Well we are settled into our new retirement home, in beautiful Williamsburg, VA. We have a couple of tasks still outstanding, but one major pair will be completed before the weekend. A new bed with the ability for each sleeper to have their mattress positions in the most comfortable arrangement that suits their sleep habits and a dining table with matching chairs will be arriving tomorrow, Friday, January 31st.
But today, we will have two men from a company called College Hunks coming to do some rearranging for us in preparation for the arrival of the new bed. They will be moving a bed and chest of drawers from one of the upstairs bedrooms to the smaller of the two, and then moving our bed from the master bedroom on the first floor to the larger of the upstairs bedrooms. This is in preparation for the delivery of the new numbers bed arriving tomorrow.
We will also ask these young men to move out large SONY tv from the ground floor up to Char’s office area on the second floor. We were having some problems with connectivity for our television networks (we stream for a couple of services) and would up buying another large tv for the Great Room. Since our house is wired for whole house wireless internet connectivity, Char will have the ability of using the older TV upstairs in her loft office to catch news and other items of interest.
So this week, we will have been able to conclude a couple more tasks on our settling in checklist. Starting to get to the end!
Big Red, our new GMC Terrain SUV has been able to easily traverse the streets during our recent snow storms (not much of a storm, but we did get accumulations). Glad we paid the extra for the All Wheel Drive version.
Short Note: I just read an article about several of the right winger GOP Attorneys General attempting to force the new Trump assault on hiring practices for companies, this instance, on COSTCO. Trump and his political hack minions are attempting to reverse legislation established under the previous congress’ for diversity, equality, inclusion in our nation. This is actually an attempt by Trump and company to remove the ability of companies to act in their own interest regarding staffing their company facilities. In this instance, however, turned out the CEO and Board of COSTCO basically told Trump and his wrecking crew to go pound sand. Good for them and renews my faith in that business. We have been members of COSTCO for several Decades and enjoy shopping for necessities (of course we usually buy things in addition to what we started looking for) there.
It doesn’t surprise me in the least that the bigoted South African Musk is behind this blatant attempt to force the companies to bend to the will of the Fuhrer Trump and his burgeoning gang of ChristoFascist/Fascist authoritarian enablers that make up the once decent political party of Republicans.
