The Eagle has Landed

Something must be wrong...how can this have all gone so smoothly?! We're in our new place, we've got about half of the truck unpacked, we're back in the land of internet & cable and our new grocery store rocks! Our expectations have been exceeded. We even got a "Welcome Home" basket from our property management company...a nice touch.

Really, I'm just happy that our big furniture (couches, yellow chair, coffee table, king-size bed) is out of the truck & into our apartment. That was the part I was dreading, but now that it's over, a weight has been lifted (literally & figuratively!). Next time we move, we're definitely paying someone else to do the heavy lifting parts.

How's this for service? John called the cable company today at about 3:00 p.m. to set up an appointment to hook up our cable & high-speed internet. We were thinking it would be great if he could come as early as Monday. The guy said he'd be here at about 5:00 (today!) & he was!!! All jokes about the cable guy coming between 11:00 a.m. & next Tuesday are off!

We've got lots to do in terms of unpacking boxes & setting up our new place, but right now, we're going to relax & enjoy our dinner of meatloaf, twice-baked potatoes & salad. I wish I could say I just whipped it up, but I'm not that together yet. It came from the amazing, ready-to-go section of the previously-mentioned ruling grocercy store, which is just 5 minutes away. Love that place! Oh, we also picked up some beer called "Hazed & Infused"...couldn't resist the name.
