Pictures…

Still no pictures to post yet between doing all the painting and everything and cleanup involved with it, then having to do regular preventative cleaning (dishes, etc.) I haven’t tidied up enough that I’d want to take pictures. I did finish up another of the bathrooms so only the master is left to be painted. We finally got trash service too which is good because we’re being bad neighbors and letting it pile up in the back of the house. I wouldn’t feel so bad if we had a fence. Trash service is expensive! This is a first for us since we’ve always lived in apartments. Because Stafford is smaller (about 100,000) it was hard to find trash service. There were only 2 companies – Waste Management and Schifflett’s. All the others I tried calling either didn’t do residential service, didn’t do this area or were out of business (disconnected numbers). We ended up going with Schifflett’s since it’s gonna save us quite a bit and we’re spared the activation charges (it’s not a phone), delivery fee for the trash can, $75 for boxes through WM and the fuel surcharge fee (based on the price of diesel). I’m trying to get Rachel out here tomorrow to take me to the dump (she has a trailer) so on Friday I’m not blocking the *entire* sidewalk with bags and boxes but we’ll see I guess I can always ration the trash. Time for bed, 6:00 comes early especially when you don’t go back to bed because there’s too much else to do.
