Hi all, another day in paradise! Not much happening today, Ross and I decided to go through the boxes in the house and put away rather than putting any more in. I have the bedroom unpacked, however my new dresser will not be in for another week, remember then one that Yuan brought was way too long, so he is making me another, I put things away but knowing that I will have to move them again to my new dresser a little less longer.
I had Zack (John and Christies son, he knows more Spanish than us) to tell Lily not to come today as we couldn’t find the floor and the only things that could be cleaned is the bathrooms, but sure as shooten’, she showed up at our door at 2, letting us know that she didn’t get the message as her daughter had thrown her cell phone in the toilet! So she stayed for an hour and half cleaning the bathrooms and vacuuming the hair out of our house. (By the way she walked to our house and back home, lord knows how far she walked, it is a very long way!) (For $5.00 an hour!)
We went to Mega to return the bath stuff that Ross had bought, (that pole was 7 feet high and we needed at least 10’) and it took us ¾’s of an hour to get the return done, and they only gave us store credit. We also got a Mega card, just like a Safeway card! We bought an extension cord for my little TV and satellite receiver but it didn’t have the 3 holes we needed so I am using a 100’ cord (Ross’s of course) until we get another. We also got a small table for our bedroom TV and a stool for my shower stall so I can sit and do my legs!
We have 2 hoses filling our pool, (12x3’) and we are hoping that we can have it filled by tomorrow sometime so I can use my floaty thing, as we have still not spent any time at the ocean as we are trying to get our house in order. I know it is a chore, but what can you do??
We are sitting at John and Christies, we still don’t have our papers for our house so we can get ADSL, smelling lemon chicken cooking, we are going to have taco’s at a very less known restaurant! We still don’t have gas either so our stove is not working yet so alas we still need to eat out!
Well, I think this is it for now; we miss everyone, and hope everyone has a great day!
Talk to you soon
Ross and Kim
