Not happy with Lowe's

So a couple weeks ago we bought a new washer and dryer from Lowe's. The only reason we got it from there is because I had a 10% coupon, and if you know me you know I love to save money. (If you do not believe me ask the Boxely team about paying $1.01 for a Coke.)
We bought the Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer pair. We really like our washer and dryer, but I am very unsatisfied with Lowe's. They did not bring out everything we bought. They brought the wash/dryer, but not the pedestals. After many, many calls to them, and finally driving to the store and talking with the store manager we got everything. In the end it turned out they had deleted us from their system. They did not even know they were to deliver anything else. I am not too happy with Lowe’s right now. My advice to everyone, shop at Home Depot!

Moving In

So closing on our new house went fine. The movers got all of our stuff in, and now we are unpacking all the boxes. It is amazing how much stuff we have. I can see some of the stuff either donated or trashed. Yesterday we had the telephone, cable, and internet connections installed. On Daniel Island everyone has fiber running to their house. After a few quick speed test I am getting over 3 megs downstream and about 2.9 meg upstream for my internet connection. A lot better than what I had with Adelphia in VA. Let's hope it stays that way. The kids started in their new school today. They seem to like it so far. Well, I guess it is time to unpack another box. At this rate we will be done sometime this summer.
