As of Late

It has been insane lately. My folks have moved to Cardwell, they lived in a house down the road for 2 weeks, for a trial run - you know just to see how they would like living out here. Anyways they got the boot from the place they were staying (no fault of their own by the way ;o).
They then moved in with us with the intent of getting a trailer of their own and moving it in on the property. After 2 days of living with me (us), my dad and I went and looked for a trailer for 'em. Thankfully we found a house that night, we were the first ones ever to look at this one house. It was 93 double wide, mobile home. It was in fairly good USED shape - the price was right, so we did not hesitate. That was a Thursday, they told us we would have the house here by the next week. It arrived on the following Tuesday.
It arriving was just the middle of a long ordeal. The beginning was all the phone calls to the utilities, to a contractor to help with the dirt moving & set up. Found out from the power company that we could not put the house were we originally thinking. Moving the location meant a move in the water lines, power lines, septic lines and t.v. stuff. SIGH---- it just kept coming. Well we got that done, the house arrived on Tuesday. They took 2 days to set up the house. My mom was sooooooo thankful to be off my couch and into her bed. Despite the fact that there was not water at the house - she still stayed, as I said she was sick of my couch.
I have spent the last week, helping my folks try and get thing figured out. Turning water on is a big deal, you find all the leaks, broken pipes and unlevel items. Turning the heat on we find out that the thermostat is broken and does not control anything. The only thing that went with out much of hassle was the electric, thank freakin' goodness. I dont know if I could have handled it......I would have screamed.
We still have not gotten out of the clear, I got 1 pipe that leaks still. Deal with it next week. Need to clean bathrooms and window sills. But it is good to have them nearby, nice to be able to help them and know that I can take care of them if I need to.
All of this on top of my normal ranch stuff, kid stuff ( oldest went back to school this week ) & most important of all being a wife. Things can only slow down from here, they have too. Right???
