more nights to go, and it won't be over soon enough!!! The RV has fire ants now!!! I've been awakened the past two nights by getting bitten by the nasty little buggers!!! Thing is, out of our whole family, I'm the most tasty I guess....and the one who has the worst reactions to them too!!! They swell up really big on me and itch for weeks! (I had a couple in my pajama pants last night!!! UGH!) I used to get hives from them, or have my whole foot/hand/whatever swell up really bad, so at least it's not like that any more!!!
So yeah, the electricity for our new place should be on by now. They're going to pressure wash the outside, do the yardwork super good, and have someone come in and clean the inside super good too. We'll be in on Friday night with furniture to follow at a later date. LOL (Probably another week for that, but we'll manage....at least there won't be fire ants!!!) We did find out that the sofa they're leaving for us is a sleeper sofa, so that's good. Also, we have the sleeping bags, and they're also leaving a recliner....it shouldn't be too uncomfortable of a week. (Better than Elisabeth and one parent sleeping on the "bed" that is the sofa in the RV.)
We met with a pastor and his family last night for dinner. He just recently moved to the area and is working on a church plant, but doesn't want it to be "cookie cutter contemporary". It sounds pretty good, and we're interested in learning more and getting to know him and his family. His oldest daughter (of 4) is in Kindergarten, and Elisabeth got along really well with her and the second oldest. We haven't figured out what we're going to do "church-wise" yet, so we're looking at all of the options. It will be nice to get settled into our home and be able to have a regular schedule (not driving so far and stuff), and then we can start being better at family time and things like we used to do.
I've got to quit typing so I can go scratch these incessantly itching ant bites!!! UGH!
