5 things that make me happy today

August 25th, 2007

1. My new water bottle. It is a Sigg and it is fantastic.(see picture at left)

2. The New Pornographer's new album, "Challengers." We got it yesterday, and have listened to it maybe 11 times through already while we work on the house. Even more happy, they are coming to Houston November 1st!

3. The new Rilo Kiley album "Under the Blacklight" also came out this week. We picked it up today, but haven't really listened to the entire thing yet. I do like the song Silver Lining, however. Rilo Kiley also gets a double happy, since they too are visiting us here in Houston.

4. We are nearing completion of our first room in the house. The floors should be completed tomorrow, and then we'll just have to get some furniture to put in there! Then begins the rest of the house (floors, paint, furniture, etc.).

5. Scharffen Berger chocolate. Mmmmm. I made some chocolate cookies on Thursday using their semi-sweet chocolate bar cut into chunks and they are mighty tasty.

Welcome to the joys of home owning. Don't think you will ever get through, it goes on and on, don't like this paint, can't stand this carpet another day, don't like the cabinets, etc. Don't you wish now you had followed your daddy around and observed all he did in all the houses in which you lived?
John and Richard put in laminate flooring and replaced door facings and baseboards in our bedroom Sun & Mon. It really looks good. If they keep trying, they may be able to hire out.
Have fun in your house.
