Got my latest Xmas light decoration installed. It's above the front door.

Got a lot done, but still gotta wrap the trees and columns plus maybe the bushes. Got a lot of lights to use still.

Cold night, so dinner was tomato basil soup with bacon grilled cheese sandwiches. Also put a duraflame log in the fireplace to test it out. It's going to be nice having a fireplace.

Moving Day

Tomorrow we rent a truck and start loading it to then unload it only a couple hours later at our new house. We'll also pick up our new dining room set on the way. The internet here is scheduled to turn off Friday(today) so it might be turned off any moment. Who knows when it might get turned back on at the new house.



HAHAHA, who am I kidding. I had Comcast setup to shut off at one place and turn on at the next place less than 24 hours later. I'll just have to wait till 5-8pm. Figured I'd be busy enough tomorrow that I could make it till then. Besides, we always have our phones.

Our new house will have an extra room for guests. So if you're in the area and need a place to crash, we have a queen size bed and guest bath ready to go. Some warning would be appreciated though to be sure we're in town and no one else is using it. But we plan on having it setup so it can be ready at a moments notice.

Back to packing so I don't get yelled at.

    I'm looking to take the entire week after Christmas off. The earliest we can leave would be Christmas night, but preferably Saturday (12/26). I should have January first off so I only have to use PTO for 4 days. Possibly returning home on Saturday (01/02). Does that help? I might be able to get the 4th off and we head home Sunday the 3rd, but not sure.
