At Last - A Connection To The World!

It has been 13 days since my last connection with the world wide web!  Thirteen days of endless country music radio station music playing the same top 20 songs over and over and over.  I honestly believe if I hear Taylor Swift complain about her mean boyfriend one more time - I may just have to visit her in Hendersonville and explain to her that no one really cares!!!  Please don't get me wrong, I really like all genres of music, including country/western music.  However, there is a limit to how many times you can listen to the same songs over and over again.  It seems that we live in a very limited radio wave environment.  Not only am I limited on the radio stations I can pull in, but, my Verizon cell phone is dropping my calls right and left. 

The Verizon customer service recorded response to my dropped calls inquiry is 'Please hang up and call back on a land line phone'.  So, how does a person report their cell phone problem when they do not own a land line?  Good question, for which my only answer is to give-in and add a land line.  So, two steps forward, one step back.  The more this world becomes technically savvy - the more we must resort to the ways of the past.

Well, back to the new house and the move.  We have completed the move from our rental house in Cadiz.  I have just about finished unpacking my boxes, perhaps there is 2 or 3 left sitting in the spare bedroom.  The kicker here is that Tim will be hauling all of our stored possessions from NE down here this weekend.  This would include all of my cherished 'hand-me-downs' from my loving family members that are no longer with us.  I am so excited to see these missing items that have been out of my sight for nearly 5 years.  It will be like Christmas morning and a free shopping spree all in one!!!  Just not real sure where I will be storing all of my treasures . . .

I will be posting pictures of the inside of the house next.  It will be a sort of before/after blog, I hope.  There is a definite lack of color in this house.  And the one thing I must have in my life is plenty of color!  Bold and 'in yo face' types of color!  I have a LOT of painting to do and a little remodeling of a few things here and there.  The great thing about this home is that it is built well and arranged well.  So, hopefully the few changes I have in mind will be a breeze to complete. 

So . . .  stay tuned!!

Speaking of radio hell, Canada has a law that a certain percentage of music played on the radio must be from Canadian artists. I imagine Celine dion and nickelback playing all day long as the mental institutions continue to accept new patients at an alarming rate!

Cant wait to see the new digs! Enjoy decorating and shopping through your own stuff!
