We meet again, St. T!

Well, we are back on the island as of Saturday and are getting ourselves settled. Once landed, we found some quick sustenance at Iggy’s and then headed back to the condo to start some cleaning and laundry and putting our bed back in place, since it mysteriously moved itself to the center of our bedroom and was covered in some unidentified brown residue. Rumor has it that there was a leak here while we were gone, but we’ve yet to confirm it and see no other evidence of it except for the aforementioned issue.

The past couple of days have just been about putting some things to order and getting the necessary provisions. Good new is that the car started right away and without protest. It is in the shop today for a 30,000 mile check-up, as well as to make sure Slick Ricky made it through the months unscathed (minus some bruised emotions due to lack of attention).

Chaz, our contractor extraordinaire, has been called to duty to put up some drywall and to do some remaining misc. stuff in order for us to be able to put our order in for cabinets. We were very fortunate that he was willing and able to start yesterday and will be finished this week. We should have a good idea by the end of this week about when to expect our cabinets and to know how long we’ll be Without Kitchen. We are managing well, but it makes you realize how much you take for granted having all the modern conveniences at your fingertips.

I’m having technical difficulties with the camera, so once I can figure out my issues, I will post pictures of our “kitchen” area…
