Hey there,
making this one quick, becasue I really dont feel like posting:
1. First couple of weeks at the house are going well. Got 85% of everything unpacked.
2. Bought a garage door, got ADT security, the Washer and Dryer come Thursday.
3. I will probably be in Wisconsin this Friday, the 9th, if anyone would like to hang out.
4. At the closing of our house, we didn’t get a mail key (group mailboxes). The post office, the closer, the home builder and the sales people can’t seem to find it. So, we have to have our mail HELD at the post office. Which means we have to drive 14 miles and wait in line up to 45 minutes every time we need to get mail. Plus, since we didn’t know who had the key, we didn’t put the mail on hold for a week. Because of that, we have no idea how much mail is waiting for us in the box that we can’t unlock.
5. Back to work tomorrow.
6. Bought 100$ worth of fireworks, but there were storms last night, so we couldn’t set them off. I was the only one who could buy the ‘fun ones’ because they are illegal to be sold to Colorado residents, and I have a WI ID.
7. Another brother got in touch with me yesterday, and it wasn’t fun. What I thought was starting as a very casual conversation turned accusatory and instigative. I am not going to go into details on this one, but I will say this: The original contact from him was a single, broken sentence. I responded in kind, with a complete, yet equally simple statement. From that spawned comments in reply that were not appropriate. I am hoping that his most recent reply from my lengthy retort will clear the air, but I do not have high expectations. I have a sour taste from the whole thing, and I will have to work on changing that mind set.
