In the new place

I haven't written in a couple days because whatever it was that got me before, got me again. Sunday was busy with packing, shopping, and moving. By the end of the day I was feeling cruddy. Jay stayed home Monday to take care of Kiddo and I ran a slight fever and laid in bed most of the day. Luckily Jay did a good job of taking care of me and I'm back up and running today.

They changed flats on us... We are in the same building but in a different unit. The one we were suppose to get had a LOT more windows. But this one has a balcony so it's sort of a wash. We are pretty much in but still have some clothes to put away. Not exactly sure when our shipment will get here - Jay had to fill out some paperwork which he did this week. We're thinking we'll get the rest of our stuff next week. I'm anxious since I REALLY miss my computer! I think Kahlil is getting tired of his five toys too.

The flat is nice but has a few quirks. I had finally got the washer/dryer figured out at the old place and could do a small load of laundry in about 2 1/2 hours. In the new place it has taken me all day to do one load (and it's still a little damp) and start a second load. I have to get it figured out or Kahlil will be making laundry faster than I can wash it. Another fun thing is that the radiator in the bathroom has no controller and is set fairly warm. It's ok when the bathroom has not been used in a while, but as soon as some body takes a shower it becomes a sauna in there. It also took us a while to figure out how to use the oven. I haven't looked at the stove yet, but I'm not going to assume it will be easy.

The picture of Jay and I is a self-portrait of us standing on O'Connell Bridge over the Liffey on Sunday. Notice the Millennium Spire in the background. Don't worry, my hand is on the stroller where Kahlil is napping. The picture of Kahlil was taken by Jay yesterday when he took Kahlil to the park.

We had broccoli with dinner tonight. Kahlil loved it.
