Suz’s Ramblings…

I agreed on Friday to have some friends that I haven’t seen in FAR FAR FAR too long over in the very near future. Like in less than three weeks. I was on cloud nine at the prospect of getting to see said friends until I got home from work and was greeted [...]

We are nearing the one year anniversary of getting the keys to our house.  As such, we are scrambling to make sure that anything that breaks that might remotely be covered by the home warranty is taken care of.
Two weeks ago, the husband filled out KB Home’s online form requesting some repairs.  A week ago, [...]

Last weekend (or the one before), we finally got around to staking out where we’re planning on having the turf portion of the backyard. Yesterday, the in-laws came over and helped us start the long process of removing the rocks from the area we are planning on putting the turf on. Considering that ours [...]

Life has been sucking a lot at the moment, and it’s not something I’m ready to talk about yet, so I’ve been letting the blog slide more than usual.
The sinuses appear to be getting better, which is a good thing.

The TV that we got is a 50″ plasma.  If I recall correctly, it was manufactured by [...]

Time for a cliched moment.
Today is the first day of 2008, so I’d like to take a moment to reflect on 2007 and ponder the blank slate that is 2008.
2007 brought the following to the husband and I:

A New House
New Furniture
A New Car

Yep.  Yesterday afternoon we finally went and did it.  We replaced the 97 [...]

You know that you have truly passed the lamesauce marker when you can’t come up with even a half witty title for your post.  With as long as it’s been since my last post, you’d think I could do better.  Sadly, “Update” is as good as I could muster.
So, in the ten or so days [...]

A week ago, part of our entertainment center got delivered.  Apparently the bridge that was on the truck was warped, so it stayed on the truck, and the two audio piers, as well as the TV stand were brought in.  We began unwrapping the audio piers so that the shelves could be placed into them.  [...]

We got a notice in the mail about a week ago that there was going to be a Landscape Maintenance Association meeting tonight.  I notified the husband that we would be attending it.
Something about hoping to meet other neighbors and get involved in the neighborhood and such.
Plus there was a little bit of wanting to [...]
