So I ring the doorbell, go inside, and tell him I am with the Villages Painting department and wanted to see his painting permits and I was looking for a missing lawn chair. His eyes got as big as saucers until I started laughing. Like I said, I don't think I'll get invited back.

P.S. . . . . Good luck with your appliance delivery tomorrow Teryl
Strange that I don't quite have the same recollection :
Actually I spotted A4 a mile away and knew my sanity was soon to be tested, but somehow his skill and cunning still resulted in my paying for a painting permit.

Default Almost there!

Truck is packed like a sardine can! Hope there's room for me! IMHO we are leaving in the middle of the night, but it can't be soon enough for my husband!
Weather is supposed to be rather nasty tonight - high wind and flooding and a full moon - not what I like to hear - so I hope it pushes through quickly so we can safely be on our way.
Safe travels chiefrose and Yankee Quilter! Can't wait to see and meet everyone and start settling in!

Safe travels to all. Be safe and get here so we can all meet up again!

We have been our home one week now. I can't believe how fast the time goes. You will all be here soon. Gayle and Mike
