playing catch up
We are here in our new house and almost unpacked. It is great it doesnt yet feel like home. It is so much bigger than our last house. We had a 26 foot box truck stuffed. Heathers brother and parents helped a lot. Some of my friends kicked in help and my parents also. My mortgage company still hasnt given us a closing date. We cant get mail here until we close. Theres a wild turkey that runs around a deer. But I think since the dogs came home there will be less of that. There are a couple things left for the builder to do they will be here Thursday and Friday working. But 75% of our stuff is unpacked in less than a week hey neither of us is working right now so we used the time. We still have some organizing to do but I got rid of a bunch of boxes. It is rural up here, it is going to take a little getting used to that is for sure.
Believe it or not the phone company is almost a week late in installing our phone Verizon is on my S list also. They say since its a new house setting it up for 911 location is difficult. It is 2006 right? They are building all over this mountain and I found out that they do have wires all over here.
Hopefully by next week we will have things pretty well tied up. We still have to re take the written part of the Pa. drivers license test just to convert our licenses, but cant do that until our house is officially ours. See how my mortgage company runs us in a vicious circle. It is like living in limbo which I am sure you do a lot of. We cant even get our mail because we cant prove we live here.
We are a lot more settled in now. We finally close on the house tomorrow, but not after tons of phone calls. We then have to set up our mail, garbage, join the community. I finally met a woman up here (no not like that shes married also). She lives in one of the 3 houses my builder has built up here. It was great she was giving me advice on our development.
Man I had a phone fight with Bank of America today. Stay far away from them if they are by you. They have a screen that prompts the tellers to automatically send you a credit card, this woman did even after I said no. We were moving and going to be changing banks anyway so I didnt want the card to get lost in the mail. Well they sent it anyway. I called up to cancel it and did so and after some words with the rep he hung up on me. I put over $100,000 in their bank after I sold our last house and they hung up on me. And this is the short version. I spoke to 6 people on the phone. By next Friday I hope to have this account closed. I dont need to bank with them.
I have been pushing myself to much with getting settled and get run down I hope to start getting more rest now. I hope everything is good with you. I found some old friends online (actually they found me) and that has been cool. I have a new address if you get time for a letter:
This new house is great for us, but it is taking some getting used to it is rural up here they dont deliver mail and dont pick up garbage. Come on these are in the constitution right? I kept looking like, no one is putting out garbage. What gives? But we are getting a 50 gallon steel drum and we can burn some of it. FIRE! But if the windows are open our smoke detectors will go crazy. So it might be more of a fall sport. Today on a trip out I threw some of our garbage in someones unsuspecting dumpster hey desperate times equal desperate measures. I am pretty sure thats not legal. But is should be wrong not picking up garbage or not delivering mail either.
