that time of year again!

The holidays are upon us! I just looked at my calendar and there are less than 6 weeks left of the year. We are going to be out of town for almost 3 of them. Goodness, the time will go by fast. Bring on 2009 :)

crafting - sneak peak

When I finished the first one, Steve promptly informed me that I couldn't take a break, that I had 3 more to finish before Christmas. Can you guess what they are?

I'm glad to say now that I have 1 finished and two more almost finished. I can't wait for Christmas :)

spewing house

Our house has turned the tables on us and started spitting water OUT :)


I just think it's really funny to watch our sump pump now that it isn't hooked up anymore. Actually it's not funny that it's still not hooked up and our yard is still torn up, but they've said that they'll take care of it and we keep believing them. And they've said that at least they'll hook the sump back up to the drainage pipe sometime next week. Then I won't have the entertainment of watching our house spew like old faithful.

more progress

Steve and I finally ordered him a new wedding ring. I think that we will both like it, we really liked the picture. That's the trouble with ordering online, you can't see it before you buy it. But it's Tungsten and I like every Tungsten ring I see with similar styles in stores so we should be fine. Plus for $35 and free shipping, we'll like it for that reason alone. But wait, there's more! (said in my best infomercial voice) If we ever need to resize it, I can send it back to them and pay a $3 restocking fee and get a brand new ring in his new size. Ahh, I love finding a good deal! And it's about time, I see from my former posts that he lost his ring back in late July/early August.
