New House Update

We sure got some startling news today from the builder. Our house could be ready as early as the middle of Oct. This means we need to go into overdrive on selling our house in South Ft. Myers...our neighbor suggested we sell lottery tickets on e-bay for a hundred bucks each...lol.

We made a few electrical changes but the funniest moment is when the supervisor wanted to know why we wanted a waist high outlet in the closet of the room that is to be my workroom...we just looked at each other and told her it was for scrapbooking...she still had no clue but said her boss was going nuts trying to figure it out. Lol

We found the neatest restaurant in Land O' Lakes, Rapscallions on Lake Bell. The food is wonderful, the view on the back deck of the lake (we had a water skier putting on quite a show while we ate), reasonable prices and the best of all, happy hour two fers start at noon and run til four daily. Lots of live music on weekends...definately our kind of place.

I think we are really going to love this kind of living! Oh, and the new shopping center with the Publix is about a half mile from our house...so E can continue to work his part time job...yeah me, er ah Him!

It's about that last pic...the sideways one...lol. That is what we viewed off the deck. Maybe I can find the one of E and I later...

October, eh? Sounds like we need to plan a visit sometime afterward to help christen the new digs! And I love the sound of rapscallions, especially that early happy hour part!
Great news about Publix--we were just wondering amongst ourselves how far you would be from one. Best news from our neck of the woods in that department is that they're building a new Publix less than a mile away! Woohoo!!! Happy days will be here again!!
