Ok thanks to a weekend of hectic dashing here, there and everywhere I now not only have a house, but a new sofa so people will have a comfy place to sit in said house, and some of the little necessities (like a garden hose). I've also managed to take most of my clothing over and hang it neatly in one of my three closets. The walk-in in my bedroom could probably easily accommodate everything, but I like keeping my costumes separate.

My new garden is, well a mess, but I'm downright itching to get my hands on it. Indeed Sunday may well be devoted to nothing but puttering around outside.

Oh the plans I have...

Anyway, I've got a mover coming at 9:30 a.m. on Friday and Aelf is going to give me a hand with keeping the cats calm while I'm directing the whole thing and finishing up any last minute stuff. Then I'll need to run over to Comcast and drop off all my equipment. DirecTV will be coming to install my new satellite dish on Saturday morning between 8 and 12, and I just ordered DSL from AT&T which is only $19.99 a month. I'll need to go get a DSL modem at an AT&T store, but by midnight of Saturday I should have TV and 'Net and that's not too bad.

Now I do have one request for locals, would anybody be willing to lend a hand on cleaning up the old apartment Saturday afternoon? I don't think it'll take long, and I will be happy to supply pizza for those kind enough to help out. Let me know if you're game and I'll give you the details.

Oh and does anybody local have a ladder I might borrow? I have a whole lot of painting to do and gods help me the pink bathroom's ceiling has even been painted...

I might still have a DSL modem you can use. I might also be able to help out Saturday afternoon. :)

No ladder though.

Yay house!!!!!!!! When's the painting party?

Ooh, if you do have a DSL modem that would be cool, if not I can easily pick one up, though so no worries. As for Saturday, you'd be more than welcome. And finally, ladder first then painting party :)

I am all yours on Saturday--do with me what you will.

I'm holding you to that, and thank you, dear!

My ladders are all "get up on the roof" type ladders. Some paint rollers will attach themselves nicely to broomsticks if you have a broom that the handle will unscrew from. :)

The painting thing I think I could do without a ladder, but I've got to put tape down along the ceiling/wall and around lighting units so I'm definitely going to need a ladder. Thanks anyway, though!

How wonderful, how exciting! I wish I could lend a hand. Would you consider sharing some photos when it's all spiffed up and ready?

[ebonlock.livejournal.com]

Photos will definitely be shared just as soon as I unpack my camera :)

I have a ladder, though it's a bit rickety. I think it will fit in my car. If no one else has one, I could try a hand at bringing it down Saturday morning...

Missed you at the free Oakland party, but it was fun and I'm glad you tipped me over into going. :)

I might just take you up on that, thanks!

You're on my calendar. What time do you want us to show? Liz will just be lending moral support, of course.

You should have email regarding this very thing in your inbox.

Wish we could be there to help! I expect many pictures of your progress de-pinking your new home!
