Got a call today and found out we can't move in until Monday. Something about the money clearing in the bank. So, we are going to meet the agent at the house at 9:00 am on Monday. Kind of stinks as we are really looking forward to getting out of here. I guess one more weekend is fine.
Teri went to play group with my coworker's wife Rebecca and had fun. Makenna was pretty good. Apparently, she had Teri in stitches because Makenna was trying to sit down on this bucket to eat her cookie and every time she would step back as she was starting to sit and kick the bucket back. She kept on doing this and did this squating backwards walk, always catching her self as she kicked the bucket back out from under herself. Pretty funny.
Other than that, it was a pretty light day for activity. Work was just a bunch of meetings and discussions on how to get the team organized, but I think it is coming together. There is a lot of work that is starting to come in and it will be busy for a couple of months.
I also found out today that work is going to reimburse us for bedding. They has specifically told us that we didn't need to bring towels and bedding because it would be provided in a fully furnished rental, but they were wrong. So, they agreed to pay for it, which is nice. Nothing is cheap here. A quilt and two sets of sheets and 4 pillows was the equivalent of $240 at a warehouse store. I would have thought it would have been no more than $100 back home. I don't know how people survive here. It is funny, but engineering salary's are actually lower than back in Binghamton. Crazy.
