All moved in.

I'm in the new house! No pictures to post yet. The cameras usb cable is burried in some box between the charlie brown xmas tree, outdated design books, and a deflated basketball.

Timing is everything. Here's a story to prove it...

I got wicked lucky today when I was unpacking stuff. I had to run across the street to get something out of my car and I noticed that people were moving things into a uhaul at Lather Salon (they're closing their doors after 4 years in the hair business). The guy came out and asked me if I wanted any furniture but I figured all they had were salon chairs or a pedicure chair or two so I casually declined his offer. I walked back in the house and about an hour later looked out the window and saw AUDRA coming up my walkway! I was so excited that I ran out and met her in the street practically! She told me those guys moving stuff had pretty cool furniture that they were GIVING away! GIVING away!!!!!! Of course I had to go over there to make sure I didn't pass up what I thought would be a 'too good to be true' offer. I made out really well. I walked out of there with 3 cute IKEA bar stools and a large and in charge vertical mirror estimated at $250. Total cost to me: zero dollars!
