A Bloy and his Blog

I’ve been living in my new home for five days now. There is a lot of work to be done, but I’m slowly getting settled in.

In the past four days I’ve made seven trips to a home improvement / hardware store, with still more things on my shopping list to pick up. I’m expecting the clerks to start greeting me by name soon. I already have people working on my kitchen remodel, which is something I want to get done fairly soon. The house is definitely a fixer-upper, but it’s going to be real nice once the fixing up is done.

Probably the most frustrating part of this move is the fact that I still don’t have internet access at the house yet. Since the phone company is having some problems (and I’ll be getting DSL through the the phone line), I’ve been suffering from serious internet withdrawal. Hopefully I’ll be plugged back into the matrix soon.

While I was eating lunch at the café today, trying not to let the dreary weather bring my mood down, I noticed water drops forming on the plants from all the mist in the air.
