Not For Those WIth Sensitive Stomachs...

I just had to issue a disclaimer.

DH and I have been together for eleven years now! Wow!

Travis was turned 3 right after our first date. Now Travis is wanting to buy an old pickup truck to fix up for when he starts driving.

Argh! I'm not ready!

But DH is still the best and I'm keeping him!

Welcome to Indiana

Argh - I am really done with this cold weather already. Christmas is over. Be gone.

So I am sitting at home with the dogs and my sister, waiting for DH to come home.

And I know it is so wrong, but I really want a pizza. Delivered.

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong...

My day off

Ok, that was a longer break than I planned on.

Christmas was pretty good, considering I had anticipated missing most of it. When you work retail, you tend to miss most of the festivities.

Today, it is bitterly cold out. I know I do not have it nearly as bad as some, but blah just the same. My sister and current new roommate told me our hometown got 16 inches of snow. Ugh. I'm too old for that stuff.

And don't worry. DH is still around. He's just generously agreed to let sister #1 stay with us a while until she finds a job.

You can't let family go homeless, you know.

The dogs are keeping me hopping. It's cold out, so no one wants to stay outside long enough to do all their business at once. *sigh* They do make great lap warmers on cold nights though. I'm just glad they are little. If I had those Irish Wolfhounds I've always wanted, the couch would have collapsed.

All for now. Happy New Year, everyone!

Oh ye of little faith ...

See? I posted twice this month. Sadly, I'm too pooped to come up with anything brilliant,so you may have to amuse yourselves.

It's candle selling season, folks!

No, I really do live.

Ok, sorry for dropping off the face of the earth. No internet for nearly a year will do that.

I now have internet at home, instead of just on my phone. Much better.

I'll try to do better about posting now.

I Live

Hi there everyone.

No I didn't fall off the end of the earth. I just moved to a place where it's taken me two months to find out who offers internet service. I should be up and blogging again in a week or two.

And I love my new house!

Don't worry CBs! I'm trying to make my way back to you!

Day 7

I spent three hours of yesterday with the house inspector going over the house. As far as I know, there are just a few minor things (an ungrounded outlet here, no safety cable on the garage door there) and a wee bit of mold in the crawlspace. Hopefully we can convince the owner to take care of these and we'll be on our way.

Observation: After spending three hours in my new home-to-be I decided that I hated the knobs on the cabinets. Then I added up all the knobs we'd have to replace: 37. Maybe they're not so bad anyway.

Also, the main bathroom has this funky brick wall treatment. I love the colors, but after pondering this for a while I decided it made me feel like I was taking a leak in an upscale-yet-still-seedy alley. Hmm.

Time will tell, right?
