A quick update

I have unpacked the mountain of boxes!!! I did it in two weeks - ok, ok.  I know, it took me longer, but I am doing it with ONE leg.  I am just relieved it is all finished.  Now, to work on making it pretty.  It has been quite the adventure.  I share this little tidbit so you know what I am dealing with here in Arkansas.

The leasing company told me I would have to go to the post office to get my mailbox key.  OK.  I went, and they looked it up and said, that no, they didn't have it - the leasing company did.  I called them. NOTE: The following really happened word for word!!

Me: "The post office says you have my mailbox key."

Lending Office (LO): "We didn't give it to you?"

Me: "No, I got two front door keys."

LO: "Oh, well, do you want me to put it in the mail to you?"

Me:  "Um, no.  How would I get it?"

LO: LONG pregnant pause (I could see the buffering line over her head moving slowly.) "Oh...."

Oh, indeed.  Yes, live bait at gas stations and barely live brain cells.  Thank you very much, Arkansas.  I am here all week!!!  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ok, so now I am off to an interview with a staffing company.  The fun never ends!!!

Your Magnificent Marie
