Arizona Keeping Us Busy

Zoey the night we arrived.  Doug is in the background with a knit hat - you would think it was cold!
We arrived in Arizona last Thursday night.  We have been on the move ever since trying to get ready to move into our place.  We spend too much time waiting at the house for the service people to arrive.  We thought we would be able to move in Monday as we had the tile and grout, carpet and air duct cleaners all scheduled for Monday.  The tile and grout cleaners were first and when they left the grout was still wet so hard to tell if it was clean (I am presently waiting for them to come back as it is far from clean).  The air duct cleaner came and they were also supposed to clean the carpets but that was obviously a come on as he said we really don't clean carpets - more like just a good vacuum.  So I had him clean the dryer vent because that is what he really wanted to do.  So I found a carpet cleaner who could come Tuesday.

Monday evening we went our for dinner for Eileen's birthday and Heidi made her delicious cup cakes for Eileen's birthday cake.

Tuesday after the carpet cleaner was done we were able to again look for a bed and furniture.  We finally ordered a bed which could be delivered today.  We also bought dressers and a table and chairs from IKEA which I put together last night.  The bed was delivered and set up so we will be in our own home tonight.  We sure are enjoying the weather. Even though it is in the 40's to 50's it beats the snow and below freezing temperatures in Minnesota.

The dining table will seat 6 - this is just extra as we couldn't get the big one in the car.
