERE THAT WAS...At least we are 99 percent moved and about 75 percent straighten around with things in there place...I got on line and am just started to put all the electronics together...I have to keep looking in different boxes to get the right cables and cords, What a mess...I don't want to have to move again for sure...It sure is nice though to have more room than we had over at the other house...I have secured a nifty corner in the Texas room to set up all the computers and printers...Once I get it all set up and squared away I will take a picture and post it...Course I will have to find my camera first....LOL...

Well we have been told we must go to the Social Hour in the morning so we can be introduced to the folks in the Village..I have been informed that this is not a PARK, but a VILLAGE....Does that mean we have arrived???I guess only time will tell...

Big Move

Well today I made it official, that is the day of the big move...I went and reserved a u-haul truck this coming Monday for the move...I also asked a few of the men that I chum with if they would be available to help on Monday...Of course they all said OK and afterward several others came to me and said they would help also...At times like this it pays to have good friends to help out...We will sure be busy during the next few days just getting ready and packing...A lot of the small stuff we are moving by car ....The trips seem endless and we may run out of room to just place things...I don't know how we have accumulated so much in such a short time...The new place is a lot bigger but we may run out of room even before we get moved it seems...I know that we will eventually be able to get a place for every thing...Well the time has been set so on with the show....

A little update

Well a whole week has gone by and I haven't put any thing on the blog and I imagine you are wondering what is happening with us...Well this week it has been for the most part very cold in the deep south Texas we're living in...It's not suppose to be this cold at this time of the year for sure...Of course that's no excuse for not doing something, just not as much...We have really been kind of busy finishing up all the little things that need to be done before we really do all the moving...I don't want to be living some place and trying to fix up things and be in a mess.. This way if we get tired or something is going to take too long to fix or repair we can just quit for a while and not have to clean up and start over again....Today we were able to finish installing a new range hood over the stove in the island...It started out to be a 30 minute job and turned into about 5 hours or more...Some of the fittings and hook ups aren't the same size in a mobile home as in a regular house and when you run into them unexpected, they can sure cost you some time to engineer things to work...Well time is getting closer for the big move...I won't say just when that will happen, but it won't be too long in the future....I will try to do better to keep you informed...
