Since I've been married, we've never needed more than one car for our household. Actually, dealing with more than one car in San Francisco or Washington D.C. can be quite the pain (especially if you don't have a garage space!). Because I will be spending the fall back in D.C., Mr. TPG and I decided to try to make it with only one car in Carson this summer. However, you pretty much need to drive everywhere around here! So I am Mr. TPG's official chauffeur for the next few months.
After I dropped Mr. TPG off at work this morning, I was hoping it would be a busy day - my first as a housewife. The cable guy came this morning and we're officially wired in to the net (thank goodness...internet access is like a drug, and my blackberry was not satisfying enough!). I was hoping our moving container would get dropped off today, as sitting on the floor all the time has quickly gotten old, but alas, it will not arrive until tomorrow. Tonight we are checking out a dining set from Craigslist, which will hopefully work out -- and that means chairs! A place to sit!
Though I guess we do have chairs right now...
We actually had only one camp chair when we arrived, and after a day of guilt-tripping the husband that he had his comfy camp chair and I had the uncomfy step stool, he bought me a $9.99 camp chair from Wal-Mart. Definitely not as nice as our couch though, which I can't wait to unpack tomorrow.
So my first day as a housewife has been pretty uneventful. I've accomplished only: (1) paying the cable guy, and (2) watching hulu. I'd better go finish a few errands before picking Mr. TPG up from work so I can cross a few more items off my to do list. Otherwise I will have seriously failed on housewife day #1!
