I haven't been adding much to my blog because we've been out of town and as soon as we got back we moved into a new place. So yesterday was the big moving party, and it was snowing and windy and just about the coldest weather we've had this winter. I had been making car runs on my own during the week, so yesterday the guys just moved the big stuff like couches and our bed. I had a friend over to help pack the kitchen, and the guys took those boxes over for me too. I have a funny mixed feeling of excitement and bla-ness. I told Greg that I'm going to put the kitchen away and that will be a lot of fun, but I just feel sick and bla when I look around and see piles of clothes and half empty boxes with everything in disarray. So I've made goals for myself for the week and hopefully I get things fixed up quickly.
In the process of moving, we decided to drop our internet provider (Verizon) because the connection was constantly failing. We signed up with Time Warner and got a deal for cable TV and internet for just a little more than we were paying already. So we've got BYU TV on right now and that's fun. We are also enjoying the music channels, and finding cool movies to watch in the evening.
Our other new thing (and Christmas present to ourselves) is our Wii. Yipee! Greg ran into a kid at school who was selling all his toys to pay for his girlfriend's car accident. He even had the packaging and receipt--said he only played it a couple times. He gave us Zelda and it came with Wii sports as well. We've been looking to buy another controller and were surprised to find the average price is about $60. So we're going to hold out til we find a good sale somewhere.
Another new thing (which brightens my day even more than the Wii and cable TV) is that I now have a pantry! A whole closet just for my food storage! No more canned food under the bed! I'll put some pictures up a little later when I get things organized.
So that's why I haven't put any exciting post up for awhile. I'm planning a little Christmas party for next week, and that will be fun to put on my blog. (That also gives me a definite time by which I need to have my house in order.)
