First Day

The weather started out great then went downhill during the day. We left pretentious Park City and traveled to town where we started looking at housing options.

This week there is much on my list to do. So while it rained, rained/snowed and now is lightly snowing, covering the grass (barely) but not the sidewalks which have been warmed by the sun for many days.

It’s my favorite time for writing and house-hunting, middle of the night. I breathe better sitting upright and Jim keeps turning up the heat to 74 degrees and it’s so dry! We’re in hotel “suites” now, extended stay for the week while we house-hunt.

JIm starts work today and last night I prepped the hiring documents for him. I still have to close out TX and he’s already talking about finding a mechanic et al. There’s so much on my to-do list I won’t even start the list until light of day.

We have a microwave and two burners. No oven, not even a toaster. I found a Whole Foods and picked up a few things so Jim can have cereal, or eggs and microwave bacon and a muffin, for breakfast and I can make myself a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch.

Zoe’s doing fine. She’s been sleeping a lot though her vet said she won’t have as much trouble as we humans will with the altitudes. Time to try to sleep so I can help Jim settle in for the first week of a new job. Cheers, Dee

  1. Have you tried Craigslist to find a place to stay? That’s how I found an apt for my parents when they came to Buffalo last summer (under the Housing section, they have a special area for “Sublet/Temporary”. Good luck and hope Jim likes his new job!

  2. I’m glad you are “where you need to be” at last after that long ol’ drive!
    I vote for the furnished 3 BR place myself – there’s no sense in shipping furniture etc 2X in a less-than-1-yr period…

  3. Pam, I did that today and found a good one. It’s a very different market here but since we hit the ground yesterday I’ll figure it out. Thanks for being a great friend!
