We were told the cable company would be here between 4 and 7 p.m. to hook up the internet, so I figured that meant we would be waiting at almost 8 p.m. wondering where the heck he was, but he got here just before 5 p.m!

He was really thorough and even left me a USB wireless adapter so it would be easier for the computer to access the internet given one of the two cable jacks is up in the loft area, and we would have had to run a cat5 cable from the loft through the stairs and down and it would have looked ugly. That was really cool of him.

We’re all exhausted, of course, but the munchkin settled down really well considering it’s his first night in a strange house, but we made sure that the stop sign came in the first truck load so that was up in his room right away so that things would look as familiar as possible.

It’s going to be a lonely first night for me, though because hubbie’s on duty. I’m torn I want to get everything out and up and away but I’m tired and want to go to bed too…

We have to give huge thanks to our friend Jer who came over to help even though he’s suffering from a cold and got most of the truck loaded given our movers were delayed by a burst water main, and my Mum who brought breakfast and stayed until 9 p.m. so that we could get the munchkin’s crib in as it was too wide for the door into his room and had to be dismantled and reassembled.

We still have stuff to get from the other place and the whole thing to clean from top to bottom before we can turn the keys in BUT all the big stuff is in, and I put up a little bit of decorations. I’ll post some pics tomorrow.
