There is also a site out there. (Taryn knows it.) That has people putting their stuff up to give away for free in your local area. it's cool, and the stuff isn't always in bad condition.

Thanks, Bruddah. I got that CraigsList site off of her last week I think (?) And looked, and not a whole lot that I'm getting responses on.  I'll be looking in the paper (and checking out Salvation Army despite not wanting to go there) to see if we perhaps can find something there.  Let's hope!

OH, i know what Master Tegutai means, look up freecycle, and find a local group.
"He is Master and i am slave. He is owner and i am owned. He is to be pleased and i am to please. Why is this? Because He is Master and i am slave."

Well.  I do want to move, I just don't want to move all of the crap I have accumulated.  Three dressers, a bed, a futon, a tv stand, a t.v a computer desk....-murfs- this sucks.  Oh wait.  I'll be at work when Beau gets to move all that stuff.  What am I worried about?! -dances-

Phone/DSL will be turned on by Friday.  Which works, little to not interruption for us, maybe a day or so.  Please don't let me go nuts in that period of time. -grunts-

Trust me, you'll be too busy moving in to be bored and 'net withdrawn!

I work the next three days.  We don't have a truck available to us to move anything really until Sunday.  I mean..we could move the bed, the computer, the dresser, but everything that was left when we moved from here to Iowa the last time, will have to wait for a truck that is more available than a friends truck that needs to stay here in Litchfield, compared to driving the 30 miles to get to Girard (which means no computer desk, no microwave)  Oh well.  At least we have a vcr and dvd player, and our play station on a crappy t.v that cuts in and out with sound....better than nothing for the moment.

Missing Tonight and possibly tomorrow

Uhmmm.  I suppose my phone is hooked up...but we're not sure the dsl is turned on.  And we're moving and spending our first night in our apartment tonight.  So I probably won't be on until after Midnight tomorrow night.  Sorry if this inconveniences anyone.  When the dsl gets turned on..my typing will prolly be crap..considering we don't have a desk yet -lol- that won't arrive until Sunday..so will be on the floor. -makes a face- just what I need.. a three mile bike ride, and then sitting on the floor to further make my butt hurt.  See you all Friday night or Saturday!

No inconvenience, except to you - RT always comes first!

And I understand all about jury-rigged typing situations.  My first desk in my first just-the-two-of-us type place was a couple of milk crates and a sheet of plywood, with my assbone being worn away to a nub by a hard plastic chair.  It was SEX-ee, let me tell you!

Oye...vey.  Apparently.  When they say Friday.  They mean the following Monday.  The phone tech was just here, toned the line, and now I have dsl. -murfs- Went the whole of the weekend without DSL, or a phone, or any kind of contact to the outside world.  We have all of our stuff, and but more bad news in the chapter of my life.  I knew something was going to go wrong.  Apparently, one of the places we had our stuff stored at, had a roof leak.  All of our stuff there was destroyed, or sold off or one of "Beaus friends" came and picked it up.  Which sucks, because our microwave was in there.  We need a microwave.  Badly.  And Beau's grandfathers recliner was in there.  That was special to him -even if it was ugly-. -sighs- Oh well.  At least things are looking up.  We have everything we needed to move, but more expenses coming our way with having to buy a microwave, and pots and pans so we can cook our food.  Ive bought a frying pan and a pot, but that's not enough to cook actual dinner.  Maybe mac n cheese and some grilled cheese (since that's all we have for food right now).  We will eventually have a normal life again.  I swear! -lol- But anyway, sorry for the worry I caused by not appearing on Friday like I had originally said. -s-

Love you all!
