(no subject)

I have brought the last load from the apartment to the duplex, and I have turned in keys to the apartment office, and the story I'm sticking to is that I did those tasks in that order *cough*.

We have internet service, and have some degree of cable television available, although I'll be moving the signal to different rooms than the tech left them, I think, before the weekend.

Cell phones are still working, and we'll have a land line up as soon I can can find the base unit.

I expect this shakedown process to last several weeks: I don't wanna unpack boxes until we've arranged the furniture, which I don't wanna do until I've set up the cable jacks, and so forth, but already the cats are enjoying the extra space ...and it's taken Paris more than a week to start agitating to go outside.

Rachal and I are both quite enjoying the ability to sleep in the same bed again, now that we have a different waterbed mattress, and the old leaky one has been retired with extreme prejudice.

I'll post more as it happens, but overall I'm still very optimistic about our new digs, even though I've got a lawn to mow in the near future :>
