My dryer vent coil thingy won't fit, and the washer has no water. A friend of mine is coming over in the morning to check it out, but I want to do laundry NOW. Of course, nothing is unpacked, but what am I doing?? ON THE COMPUTER!!!!! Hey, we all have our priorities, and LP happens to be one of mine.....now if I could resist the urge to walk to Taco Time I'll be okay.........

How does one misplace a tube of toothpaste?? LOL!!!

So I wisn I could unpack that stuff, but alas, I'm not allowed. I will just be happy to find my toothpaste. And thanks FODD, I can't bear to leave the house, as the snow that is barely falling, might touch my skin and cause me to melt on contact. You see, I am a true Seattle-ite who doesn't leave the house when it's snowing.......

Originally Posted By Ursula Yeah, well I brush my teeth in front of the TV, so what are ya gonna do? Welcome home! Don't eat yellow snow. I hope you really enjoy your new home. What a nice friend, too, to help you with the Ty Room. Cool. Pictures when it's done?
Originally Posted By smedley Woo Hoo, congrats on the move ilvdland, glad it all went well. I too would recommend leaving the unpacking till January if you possibly can, and now you have toothpaste what else could you possibly need?
Originally Posted By ilvdland LOL - thanks Smedley - I just need to at least do the kitchen and get my washer/dryer working, then the rest can wait, I agree. It's sad that the basement is more organized than the main floor.......

Originally Posted By ilvdland LOL Labuda!!

Therefore, NO. I'm not it. Had I known this move was going to be so horrific, I never would have gone to DL so soon.....(I had an awesome Thanksgiving, and I'm not making light of it, I'm just SAYING)

My friend moved house 3 months ago, the old owners had moved out and said that if she couldnt complete the sale within 6 weeks they would put it back on the market (not nice, but they were paying two morgages) So she took the gamble as they had a buyer for their old house anyway, unfortunately the sale fell through , and all these weeks later she is still living in her new house, but most of her furniture is at her old house, as they thought it had more chance of selling furnished! and now SHE is paying two morgages!
