New House, New Ideas
So, when the new house is all moved into and settled I have some ideas. The first is having the Thanksgiving dessert annual event. That’ll be good times. I think it’ll really take off.
Another idea I was having was a monthly dinner thing. I don’t want to call it a dinner party. That just sounds too… yeah. Anyway, it would be a good way to get people together, etc. It could even be a pot luck sorta deal. It’s an idea but it probably needs a bit of refining. I’m excited.
No trackbacks yet.
Backyard – Complete!
Yesterday they finished the backyard! Finally! Now the dogs have some place to run and play off leash and do their business without us having to be right next to them 100% of the time. I’m so happy! Here are pictures of the back yard before and after. :)

So we have a cleaning lady and her name is Rosie… and she’s a robot… a Roomba to be exact. :) I love her so much. Every day at 11 she sets out to accomplish the task of picking up every last bit of dog hair lying on the floor and she does a pretty [...]

So I read the FAQs online and was able to troubleshoot the heating problem. The system works like a charm now. Just in time, since the weather took a turn for the worse this week. We have had pretty not stop rain since yesterday at 4pm. Nuts.

So I’ve been wrestling with programmable thermostats for the last two days. I can’t seem to get them to work. Either their already broken or they won’t turn on the heater when the “heat” function is engaged. I will be calling Honeywell tomorrow for technical assistance and let’s hope it’s an easy [...]

I am totally a fan of the pot luck idea. I am even more of fan if people will be reluctant to take home leftovers and I can bring Tupperware to take care of that problem for them.

Oh! And I have Apples To Apples now, which is guaranteed fun for any social gathering.

It’s very entertaining how parallel our lives seem to be. We just moved into the new place and are already talking with friends about new monthly get togethers and game nights. Huzzah for life changes. :-)

I’ve always thought of doing that sort of thing! I think it’s a great idea!
