Yep, yesterday was the momentous day. Around two o’clock, the phone rang. The FedEx guy called for unloading instructions. “DON’T pull into our driveway”! That was all I had for him. So here I am, patiently waiting…

I didn’t have to wait long! Mr. FedEx arrived shortly after I backed the truck down to the end of the driveway.

He happened to be the same driver that delivered our TV when we moved in. Fortunately Jim was home yesterday to help unload. I have to say, it was a bit of a let down… I had built this up in my head to where the boxes were going to be bigger than the truck!

The rail boxes were. That’s what Jim is pulling out of the truck in the above picture. Those suckers were heavy! We lifted those over the toolbox in the bed of our truck because they were way too heavy to carry up to the house.

All loaded up! How can so few and such small boxes take up so much space once set up?

Jim is installing new overhead lights in the garage, so that it’s absolutely blinding out there. Honestly, you need sunglasses. But hey I can SEE now, and I should be able to photograph quilts inside instead of dragging them out, hauling a ladder out, and draping them over the fence. I purchased a Savage Port-a-stand to hang my quilts from for photographing.
Today we will move the HQ16 to the other side of the garage, install the second light, and hopefully (if we think both longarms will fit) Jim will start setting up the Millennium. It’s going to be tight though, there’s no way to move my treadmill without disassembling it, which we’ve no desire to do!
