new and improved??? . . . well . . .


Yes, we now have a DIFFERENT internet set up, but better???? Not sure on that one. It now only works in one place in the house . . . on top of our very large oversized dresser in the living room. You must stand up to use it as the height of the VERY LARGE OVERSIZED dresser is too tall for the ordinary chair. Why is the VERY LARGE OVERSIZED dresser in the living room???? Because it is soooo big it won’t fit through the door of the bedroom for which it was intended. Why do we have such a big dresser? Because we have a disease called, “acquire furniture too big to fit comfortably in your house.” We’ve had this disease since we lived in our very small 800 sq ft domicile in Pueblo, CO. There, we bought furniture so large that when it came time to sell the house, the real estate agent suggested we move a few pieces out to help sell the structure. She must have known something because the house sold in 7 days.

Once we move into our new house, the dresser will fit in our bedroom. Mostly because it is a straight shot from the VERY LARGE front door, down the WIDE hallway to the BIG door of our bedroom. And the house is scheduled to be ready to move into in 4 weeks. YEP, just like Chinese food is always ready in “10 minute”, our house is perpetually ready in “4 weeks.” I’ll believe it when I’m moving boxes and VERY LARGE furniture. And, hopefully, in our new larger domicile, our furniture will fit comfortably and our internet will work in more than one place in the abode.

But that very large furniture fit perfectly in your new house and was beautiful and comfortable and one could sleep very nicely. Sorry i missed your call today, Romaine and i were visiting uncle orval. The nurse said he missed us when we were in Malibu, watched for us every day. I, of course, knew it all along, but any one of the four of you is a commediene all to yourself. I laughed and laughed at your post today.

Not only does it only work in just one place, but it is UP less than it used to be as well. It took me a whole day to finally get this blog posted, so consider yourself lucky to have read ANYTHING funny from me AT ALL . . geez :)

i feel like that would be something that would hapen here in la esperanza. maybe you should get like a bar stool set up no cinder blocks and open a cafe internet in your house. you could serve [tall[ lattes. haha...

oh, and about your house being done, it also reminds of the money pit movie, how their house was always going to be ready in 2 weeks.
