Been a busy girl today

[hrj]

Today's accomplishments:

Took receipt of fridge and washer/dryer.
Trimmed moulding as necessary to insert fridge.
Entertained father and brothers, including first family meal in the new house and a couple rounds of cards out in the shade in the future-garden.
Successfully communicated with the postman regarding optimal placement of mailbox.
Got commitment from father to install said mailbox on Tuesday when the plumber and Comcast people are also scheduled.
Went shopping for necessities (cleaning supplies, mailbox, light bulbs, necessary connection for hooking gas to dryer, kitchen trash can), for redundancies that can't wait on unpacking (shorts, frying pan), and for luxuries (nice bathroom set of soap dish, toothbrush holder, etc.).

Taking advantage of the Starbucks wifi then next door to Trader Joe's to get groceries now that I have some place to put them, and then home to put away the loot.

I don't know about you, but I've always found something very satisfying about "nesting."

Don't mind me if I'm the teensiest bit envious. I like where I am, I love my landlord and renting makes the most sense for me, but owning one's own house would be cool too.

And the progress progresses. Glad things have gone relatively smoothly so far.

Steady progress, projects abound:
wholly Heather, a home in the making.
