I can't wait! The long drives in the hill country looking for wild flowers, working in the garden...hurry, Spring!

Had a lovely lunch with Ashton and Ebon. Thanks for thinking of me! Next time I won't screw up the order. LOL

It's a gorgeous day out but I'm resting still. Being sick sucks. I may go sit on my patio and read a bit just to get some sunshine though.

That's what I see community as for me.

And, grin, if you want, you can have my car for the day if you need it.

SOLD!!!

We'll take it! The car AND you for a limited time.

*grin*

Thank you so much!

I do have full size truck that can be used.

Fantastic! We don't have a ton of furniture but we do have a lot of boxes and smaller stuff that would fit perfectly in your truck and Arwen's car. We miiiiight even be able to do it in one trip (Oh, I hope, I hope, I hope!). Thank you!

I'd just like to say that, after doing everything on the move down here by myself (I did have help once I GOT here!), it's so incredibly nice to know that that won't be the case this time.

Sniff. Sniff. It's a TRUCK not a car.

Okay. So it's an SUV.

I'll even gas it up.

Chad also texted and offered his truck. It shouldn't take that long because we don't have much furniture but iw will be nice not to have to move the couch by myself this time.

Thanks everyone for offering your help we really do appreciate it.

cinderella · 02-14-2011, 08:58 AM

...to see the commaraderie, and helpful folk here. Ebon & Gemme, you sure are lucky peeps to have 'real' friends. Glad to see y'all stepping up to the plate - warms my heart, truly.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!

Most definitely!

We hated to do it, but we're moving a bit farther North than we anticipated (Pup and Oiler should be concerned). We were looking for one place but the instructions I printed out from mapquest (I know, I KNOOOOOWWW) were wrong (surprise!) and we found ourselves in a new to us area. We started going down our list of other potential places that were close to there. Where we wound up was halfway down the list but the first place we made it to on that particular day. We knew as soon as we looked that it was spectacular. It was meant to be!

No can do on the move, as You know.....I'll be lovingly preparing a nutritious feast for You later on in the day. Sustenance for the movers, birthday cake for me! Ok, ok, I'll share....

Actually, I'll be participating in the Pedi~Party. I blame The Berry (wanton hussy!). Then Sam Moon. I shall blame The Berry once more. Did I mention she is a wanton hussy?

Happy moving! The next time *I* move, someone will be carrying my urn.
Jus' sayin'......

He's very handy. He isn't cussing yet either.

Apparently the former owners installed the tile AFTER installing the dishwasher.

You were talking and then I heard 'cake' and that's all I heard.

*grin*

We may be sore and tired, but we'll be there! Can't have you celebrating without us, can we?

No jobs here. It took Gemme quite a few months to find a job and I know some other folks still looking.

I would suggest trying Indeed again; I typed in Medical Assistant within 25 miles of Austin and the results were several pages of jobs. Not sure if there is something in particular you might be looking for, but the medical field seems to be fairly strong here. Just my .02
