Boxes and Packing

Harry and I wanted to get a start on packing, as many of you know we have a ton of stuff... okay okay .. I have a ton of stuff. So we went to Box City and picked up $80 dollars worth of boxes. That should be enough to pack most of our stuff. I had planned to go to my brothers and get his plastic containers for all my aciton figures.. but after a long rough week at work I couldn't drive the hour to get them.. I'll get them next week. We started to pack up the living room and bathroom. I'm getting excited about the move.. we've been wanting to rent a house for a while. Now we just have to find one.

Time to Move On

Well today is the day I have been expecting the past two and a half years. Yes folks we got the letter from the apartment about our dog Daisy.

Here is what it said. Dear Kenneth, It has been brought to my attention that you have a dog living in your apartment. Dogs are not allowed in this building, under any circumstances. you must find another home for your dog immediately. Failure to do so may result in the termination of your tenancy. We appreciate your anticipated cooperation.

We have been wanting to move to a house the past year and have looked here and there. And of course we are not going to get rid of our Daisy so I will have to call and give them our notice and find a new place to live in the next 30 days... oh and we have to pack the entire apartment.. this is going to be a fun Birthday month for me.

Oh well ...everything happens for a reason!!!

More Action Figures

Wow.. what a great week for me.. got more figures today, This time from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There are White Witch Willow, Choosen Willow, Kennedy and Kendra. I ordered these quite a while ago so it's nice to finally get them. These may be the last of the Buffy line of figures. For the second time the line of figures have been cancelled, but a few years ago the fans brought it them back.. and they are trying to do it again... will just have to wait and see.

New Action Figures

Today I got more of the TNG action figures. Diamond Select Toys have been producing these the past few years and they are fantastic. With this wave I got Beverly Crusher in her Seventh Season outfit as well as seen in All Good Things... I also got Wesley Crusher and the famous Q. Both Beverly figures are fantastic, they have great detail. Q look pretty good and from certain angles he looks just like him. Then we have Wesley.. at least that's what the packaging says. I don't think he looks anything like him. Maybe if you look at him from a certain angle he may look somewhat like Wesley. I'm suprising because DST likeness have been dead on. I have already ordered the next and final wave of TNG figures. Which will include Nemesis Beverly, Miles O'Brien, Ensign Ro and Nurse Ogawa.

Labor Day BBQ

The past few years we have gone to my Dad's brothers Labor Day BBQ, last year it was at a park, this year it was at my cousin Darren's house. It was hot.. hot.. hot. It was great to see my "new" uncle, aunt and cousins. And it's always great to see my Dad so happy hanging out with his family. If you don't know the story about how I found my Dad's family after 58 years check out my website and click on the "family" link. It was a fun but hot day.
