Moved in, Unpacking

So we officially closed on the house last Friday. We made the big move on Saturday morning with the help of Mike/Nancy, Leslie/Flora, and Winston. The POD container that had been in storage since late April was dropped off on the driveway. It was just a matter of moving stuff from the container into the house. I also rented that same box truck I used to move out of the old house to move the stuff I had stored at Sam and Karen's and also the stuff from the apartment we have been staying at. Right now we are still unpacking and getting stuff back in order.

Due to the lack of pictures right now due to the mess inside the house, I will leave you with a few pictures of the toilet seat bidet I installed. The plumbing part took a while to figure out due to the different size connections or connectors that weren't readily available. I had to make a run to Lowe's to find the right combination of hoses, couplings, and "nipples" to connect to the valve that comes out of the wall and divert the water line into the seat itself. For those who have never had the pleasure of using one of these, it basically shoots water up from underneath the seat to clean your butt after relieving yourself. You still have to wipe yourself but only to dry off. The basic functions are: seat warmer, water temperature selection, butt wash, and female wash. If you ever come to my house I will let you into the master bath to give it a go.

The new bidet seat installed. I had a GFCI outlet installed next to the toilet to power up.

Another view of the toilet seat. The controls are on the left side. The seat is also removable for cleaning. I've noticed that Costco online and even Sam's online are now selling them. Just do a search for "Bidet."
