September 27, 2017. Canyon Lake, Texas. Progress.

Progress has been made.  The Internet was installed this afternoon.  Since we bought the ranch in 2001, we have been here for just a few days so we have been using Ken's hot spot on his phone.  Now that we are here for longer periods of time, we installed the internet.  We will keep it going all year so the family will be able to use it too.  Our life is easier with internet on all floors and in every room.

I have been opening boxes which have been packed up and stored in David's garage.  While we were in Nova Scotia, Ronnie the carpenter fixed our closet.  The old inefficient closet was fine when we had limited clothes, but now we have brought our ranch clothes here.   I still have one box to open but I think we will fit.  We also moved a bigger chest from the girls room to our room and relocated the two small chests.  Actually, after the nice young man had completed his installation of the internet, I asked if he wanted a bit of extra money, so he moved the chest for me.  And I was so grateful I paid him a handsome sum.

I have a bag of clothes to take to Goodwill, also a bag of shoes.  Two old lamps are by the front door along with a wine rack that has never been used, so we are clearing out the clutter.   We designed the rehab of this house so we could not store a lot of stuff so we must keep ourselves honest and not store object we do not use.  And finally, we are keeping our main computer on the desk in our bedroom.   Our lovely desk has hardly ever been used so now we can sit and work.  More importantly, when Ken works on the computer in the middle of the night he will not need to go up the stairs to get to the computer.  Progress has really been made at our home in Texas.
