Fresh off the Boat

Hard to believe that a week ago we were still in Europe! So much has happened since then. We were able to close on our new house early as our money showed up sooner than expected. That is such a big relief! The tight time schedule is now off, and we can just tackle one thing at a time. Overwhelmed with how many things there are, but we have time, so it will be managable.

Claire and Matt were here along with my parents to meet us at the airport. Both our flights were delayed, so it was a 24 hour day, but everything made it through. So happy we didn't have to deal with any lost luggage. We picked up a cold, so its been annoying trying to shake that while getting everything done. 

Found a better deal than expected in regards to internet and new phones, so we will try to get that set up in the next week or two. The seller of our house left some things behind, and we will take some of Claire's old stuff, so after we clean things out and put in a new living room floor, we should be able to settle into our new place. Also spent 11k on the new woodshop. Unfortunate timing as we were so busy with other things, but they were on sale, so we made it work. Getting the credit card up to speed was a bit of a challenge, and it will take two trips with the truck, but in a few weeks everything should be all set.
