Ten for the Week

1. Corey got a four day last weekend, which would have been filled with a lot of fun things since the weather has been pretty nice lately. Unfortunately, I think I had food poisoning so I was very sick. Corey has been struggling to get over a cold/flu and has also been very sick lately. We spent the long weekend laying in bed and on the couch as a result.

2. Thanks to a weekend in bed, I spent a lot of time reading. Just finished Fire by Kristin Cashore and a couple of Merecedes Lackey books. Loved them all and can't wait to read the next installments.

3. We finally got Bunny to do a new trick besides Sit and Up. She can now lay Down! She's a slow learner.

4. We started working on the bug more lately. We have decided we are going to have to completely take it apart, probably to the frame, to get it as nice as we want in the end. This is a hobby that we both really enjoy and don't get enough time to play with.




5. I thought our porch was looking way too lonely and I really wanted to do some sort of holiday decorations, so we splurged and bought two nice wooden rocking chairs. We hope it will be joined by a swing one of these days.


6. It's been about two months since we cut ice cream out of our diets, which makes us pretty sad inside.

7. We finished putting down all of the pavers for our fire pit project. Now we just need bigger bricks to make the fire pit part. We hope the weather actually gets cold soon so that we can use it!

8. We noticed that we needed to change out about ten light bulbs that we had been putting off changing. We were very proud of ourselves because we bought energy efficient light bulbs, which use about 14 watts compared to 60 per light bulb.

9. I did a sad thing and cut off about five inches of my hair :( I hate hair cuts, I love my long hair, what was I thinking??

10. That's all we can think of.... our lives have been pretty boring of late!
