Sagas and dramas. Moving continues. We're still slowly getting things into the house. Moving day was not as easy as it was with the old house. Our sellers' movers left from Denver at 10am to be here in Riverton before noon. Yeah... not gonna work. It's a 6.5 hour drive for a semi to get to our little town from Denver. So, they arrived around 430, and it took them an hour to get the truck into a good loading spot in our little cul-de-sac. So 530 is here, and they're starting to load up the truck (we got possession of the house at 4). They finally got the sellers' possessions out of the house around 1215 that night. Needless to say, we barely got anything of ours into the house that first night. My husband had to go to Casper the following day, so we did as much as we could of our moving truck thanks to the help of two people - our young 19 year old friend, and our realtor. The remainder of the truck was done after Paul got back in town at 5p. At that point, everything was loaded into the garage... and the truck was empty around 730p. We weren't able to do much that first night... and have spent as much time as possible since then working on getting stuff into the house. We've made quite a bit of progress, though we still have a long way to go. I won't go into the selling of our old house... it's aggravating, and I don't feel much like going into it again. I'll get some pictures of the new place up once it looks like a home.
Work is going fine. I did some school talks in Casper a couple of days after moving, and that all went well. I probably spoke to around 150 kids throughout the day. Paul and I both caught colds during the move (likely from the stress and a cold house that first night), but thankfully mine did not hit until after I got back from Casper. Phew. I am still getting over it, though I am in the very end stages of it now. Outside of that, it has been evening shifts galore. Good money, hard to get house stuff done. Tonight is my last evening shift for a week+, which I'm pretty happy about. There's a lot of stuff to get done.
Let's see... what else can I tell you. Outside of the house stuff, very little has been going on. We enjoyed the hot tub for the first time last week, and I have to admit that I loved it! It's not something to do during the heat of the afternoon that's for sure, which is probably the other reason I'm pretty happy to get to day shifts again. Alright folks, guess I should get ready for work here. I hope everyone is doing well.
Good news
