Wednesday: ice and friends

Well, today was very icy out. We did go in to work, but maybe shouldn't have. :) Oh well, it is a lot easier for me to do most of my work there.

We had dinner with Aaron and Heather and then played some Rockband. It was nice having four instruments. Good times.

Tuesday:proof

So I have proof that Flurry's been sitting on my lap. She did it again today!!

I'm tired.

Monday: clean

Oh, the house is so clean right now. The appraiser is coming tomorrow so everything had to be picked up and at least more or less cleaned. So while Ben worked on the troublesome computers and his desk, I got the rest of the house. (I still think I won with the deal.) Everything is in it's place for probably the first time since we moved in, the floors are vacuumed or swifered, things are dusted, and the kitchen is clean.

I've been trying to get to this point for months. Guess it just takes a computer virus and an appraiser. :(

So with the cleaning and the first day back at work in two weeks, it wasn't really a fun day. But rewarding I guess.

Saturday: still home :)

Ah, it was nice to be home. Although driving the whole way is annoying, it is really nice to wake up at home and not have to drive more. Flurry was incredably cudley today...she even sat on my lap at the computer for about 30 minutes. She rarely sits on my lap and I've never been able to get her to do it at the computer. It's been nice.

We've also put away most of the Christmas presents. I think that this is almost as fun as actually opening them, as you can see how they're used and how the fit or look in a certain spot. I also started taking down Christmas decorations and am about half way finished with that.

Friday: home

We made it home!

My back is really sore from snow mobiling.

Flurry was very excited to see us.

Thursday: Happy New Years

Opps...I just realized that the title for the last post should have been Wednesday. :)

Anyway, Happy 2009! We watched Dick Clarke on TV and it was really anti-climatic. Each year seems to get a bit worse. Oh well...we got sparkling white grape juice and that is always good!

We went snow mobiling today. I got my own snowmobile which was very exciting. It is warmer and easier to hang on to and just more fun. :) The trails were rather bumpy but it was really pretty.


I also got the sewing machine out. Remember that sock from last Friday that kept falling down? Well, it got sacrificed to practicing. :)



Then I folded my headband. I usually have had it folded in half but now it is quarters and has a pretty pattern on it.

Thursday: Happy Old Year's Day

Happy old years day! It was somewhat relaxing today...we went to KMart and I got some thread and pins for my sewing machine (we'll see if they get used before I leave) and then all the girls got pedicures. The nail person had never seen nails like mine before, which I thought was rather weird...they seem to actually not be that uncommon. Oh well. I did get a cute flower sticker on them.


Then we went out for a nice dinner. They had party favors at the table so we had a lot of fun with those.
