Days After

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we had many workmen in and out of the house. The fireplace door was installed, the shower door upstairs and the last of the lighting fixtures. We had a problem with the dishwasher. Steve called the plumber who was in the area to help us with the problem and while they were here they were nice enough to hook up the washer and dryer too. These were a couple hectic days with not much unpacking accomplished. The many boxes continued to line the kitchen walk way and a dozen more to unpack sitting in the living room. We have far too much stuff.
We ordered a desk from Haverty's for Paul's study I picked it up Tuesday afternoon. When I arrived back to the house we could not unload it ourselves, it was too heavy! We were told it was in three pieces in the large box and it was not it was completely put together in one large box. We called the furniture company for help, they sent their delivery men to our rescue who were near by. If they had not stopped in to give us a hand the desk would still be on the pickup in the driveway.
We enjoyed our first meal together, sandwiches on fresh baked bread Rita made, deeelicious! We slept real well Tuesday night from sheer exhaustion. A wonderful peaceful sleep in our home.
