Wow...this is going to sound like a broken record...our phone line doesn't work AGAIN! Bell had better give us some compensation this time. It has gone down way too much over the last few months.
So on friday we had our couch delivered....that didn't work out very well. Having never bought furniture before, I didn't know that they are actually supposed to unpack it, check for obvious tears, put the legs on it and put it where you want it! The delivery guys on thursday didn't even try to unpack the loveseat, just left it for me in the middle of the living room so I really didn't know any different! So on friday, the couch was left the same way. When Jake got home, he started ripping the box because I hadn't started yet, and the bottom of the couch is all scuffed and ripped open! What the heck?! He called wondering if we are getting the scratch and dent couches! So they said that we can use it until saturday when another couch will come. We didn't even bother and just left it there upside down, the same way that they left it for us.
On saturday we had 3 delivery people show up. They took the ripped couch, brought a new one, and unpacked it completely, put the legs on it. Then they put the legs on the loveseat too because we said the other guys didn't. What an ordeal. I set everything up like I wanted after I gave everything a good cleaning. We've had stuff all over the place and out of order trying to get this furniture in the door, and dealing with ripped ones right in the middle of the living room! Finally, order is restored.
Friday we set half of the posts for the picket fence, and on saturday we were going to continue with that but Jake's brother Wil called and said that he could come and help with the fascia, so Jake figured that would be best. Jake ripped off all of our old eavestrough and the two of them worked together to finish most of the work. We ran out of supplies so maybe this week we will have to get another roll of fascia and finish. That will really complete the look of the house. My vision is really starting to take shape! I have this dream in my mind of what I want it all to look like, and we are slowly getting there! On friday night we had dinner with our best friends Jess and Tyler. It was quite a long day!
Today it was sortof rainy and neither of us felt like working through the rain, so we decided to go and visit my mom. We went there with one of our puppies Macie and Maggie. We went to my sister's soccer game too and then went for a quick visit to my aunt's house. On the way home we stopped at my Grandma's for a few minutes. Gosh it was a busy day for not wanting to do much! Now we are home and Jake and the doggies are fast asleep. I'm just going to finish editing my mom's website and I'm off to bed too!
I promise, pictures of Fudgie, Storm, Karma and Macie will be put up either monday or tuesday when I take them! Those are the 4 puppies that are here with us now.
