Just a quick update

[jayes_musings]

We're still househunting, although hopefully we're coming near the end of that. We saw a lovely house yesterday (and HUGE!!), which would be perfect except that the back yard was completely dead except for the weeds....and we'd like at least something, even just grass. We'd be prepared to do-it-ourselves as long as the landlord compensated us in some fashion. So we shall see. It has been available for sometime and the property management company listing it, says that's the problem people have had with it. Going to see another house later today too...and there maybe another coming free (if the people don't come up with the deposit, but I'm not holding my breath on that one).

In other news, at least our BMW has arrived in Oakland, and we go to pick that up on Monday. So we'll have two vehicles as we're going to keep a hold of the one we're borrowing for a little while.

Other than that, life is quite boring with not a whole lot to do in between things and with stuff just hanging in limbo. Dish satellite sucks, so we won't be getting that. For a time we were getting BBC America, but now it's gone...just in time for Torchwood's premiere! So that's makes me not a happy camper. :P

Jaye! *leaps and hugs* So glad to see you popping your head up. I can't even imagine all the things you have to take care of when you do a big move like this. The house sounds pretty good, except for the yard of course, but if the property management people have had it sitting around for ages as you say, they will hopefully be eager to do a deal with you so you can returf the yard or whatever.

Eeeee cars! When is the St. George's flag Mini coming, or is it already there? I am so jealous of that car. ;)

Sorry to hear about BBC America too. :( Don't worry...I can probably help hook you up with Torchwood discs when season 2 starts if you need them.

And I love your icon. *stares dreamily at it* Gerry!

*hugs tight* We'll see about the house. It's still on the short list, but we saw another today which me and hubby think is lovely, but the kids are not that taken with it -- they love the one with the dead backyard. The other one, which would have been a great compromise, somebody beat us to it.

The mini won't be here until October...so a bit more of a wait for that one.

Hehehehe....NP about Torchwood. I'm sure I'll be able to get a hold of eps (but if not, I'll keep you in mind *g*), plus I have all of season 1 on my computer...just don't have said computer. *g*

For that another Gerry, for you!!

Ooooooh. *stares* That reminds me, I still owe you a Hsu rep! I'll do it asap, no rush on replying, of course. I know you've got plenty enough to do atm. ;)

Yay! I am so thrilled to see you on LJ! *hugs you tight* I hope you re feeling better. Good luck in the househunt. I know that can be really harrying. :) Dish where you are can suck big time. At least you *get* something resembling channels outside the big three or four! We don't get any of that out here.

Miss you terribly! Have to send you a hugemongous email! :)

If it makes you feel better, most people's yards are dead on the east coast, given the lack of rain.
