We have moved!!!

We have finally moved into our new home. There are still some boxes to be unpacked, but at least we are living there. We have already had a couple adventures in our new home, and we haven't even been there a week yet.

A couple days after we closed, we went and bought a refrigerator. We got a great deal on one of the floor models and it was delivered and installed a couple days later. We go to the house in a few days and the refrigerator is not cold and the freezer has not made any ice. So, we call the repair man since we have the warranty on it. He finds that the compressor has quit working and a new one needs to be ordered. It was finally repaired on this past Tuesday, so we did not have a working refrigerator for the first 4 days we were there.

Last night, one of the toilets clogged so we thought Lance had used too much toilet paper. Mike gets the plunger and the snake and it seems to not be clogged. When the toilets upstairs were flushed, the one downstairs would overflow. Then, we had the towels in the wash and when the washer drained, we had sewage coming out of the toilet downstairs. GROSS!!!! Luckily we have a home warranty, so we called them up and they sent out a plumber today to look at it. Apparently there was something big clogging the main sewer line to the house, but they were able to clear it. So now we have working plumbing again.

We also do not have the internet or cable right now because our street isn't on Comcast's maps, but we are being very pushy to have them come take care of it since it is roughed in, they just need to pull the cable. Since we don't know when we will have the internet again, it may be a while before we can do another update, but maybe next time we will have some pictures to post of the house.
