Dear Reader,
we did not move in today, after all. We waited and waited for the movers ... what am I saying? My husband waited and waited. I slept and slept. I literally slept around 14 hours last night! I woke up around 1:30 and found out that my husband had been waiting for them at the house, but they never showed up. So, I texted them and found out they had just crossed into Pennsylvania and would be here tomorrow. When I said that we were supposed to,have moved in on the 1st, today, they called me. The driver was perplexed and said, "Oh! No, we don't do move-ins on Sundays!" I stayed very ... well, just quiet and didn't really say much. There was no point in getting upset with him. This is the regional manager's and local supervisor's fault. I just kept thinking to myself, "I will not have a stroke. I will not have a stroke!"
Looking at the bright side, we had a really nice day. We walled through the house and made decisions about where things will go. We had sushi for lunch and then went to a nice place for dinner. Came to the hotel and watched some Office episodes and called it a night. They say they will be at the house between 8:30 and 9:00 tomorrow. I don't believe it for a moment, but well be there waiting for,them, I'm sure.
It's prettier than I dreamed here. I hadn't been here when things were green before, so this was a wonderful surprise. Our backyard feels like the woods! All those neat sounds you hear when you go camping or something
I spent some time in the miserable hotel bathtub looking up doctors and chiropractors in the area. I found an integrated medicine doctor who is local, closer than the other one, and sounds very well-trained and specializes in immuno-compromised people ... which would be me!
Have I told you about my mercury test results yet? I don't think so. They are super high. My doctor says he has never seen a test result so high in all his years of practice. And, remember, he only sees people with strange health problems. I don't eat that much fish and, when I do, I usually have catfish or tilapia or shrimp; all of which are in the low-mercury lists. I was trying to learn about chelation therapy today which is something they do to remove heavy metals from your body. Sounds like it is NOT a good idea! I gather there are some natural therapies to remove them that don't involve injecting you with chemicals. But, I read that you may develop high heavy-metal levels if you are low in glucosamine. Now, who wants to lay a little wager that I am not just low, but crazy-low in glucosamine??? But, is that the right thing? Nope. It's glutathamine that I read about.
So, I'm going to go to bed and try to go to sleep. It will be hard knowing I have to get up early. To help with the movers I put up big signs on each room, saying what they are. And then, on all the floors, I put notes saying where the large pieces of furniture go; hoping to cut down on the "where do you want this?", "where does this go?" and all the running up and down stairs showing them. I bet, though, that it doesn't do a bit of good.
I can't begin to tell you how much I feel at home here already. I love, love, love it! I told my husband I was made to live here. He laughed and said, "So she says in the summer!"
That's it for tonight. Have a good day tomorrow and think about us. However bad your day may be tomorrow, mine is probably worse! Let that comfort you tomorrow!!!
Lisa
