moving chronicles: days 3 & 4



another quick moment online.

thanks to everyone for all the good wishes and positive moving vibes. all is well.

we have been dealing with hassles re: phone and dsl connectivity at our house. but supposedly by thursday all will be in working order.

i am slowly -- very slowly -- unpacking. the kitchen is pretty much set up.

there have been some annoying things. like a burglar alarm that goes off at random that we can't seem to turn off completely when we are home. a high pitched sound that comes through the heating system and makes me sit bolt upright in the middle of the night. and the smell of dead animal coming through one of the heating ducts. but hopefully, all these things will soon be resolved.

and the jacuzzi, it does not work. in fact, it looks like it has been disabled. such a disappointment!

but we are still totally thrilled with our new digs.

our first day luna the cat snuck into the crawl space next to tashi's bedroom and disappeared amongst the eaves. we were worried about her all day and well into the night. she finally came out late and curled up with tashi in bed. now we have to strictly guard that crawl space, a place where tashi was setting up a sort of "clubhouse".

we fired up the wood burning stove last night. ah bliss. we haven't had to turn on the heating system since then, though we sure are going to have to find ourselves loads of firewood if we plan to make this a main source of heat.

in the mean time, it is wonderful to gaze at while resting between boxes.
