Bell phone home....

So it’s time for me to update the blog. I would have done it sooner but we have been without a telephone line/internet since Thursday of last week. Will see if we have a dial tone when we get home tonight.

ANYWAY,

Will cover everything in point form just to shorten then telling:

Tom P., our electrician, came to the house and got the heater in the Mater Bedroom installed. Also, found out that the nice ceiling fan in the Master Bedroom was badly done and took it out.

Phone was cut on Thursday morning

Bell Expressview guys show up on time and are GREAT! We now have tv.

Carpet was due to arrive at 10 am, no show, nothing, nadda. Am told at 4:30pm that they had had truck troubles. Fuck you very much.

No phone as of Thursday evening.

Carpet sales guy drives out the laminate that night so that my dad and uncle can install it tomorrow and says the transition pieces are coming with the carpet tomorrow.

Carpet gets installed Friday morning, different carpet installed in the master bedroom, don’t mind too much because it’s a better one.

Carpet guys didn’t bring the transition pieces for the laminate, cue me driving to Perth to pick them up.

Get them back to the house and they are still the wrong pieces. Sales guy will bring them by sometime early next week.

Dad and uncle install the floor over the course of the day.

J and I start packing stuff into the truck and get two truck loads to the house Friday night.

First night of sleep at the house with the boy, J and I. Still no phone.

7am Insulation guys show up on time and finish within quote. GREAT GUYS! J

Movers are a hour late but are overall wonderful. For 6 hours work and $559 all our furniture is moved in.

Saturday night, still no phone.

Sunday is unpacking and bringing 4 car loads of loose stuff to the house. Big Thanks to Jeff for helping.

Sunday was getting the TV’s and entertainment units put together and working. Most of the kitchen is unpacked as well.

Sunday night, me freaking out at Bell about still not having a phone. They tell me they switched software and that 3000 other people are in the same boat. Ask me if I care, GIVE ME MY PHONE!!!!!

Monday, back to work, Ryan with yet another back up because S couldn’t take him this week. Siraj is great but Ryan has a massive freak out over being left with a stranger. Will not take him there for the rest of the week until Samira is back on Thursday.

Quoter for the Seamless Eaves troughs coming tonight at 5pm.

I want my phone.
