January Updates

Wow, oops it's been a whole month?

Man, where to start?

Kelvin's getting huge. We ordered him a new crate because we couldn't find one around the city in the right size. Hopefully it'll be here before Saturday because we're going up to Mike C.'s to watch the super bowl on his HDTV! Wee!

the house is coming along great. This last weekend tina's mom came down to visit and we got the WHOLE baby's room painted a beautiful baby green color and the first coat on the hallway. As soon as we get the second coat on the hallway we can have the upstairs floors redone! That's really exciting. Also I'm thinking of getting the tiles installed in the bathroom by Lowes people. I'm just not sure it's worth the strain on us and both our parents trying to do it ourselves. I can get lowes to install the floor tiles for $165 and the wall tiles for only $400. Of course there's tax and the stupid $35 "measuring fee" but $500 installed seems like a steal, and it'll get done and done right (hopefully lol).

I was really excited yesterday to finally install our cool pot rack, but I found out that some idiot designed it with 33.5" o.c. length. I mean come ON. Joists are 32" o.c. How am I supposed to install it without going up to the attic, moving a bunch of crap around, taking out the floor boards, and extending the thickness of the joist? What if someone couldn't access their joists? Man it really pisses me off lol. Oh well I think I can do it, it's just a ton more work. Doesn't help that my puny drill is only 9.6v.

Oh well I guess that's it for now. I'll try to get some pictures up, but the digital camera is annoying. I really need to do more work on my research but it just hasn't seemed exciting lately.
