It’s Official: We Are Moving

September 1, 2008 by Michelle Waters 

After some confusion earlier this month, it is now official that we’re moving. We’ve packed up books in my office that I don’t have to have and are going to move them into storage for now. Since we’re moving in town and have an entire month to carry out this move, we’ll be taking our time.

The first thing we did after we signed the papers, is get the electricity turned on at the new house. We have a well and the house is all electric, so that’s the only utility we needed to worry about.

I waited at the house for a couple of hours on Thursday, so I would be there when the guy from the electric company showed up. I had to make sure that no faucets were left on when the electricity was turned off. Good think, too. A faucet in the bathroom sink in the shop was on.

I spent today at the house cleaning counters, vacuuming and doing general stuff like that in preparation for moving our stuff.

Next week, we’ll be contacting @link Wifi to find out how tall our pole will need to be to get Internet service from them. We’ll also move our phone service to the new house closer to the middle of the month.

My husband will also be purchasing some equipment from the phone company that will boost our cellphone signals. He told me that, with this equipment, everything in the house would have five bars.

I asked him, “Even the dogs?” hehe

    Moving is both exciting and a pain in the doodah so I hope you will find the fun in all this! Best of luck with a smooth move.
