Sorry, no photos of the house yet because there isn't much to see yet. I was starting to feel settled in and then we took all the furniture out of the office and bedroom and stacked it in the living room so we can replace the dark green carpets in those rooms tomorrow. Once things are moved back to their places I will try to get some photos up (once we get internet access back up at home that is -- at this point I think we're going to switch from DSL to cable so it may be an extra week until we're all set.)
Projects so far: the washing machine and dryer turned out to block the folding doors that hide them, so S took the doors off, moved the track they were on, and remounted them about an inch out and now magically you can close the doors (I was very impressed). S also installed the new dishwasher which was even more impressive since they don't come with a plug or anything, just a bunch of wires you have to figure out. He also replaced the shower heads and heater filter. It turns out that in order to install the oven we need an electrician to rewire something (in addition to having to cut through the cabinet) because the old oven was apparently hard-wired in so there's no way to plug in the new one. Carpet and electrician coming tomorrow, new stove redelivered on Saturday, phone service should be up today, cable modem and service in 7-10 days. I think that's it for now.
