miekecBeen busy lately - both at work and at home. So much to do, so little time. There are many projects in progress, which is both a good and a bad thing. It's great they're happening, but so frustrating to have so many balls in the air at the same time, yet not enough time/resources to finish them.
We did finish the floors. And most of the room-swapping. Just this weekend we finished putting the desk together in our room, and moving 2 of the 3 computers onto it. And next to it. And under it. But functional! We even managed to do a final backup of the &%^)^!%!! broken win2000 machine, and format the sucker, and install a crisp and clean win2000 on it. If we can't get that going, or if it breaks, the machine is toast. But so far so good.
Alex' loft bed is still in progress - we have to lower it because of our very low ceilings. So a lot of measuring and glueing and drilling and such needs to happen. Some of which has. We're getting there. But that means that our room is a mess with his mattress in there and basically blocking progress there. At least Karin's room is almost done, with the computer moved out of there. Anyone need a small, rolling hutch? Or 2 relatively new and good monitors (CRTs)? We'll put them up on freecycle.
After some of those projects are done, we can continue on our room, get an actual bedframe for us, and a new futon. Once the piles of boxes in that corner are gone. Where did all those boxes come from??!! It's like they breed when I turn my back.
Anyway. A rough life update. More later.
Oh, and a tally update:
Weasley +1 mouse, dead. Don't know where in the world he found a live mouse in this arctic freeze!

So no, not really snow. I wish we'd just get one good nice snowfall - have yet to try out karin's new sled :)
