Life is Blessed

Hi, this is guest blogger Dan. I am no good at blogging. I never really know what to talk about and I have a tendency to just ramble. I made brownies yesterday, that really isn't the sort of thing that goes in a blog though. I have mainly been working on the house. During snowmagedon I couldn't get out of our subdivision because the plows never came through. Since I could not make it into work I decided to work on the house. I spent the whole day up in the attic installing baffles in each of the roof rafters to help with air circulation. It was pretty rough. I had to crawl around in insulation for hours and wedge myself into tight spaces with insulation surrounding me. It was a clausterphobics nightmare. I am trying to get all of these little projects out of the way before baby comes. I figure once there is a baby around there will not be as much time to do these sort of things. Here is my list:


Fix the gutters


Put in a new front porch.


Rewire and insulate the basement


Finish the nursery


Obviously the nursery is the most important. I think it is coming along quite nicely at the moment though.

This picture is right after I finished painting the stripe on the wall. The colors in the picture don't look right, but this is the general idea. It looks cuter now though. Trisha moved the crib and put some furniture in there. I think it looks nice. Ooop, Diet Coke break.

Oh, sad times. My Diet Coke is partially frozen. We keep the box of cans in the garage and since it is negative ridiculous degrees out, which I believe equates to about absolute zero, I now have a Diet Coke slushy.

We still have to stencil in the animals on the stripe since we are going for an African safari theme. Then I have to install a closet organizer and put in doors for the closet. I took the old ones out because they were old, ugly and hard to use. Well that is it for today.
