We’ve been planning to buy the next release of the iphone since Bush declared he’d send us some cash, so we joined the throngs Friday. I’ve definitely used some great features and apps already, and will get a lot of use out of them, but I am not buying games or spending time finding the perfect app for x or y, so I think my time fiddling is already minimizing a great deal. Some of my favorite finds were jott (why was I not using it before?) and save benjis. I really enjoyed being out and about and saying, “Let’s do something fun. Hey, I think there’s a drive-in somewhere nearby.” And being able to quickly find out the location and what was playing so that we could go straight there, no fuss.
Moving is always a hassle, and we are supposed to start next weekend. Unfortunately, we are still waiting on final appraisal numbers, eleven days before closing. Please pray that all goes well. Moving has inspired me to sell some things, including the nursery furniture. Lexi and Kate are camping out on their floor until my parents have a chance to bring the bunk beds that my siblings and I used growing up. Hurrah for classic furniture that stands the test of time. They must be almost thirty years old now, and still going strong.
