No Matter How Things Change...

I have no reason to complain.
This is not a complaint.
But here I go, again.
As the old saying goes, "You can take the monkey out of the jungle but you can't take the jungle out of the monkey."  this saying applies to our brood in spades!  We have definitely improved our digs in this new place but even given the pristine surroundings still  can't get Izzy to stop scribbling with chalk on everything (and i have NO idea where they found this last batch of chalk!) can't get 'em to wipe their feet, or hang up their wet towels, or to learn that the kitchen is not a play place!!
Anyway, our first day in the new place has been a hoot so far!  First, the electrician came in to fix a couple of loose outlets...and fried the entire electrical system for about thirty minutes.  SEEMS the plug had been wired wrong.
Un hunh.
Was working before he came to fix it!
Then the movers arrived to pick up the remainder of the owners belongings.  Or so we thought.
First they were scheduled to be here between 8am and 10am.  Dutifully we woke up at 7.30 (after going to bed at 2.30) and they showed up promptly...at 1.30pm.  Well at least they were going to empty out the boys room so we could get that organized.
NAY NAY!
They were here under the assumption they were "packing" it to be picked up later.  So NOW they will be back at 5 pm to pack and ship.
yea.
So i expect they will arrive around 9.
tomorrow.
And while getting the kitchen set up and clean all the stuff before putting away,,,the faucet broke.
Oh yes!
Good times.  Good times.
ANYWAY!
Little Miss Miranda is back with the family.  Went to pick her up a little bit ago,and she is doing great.  yes she apparently has a milk protein allergy so we now have to feed her some special powder formula that costs about $50.00 a can. But I am thankful that's all it was.  She looks like she gained some weight too, so that's a real plus.  She was quite happy to see mamma as she fell right asleep in her arms, very sweet!  So now our home is whole again.
Well mamma and Elijah are manning the shop today as I am trying to get this all organized.  You never know just how many videos you own until you see them in packing boxes.
52 boxes to be exact.
Sheesh.  I hope for our sake some company continues to manufacture VHS players!
So that's it for now, had to feed Miranda again so I thought I'd drop a line but now she's done and i gotta get back to unpacking!
Seeya!
