Not too much going on here - the exciting news is that netflix is shipping "Shrek Ever After".  Seriously, just work (which is thankfully beginning to slow down a dab), the usually cook/clean/shop gig at home, and trying to get to the gym.  For that I am grateful we have a gym here at work.  Classes are ending this week, but they have a dvd player ( Read more... )

I hate cold, and this down in the teens barely getting above freezing stinks.  Fox remarked the other day that it would be odd to live somewhere where it isn't cold at Christmas.  I told him you could get used to it quickly ( Read more... )

Trip to Georgia was uneventful, but long.  14 hours in a car in 36 hours is too much!

I worked late yesterday and I'll be here late-ish today, so I decided to take a lunch hour today.  For a whole hour.  Where I leave the building and everything ( Read more... )

Monday after dinner we purchased our NC frazier fur Christmas tree as well as a wreath for over the fireplace.  Our living room smells like a pine forest.  Heavenly!

Very productive weekend - I got the living room curtains hung, house tidied, and weekend pre-cooking done.  Saunooke put a new floor and toilet in the hall bathroom - the remodel is nearly complete!

The guys went to see HP, but I wasn't up for it.  I plan to hit it this weekend.

I hope you all have a great holiday wherever you are and whatever you're ( Read more... )

Sautrday I received good/bad news: Ben and Natalya aren't coming next weekend.  Bad because I'd like for them to visit, good because it gives me time to get my guest room together.  We were storing some bedroom furniture in there (which we sold this weekend, yay!), and there are still pics & stuff that need to be hung, doo dads that need to be used ( Read more... )

About a year ago I painted my kitchen blue.  It was the first of this round of painting projects, which will end with my entire house being re-painted, then I will enjoy for a few years before I do it all again.  Although next time I paint it will becuase we are selling.  But anyway ( Read more... )
