Around the Corner… 18 Dec

Christmas is right around the corner…a week away. And that means my birthday is coming…let’s talk about something else.

Today was a long day (well, it’s not even 4 and it seems like two days have gone by). James went to the nose, ear, throat doctor and will have to go back for tests. They think deviated septum…I totally called that, like a year ago (why don’t people listen to me?).  Then we spent the morning making trips to the storage unit and back to unload. Finally, found my cd-r’s!!  We still have a ways to go, but it’s looking better. The garage, however, is super full. My car will be outside for awhile :( Cold mornings…

We used up a gift card for Mondo’s Sports Cafe. The food and service were excellent. I had the chicken and avocado blt with water. Love avocado!!! JP had the italian sausage sandwich, which smelled awesome!!!  It was covered in cheese, so I’ll never eat it.

After lunch we came back and took the new recliner upstairs to the guest room and brought the old recliner downstairs.  We thought the old recliner would look good with the replacement couch (technically a loveseat).  We were right about that.  And once we moved the new recliner upstairs I HAD to move the furniture around a bit, so the guest room is arrange slightly different. See my flickr for pics.  And since we were getting a smaller piece of furniture as a replacement…we moved the downstairs around.  It definitely looks better in person. There is a lot more room to manuever downstairs and both sitting areas are very comfortable.  I’m really excited about this!! Some day it will look even better after we save the money for a flat panel wall TV.  I just need a couple of lamps to finish off the downstairs.

After all the moving I uploaded some pics and talked to mom on the phone. They’ve decided to total her car, so we will be car shopping with her. I’m hoping to get her into a CR-V or a RAV :)

Now, I need to write out some bills and see what the mutts are doing. Quietness usually doesn’t mean peace when it comes to the 2wheatens.  James is going to the basketball game at City tonight, so I should be able to unpack some stuff and possibly make a couple more trips to storage…or I could sew the rest of Katie’s baby blanket. Hmmm…I sewed for around 3.5 hours yesterday and it was so much fun. I made 4 stockings (see flickr), while Deb disassembled an ongoing 10 year project. It was sad to see her ball it up, but she made it look like fun ;)
