Melanie ~ look at me with starry eyes...

Tim let me sleep in till after 11 this morning, I can't believe I slept that late. Only reason I woke up is that he crawled back into bed with me. My ears/jaw/throat hurt, but the sinus pressure is not nearly as bad as it has been. After a week of this, I think the cold might be on its way out.

We hired someone for Tuesday, to help us move. I feel so relieved.

We will probably do a few more loads of boxes today, it's actually starting to look more empty in here. I couldn't believe how many boxes went over and it still looked like a full apartment! Over the next year we'll need to buy some good bookshelves and things for storage.


My wishlist for the new house:

soonish
- lawnmower (will probably buy today)
- IKEA pantry (a necessity, bigger house with way less cupboard space..)
- IKEA hutch for wall in living room (expensive b'day present, but I'd take it ;) )
- new dishes, probably fiestaware
- new gas grill for Tim
- medicine cabinets with mirrors for bathrooms, replace mirrors
- fitted blinds
- new glasses/mugs

future
- new doors for bedrooms
- new back door to laundry room (don't like the big window)
- change electric stove to gas stove (we think the fittings are there)
- new kitchen cabinets (kind of cheap boring ones in there now)
- paint (will need to putty and sand walls)
- vegetable garden
- fill for back yard, uneven
- big flower gardens in front of house
- big awesome bedroom furniture and new bedding
- baby bedroom (heh)
- new dark wood rectangle kitchen table
- leather couches for upstairs living room

I think that's enough for now ;)
