We moved in this week (Monday was the big day) and we are very happy here. Our dog LOVES the yard and he is an inside dog. lol He wants to be outside now. lol That's a good thing :)
After we are all settled in, I'll post pics of how the furniture is. We got our Washer and Dryer too. Brand New Whirlpool Cabrio's and they are AWESOME!!!
Within these last few weeks, we have had nothing but good luck come to us and I pray it continues for us.

Slowly Packing
OMG my daughter came home yesterday to go through some of her stuff and we filled our garbage can with stuff she didn't want any more. She did real good in giving to good will also. There is a full box of her clothes and stuffed animals. lol
I went through some of the cabinets today and I got rid of about 5 bags of stuff that is old too. This is sort of fun packing to move, but at the same time, I am hurting. My shoulder is hurting and I mean painfully hurting and my back was killing me last night. I can't take a pain pill because they make me sick, so I am going to ask my dr for a different kind when I go on Thursday for the Pap Smear.
I was wondering who or why someone named that test this name. I think it is weird. lol So I looked online and I found this:
"The pap smear, a test for cervical cancer, is named for George N. Papanicolaou, who invented the test." http://www.infoplease.com/askeds/origin-pap-smear.html
So it is named after someone with the name Pap in his last name. Well that solved the mystery didn't it.
Ok going to finish reading my email and then getting dinner ready. Pork steak and potato salad. I know it isn't healthy, but that's what I have.

We got the house! YAY!!
We are so excited. We got the house we looked at on Wednesday. Now we need to purchase a fridge and a washer and gas dryer and a full sized bed or bedrm set. lol
I got the call yesterday while hubby was still at work. The man said our landlady gave us a very good reference and I had to run down to hubby's work (1 block away) and tell him to tell the guy taking his bosses place (boss on vacation) to call the man with a reference. The man told me he got a recording when he called. Anyway, we found out around 4pm central time yesterday.
I am going to start to go through things this evening and tomorrow.
I am ditching anything that is too old I can replace it after we move. :)
I really feel that this was meant for us. What are the odds to find a house for rent in our price range and down the street from where we already live and from his work. I'd guess about 1000-1 or more. lol We have looked and places are going for $800 and more and they don't look as nice as this house does.
I will post pictures when I get them. I plan on taking pics as soon as I get the key in my hand. So I may not post as much while I am packing and then unpacking. I need to transfer the cable/internet and I don't know how long it will take for them to hook us up. That is the only problem I have, I love my computer and my tv and don't want to do without them. :)
