This is about Stacie and Tom's life together in Marquette, Michigan. We moved here in September 2001 with no jobs, and no place to live (except hotels, lol). We love it up here, and in each post you'll read new and old stories about us!

countdown

4 days til we move.

The closing is on Thursday and we move on Saturday.
I still need to ~call the electric company to get the power turned on
~call the phone company and get the phones turned on

Already did this
~reserved a moving truck
~started to pack - need more boxes, ya don't realize how much you have until you put it in boxes.

I keep thinking we're going to have to get a really old used 4WD truck just for the winters. Lots and lots more snow falls in Neguanee. We'll see how many times we get stuck before we get one. lol

There's no cable at the new place, so we're not going to have any TV for a while. There is a directTV satellite dish in the yard, but just to save on money we're not getting it turned on. So, no cable also means no more Cable Internet... and we pretty much refuse to get AO-hell again, so no internet at home for awhile either. That's ok though! There's lots of work to get done on the house so that's a good thing.

weekend

Tom and I went to Ontonagon for Labor Day weekend. His friend Kevin, wife wendy and 2 kids, and Mocha (4 month chocolate lab) met us there on Saturday. It was perfect weather. We had bon-fires both nights. Me and Tom went swimming in the lake and it was pretty warm!

Perry and Mocha loved each other.


We took them the Porcipine Mountains, Syl's (breakfast), Antonio's (breakfast), and that big river by Antonio's.
Kevin and Wendy had brought a ton of food, so we ate dinners at the house.
On Monday, we soooo didn't want to leave.
But, we did and on the way home Perry barfed in the car. He had swallowed a rawhide.
