Updates

It begins. Well, in a few weeks.

All the books for my Virginia Woolf class. Can. Not. Wait.

Last night I went to the Russkie's house for dinner and to admire her newly renovated and decorated library front room. Hmm. Sounds so familiar. :) I stink REALLY BAD at taking self portraits. I've figured out that this is because my phone is the size of a brick and my hand is too small to hold it AND somehow press the button to take the pic. So in all the pics I take, my friends look happy and I look like I'm concentrating. Because I am.

If Lucyfer let me hold her like this I would never leave the house. I would just sit on the couch with her and eat Haagen Dazs coffee ice cream all day long.

Also, I know that you've been dying to see a yard update! Remember when I spent my spring break removing all those stones so that "grass" could eventually grow? Well, here's where we are with that.

Before

Now

There are patches of brown nothingness, but still. It's coming along! The Scott's Lawn guy says that the grass seeds really germinate in the fall. So, by this time next year, we should be seeing some progress!

Now

We still have a ways to go, but I'll take the weeds and I'll be thankful for them because they're green. The house is looking less ghetto all the time.

A close-up of my beauties, for good measure:

Please buy our VA house. That is all for today.
