Slowly Getting It Together

When we moved to New Orleans in December it was 70 and sunny ... moving out of NOLA during Hurricane Rita, we expected the monsoon-like conditions.

How come whenever we move in the St. Louis area, it's a day-long torrential downpour with unseasonably cold temperatures??

In case you haven't read between the lines, we moved into our house last Saturday when it was about 45 degrees with a driving rain. Fortunately we didn't have the wind like we did in the hurricane :).

We managed to get everything moved, with the exception of a few odds and ends at the apartment. Now we have the fun of unpacking the boatload of boxes filling the garage. Anyone care to help?

We now have internet and a phone line, Dish comes on Sunday so we're slowly but surely regaining contact with the world around us.
