Is It Tomorrow Yet?

Wow, thanks everyone, for your comments.... I am so exhausted it isn't funny.  most boxes are unpacked..not all are where they are supposed to go but they are unpacked...except for the multitude of video boxes.. which remain boxed.

If I am not unpacking or unfolding or cleaning something I am out shopping with an old girlfriend (old but younger than me!) for furniture and for a TV and such...  already purchased a used washer and dryer.. and bought other things that will be delivered this week.. a chair to put my fat ass into.. an entertainment center for the livingroom and a sanyo hdtv that will come Friday.  I know I should be thrilled with all this stuff (some new some not so new) but I am nearly physically sick knowing that is all money I could use for rent and food.. and we wont even suggest a book or two! 

There are some things that haven't gone great besides the spending of money I can't replace.  There are 3 things driving me nuts!  Remember, if you will, that I lived in Florida for 13 years before moving away... ok?.. good because in all those years I never saw a home or apartment without a ceiling fan in the living room until I came here!!  Hello?  This is hot steamy weather nearly all the time and no fan!  The second thing driving me insane, if I really have any mind left anyway, is that they put the phone jack in the KITCHEN! so right now I have a telephone wire going from the kitchen clear across the whole livingroom floor to the computer!  But worse than that is having no where IN THE KITCHEN to keep my phone books and pads for the phone and such. (remember this is a SMALL one bedroom apt.)  Ok, and the third thing.. when you walk in the bathroom and flip on the light.. the "odor" fan comes on too.. and there is no way that you can have just a light on without the fan going.  So the entire time you take a bath or brush your teeth  etc.. you have to hear that fan!!

Yep, I know.. you can't please all the people all the time.. and yes, those are complaints!  The maintenance man has already been here twice.. once for a minor thing.. my refrigerator wouldn't go below 60 degrees~  ummmm, don't think I'll go food shopping just yet... and of course that was over the weekend so with no one in the "office" you couldn't get maintenance!.. then there was a tub problem.  The problem was, I'd fill the tub for a bath and even though the plunger thingy was down the water would run out rather quickly!  

Such is life at the old folks home.

Say goodnight Gracie..
