Now that I am on the mend, it's Ian's turn. He woke up this morning, sick. It takes a lot for Ian to not want to run, or work out at all. I did managed to get some lunch and Motrin into him. Let's see if he keeps it down.
While he was resting, the boys and I ventured out yet again to sign paperwork. I think I have signed more paperwork this week, then required to buy a house, and car. Everyone is set up for next week. I still need to have the hospital sign off on paperwork saying that Peyton is not contagious.
Still on the agenda is the cable company, setting up our phone, and I need a PO Box. I am sure there is something I am forgetting to do. It will come to me once we have moved in, and by then I am sure it will be important.
The poor cleaning lady is having a field day with us. She can not clean the sheets or towels. Really thought she seemed OK with all of this, until she arrived today and smelled our onion! We bought it 3 days ago and WOW is it potent. I can smell it down the hall. I have it double bagged in a Ziploc, and it's not really helping. I get the impression she is ready for us to leave, so she can properly clean this room.
I get to spend my afternoon labeling all of Peyton's things he will need for the CDC.. On military bases all children under the age 5 are quarantine... Hence the CDC.. ha, ha,. No, CDC stands for Child Development Center. He will get to spend a couple of days there next week, playing with all the other kids.. I think he will also go for 2 days when they deliver our house hold goods. I am still working all of that out.
Other than that we are plugging right along. 13 days and counting until we are out of this hotel. When we first begin a move all of us are excited. We look at it like an adventure. Staying in a new hotel, swimming in the pool, and adventuring out to explore. Now that I am more then 8 weeks into this transition I am so ready for it to be over. At this point I just want to sleep in my own bed! Oh, yeah, we didn't ship our bed. So now what??

Um... New bed? :o)
What's up with the onion? I missed something somewhere...
I can see that living in a hotel would seem good . . . for awhile.
Good luck settling in. And with the bed.
I was raised on Air Force bases all over the place. I totally understand what you're saying, the initial excitement about the move and then how it just gets tiring. Hotels are only thrilling for the first few days.
terrie
I'm glad there are no diseases invloved - LOL. I was sure there was a reasonable explanation.
I hope Ian is feeling better quickly!
And i join Mother Mayhem in asking "What's the deal with the onion?"

Sorry to hear hubby is sick. Mine is sick as well...it's going around the boat...Glad your hubby is home to recover and not on the boat.
Maybe I will see you before I leave.
If not, then have a great time in AOB and the move. Let me know about the vehicle and if you still need to use mine.
Hey there, thank you for stopping by, sorry it has taking me a few days to pop in-- How long will you be in Japan for? (what part)?
