I have joked with some of you that when our furniture actually arrived, you would hear me scream with joy no matter how far away you might be. Well, can you hear me? Our tracking indicated that it had been loaded the first part of the week and then we got a call from the trucker later in the week that he would be delivering it tomorrow (Saturday). He called again today to confirm it. Let the fun begin. In addition, we received confirmation today that we will be having health coverage with Kaiser as of October 1st. Trying to find a clinic which would accept Medicare, or accept new patients was a little discouraging at first and we were able to get on a waiting list with one where they were expecting a new Dr. hopefully by the 1st of the year. So that we put on hold for a few weeks, trying to decide what to do. One more hurdle over now. Having great neighbors here though has been such a blessing. One neighbor loaned us two new lawn chairs and another brought us wood and a wood rack as everyone has fireplaces and there is so much wood here. The same neighbor with the chairs brought us a bottle of wine and most everything else has been an easy transition...just takes time.
Today, with errands to run, we decided to drive to the AM TRACK station. People, as the crow flys, it is 1.6 miles from the house, but it is a 10 minute drive. Isn't it cute? A good many trains come through here also and I still am not used to all of the whistles though. But if anyone wants to take a train trip (you would have to go to CO or UT to board, but) it might be a fun trip. We miss everyone but our phone # hasn't changed so I will try to stay in touch and will welcome news from wherever you are.
