Have you missed me at all? I closed on my new condominium on December 12, 2008. We quickly shut the Comcast Cable off and had it scheduled to come back into the new location 1 week later. A week passed, the technician came out, and the internet worked... The following day, the internet no longer worked. Comcast Cable Sucks! The Comcast Cable Modem is really terrible. It's RCA brand. After numerous phone calls with tech support, several visits by various techs, and a personal visit to the nearest service center, our internet and cable officially work. Whew!
The condo is in complete disarray. Our apartment lease expired today, so we had several weeks to move things bit by bit. We've painted all the major living areas a very pleasant shade of yellow. Lowe's calls it: Bee Pollen. With increasing and frequent snow storms and a complete lack of internet, it was very hard for me to acquire curtains, appliances, and furniture. We still aren't done with the window coverings. I ordered a new couch from Sam's Club, and the online tracking has yet to tell me when it's going to ship.
With the purchase of a new home right now, the Federal government provides an interest free tax loan (to be paid back in 15 years) of $7500. So, once I get that money, it's going straight into the mortgage savings account. I have a new refrigerator, washer, and dryer all interest free at Lowe's. After their 12 month deal expires, I will pay them off with this money. I'm thinking about using some of the money to buy storage-oriented furniture from Ikea and such. We need pieces that hold items since we're really lacking in storage at the new location.
I would love to post pictures on here, but we just aren't ready to take any. There's boxes and bins throughout every room. We're moving things around bit by bit, but it's hard finding time for anything with the holidays each week.
