Tropical Storm Andrea

I’m actually kind of excited to hunker down in my new abode and ride out the storm with Annie. I do wish my TV was hooked up so I could at least watch a movie, though. I have missed my Big Bang Theory marathons, but it’s looking like we can’t get cable while we’re here.

Everything is based on a 24-month contract, and we can only get satellite since I’m so rural. The provider was very unclear on whether military orders would get us out of the contract – and even if they said yes, the reviews I found indicate they are not honest about it.

Good thing I recently downloaded lots of books to read!

Just found out that the owners of the house I’m moving into for a few months are taking their washer/dryer with them to California. That’s going to get really interesting, especially once Chuck gets back and suddenly the laundry has tripled!

Hopefully the laundromats around here aren’t too sketchy…or I’ll need to learn to do laundry old school – fast!!

My favorite color palette captured in one photo! Peaches… pinks… yellows. Wish I had found this before I planned my wedding. I think I got close enough though 🙂

I downloaded The Great Gatsby last night because it’s appalling that I haven’t actually read this classic. (First off, can I just say it’s amazing to be able to download a book onto my iPad in mere seconds for just $4.99?? I feel like such an old lady being so easily impressed by technology these days…)

Anyhoo… I really want to see the movie, and I’ve heard the story is all sorts of relateable in some ways… but I refuse to see it till I’ve read the book. I’m also thinking of downloading (ah!!) The Beautiful and the Damned. I’m suddenly intrigued by this era of fiction… and craving the classics in general.
