Broken Computer

My home computer took a dump =( I was trying to post a blog yesterday and it froze up and won't work now. I've tried to restart it many times. It stops at the black screen with the white Doss looking writing. Jeremy forgot to take it to the computer guy in Coolidge and he is going out of town tomorrow-Saturday. So, hopefully he will remember to take it on Monday and it won't be anything too expensive or time consuming to fix.

I will have to do my blogging from work. And, unfortunately, my pictures I was going to post are on my home computer. I know you are so disappointed - I'm sorry!

Jeremy has completed the blind installation and I am so thankful we finally have blinds! We went with the 2 1/2 inch faux wood in an embossed Antique White so it looks like it is painted real wood. We've always matched our blinds to our furniture in our previous homes, but this time I wanted to match the blinds to the house (the doors and trims of the house anyway). I think it looks really nice and I have pictures that I will post once my home computer is up and running.

Jeremy's brother gave us some of those mushroom looking ceiling lights that come installed in some homes so Jeremy found time to install those in the guest bedroom and the office. It's amazing to be able to go into those rooms at night and be able to see stuff! Thanks Josh!
It seems after 10 months of living in this home, it's finally starting to come together. There is much more business to be taken care of, but it feels good to have a little progress here and there.

Other items on our wish list for our home:
*Ceiling fans (at least in our room, Andrew's room, and the TV room)
*Landscaping in the backyard
*Pool
*Entertainment center for the TV room (something big to take up that huge wall)
*Decorations for the walls and fake/real plants and trees
I know the pool will be a long time down the road, but I hope the rest is doable within the next year.

Yesterday, I had a great time with Amy and Melissa scrapbooking (again, I have pictures that I will upload soon). Andrew enjoyed playing with the kids and I was able to complete Andrew's second album (ages 2 and 3). Now, I need to start an album for him for ages 4 and 5. I need to get crackin' to try and catch up before the holidays get here! I am at January 2008 for our Family album, and want to catch that up before the holidays, as well. So, all my scrappin' buddies, be expecting emails from me to get together to scrap!
