View Full Version : I can finally stop camping!

Well....I've been up here in Bellevue, WA for about 1 1/2 weeks now, but my stuff was not here. I only had the few things (clothes mostly) that I brought with me. I got this house, but I feel like I've been camping in it with nothing to fill it. I bought an air mattress, one cheap sheet, one cheap blanket, one cheap chair (those portable fold out canvas camping type chairs). That's basically all I've had for 1 1/2 weeks.

Finally the movers came today and I have all my stuff again. Thank God I can stop camping....sleep in a REAL bed.....not just a real bed, but MY OWN bed. :D God....it's been weeks since I've slept on my own bed.

I finally have pots and pans to cook in....no more cold food. I have my couch and love seat....e.g. comfortable seating.

It's so nice to not be camping anymore. :D

When we moved to Costa Rica our stuff was shipped via boat - took about a month to get here. We lived out of suitcases until they arrived. I know how you feel there bud. Then, it took a while to buy enough stuff since it didn't make sense to ship furniture and things.

So now you can put out that fire you built in the middle of your livingroom?

(Don't forget the "walk around the block" with the dogs, KT - and to update the ID tags...) ;)

I just looked outside my office. It is now sunny, with a clear blue sky, slight breeze and 64 degrees. I will go for a ride when I get home.

I still remember your advice on that from the LAST time I moved (locally back in Clearwater, FL).

I will update the tags soon....funny story about that. I went to the dog park here (it's a HUGE dog park....I think it's like 40 acres) on my 1st night. It's so big that Ammo got away from me playing around and I couldn't find him. I was beginning to get worried as dark was only about an hour away. I finally get a call from somebody very hesitantly saying, "Hi....I found your dog....in a park....in WASHINGTON". He apparently thought the dog got lost and made his way from Clearwater, FL to Bellevue, WA. It was pretty funny.

I went to the cheesecake factory there in Bellevue. It was pretty good.

I never even went to a Cheesecake factory in Florida. I doubt I'll hit this one. LOL

Update those dogtags asap. Because of who I am, I have had stray cats come up to me with out of date tags many times. You are lucky your phone number works. It can be a devil of a time trying to reunite a cat and owner.
Congrats on the move btw.
