or that is what Paul tells me after a long day of work, "Baby, we are living the dream". He is at worship practice and so I am sitting at home trying to be productive. I brought home some papers to correct, but typing a blog sounded like a nice way to procrastinate. I just fixed some cheese sticks (you know you are out of food when the only thing to eat is unhealthy frozen food that has been in there for a year because you usually don't eat that stuff) and tried to put up some curtains. It is nice owning our own home, but you need so many more tools that you didn't need when renting (like a ladder and drill). I was all set to put the curtains up, but can't find the part to change out the drill bit so I gave up on that idea. We bought the movie
Elf (my favorite Christmas movie!) so I think I will just retire to the couch grading papers and watching movies. Perhaps when Paul get home we can put up the curtains, but we are going to 5:15am spin class tomorrow, so getting to bed early would probably be a good thing (but I really want to get our curtains up!).
Oh and we are thinking of getting a dog! I have wanted one for a while now. My family has always had a dog and I think I have finally softened Paul's heart to the idea. We found a great one up in Portland (short hair, quiet yet active), but someone else got to her before we did... but we are continuing to look. Paul is very much on the go and doesn't like too much responsibility to tie us down, but I am hoping we will find a dog that can tag along on those adventures with us. Ever since Massaro, Yutaro and Nate left our house has been a bit too quiet for my liking and I think a dog is a great compromise!
God Bless.
