Moving Tomorrow

Friday, August 8, 2008 3:55 PM by shawn.tomlinson

Well, we are finally moving into our house tomorrow.  I am looking forward to it, but my back isn't.  I am fully expecting my back to be completely jacked come Sunday.  Maybe I can join Marisa at the chiropractor and we can get the family jacked-back discount.   

On a side note, I am feeling the pain of being a home-owner.  Some things in the house are not working, the yard is in horrible shape, and I am constantly thinking of things I need but dont have.  For example, that part of the yard is very dry (the sprinkler system must be missing it), I need to water it.  Oh, I guess I need a garden hose unless I want to carry buckets of water from the kitchen.  Hey, I need to unhook that wire from the ceiling in the basement.  Hmmmm...can't reach it,  I need a ladder, or I need to develop some mad jumping skills.  Man, it sure would be nice if i had something in the garage to put my tools in, or on.  Hey, a workbench!  Well, for now the floor is a good spot :)

Actually, home ownership has been great so far, but it is still fun to share the adventures of it!

This new home ownership blog that you keep is going to be a lot of fun to read. I just read Dave this one and he was laughing so hard, so was I. We have all been there, except Danny and Kim, since they got most of the garage stuff when we sold our house in Simi, they won't be missing all of these items you need as a home owner.
Hang in there, you can't have 2 of you out with back injuries.
Love you guys, see you in a month, please have the moving done by then. Smile

I hope you live close to Home Depot or Lowes. I think I've made about 20 trips to each so far and it's only been half a year.

I live close to an Ace Hardware, not as big as Home Depot but has most stuff i need. The home depot is a little further away. The cashiers there know me now. I have gone there 7 or 8 times already. It is my new hangout.

Aunt Jeri, when are you going to be here in Sept again? I did't write the dates down. Oops.
