Curtains...finally!

I have wanted to put up curtains since I moved into my house over 3 years ago but could never find ones I liked. Well, I like them. I just got done putting up all the fixtures and making them look somewhat even. I think I might actually be done with the living room.

So I am downstairs switching the laundry today and I come up and Sasha is napping on my end table between the couches. Really...does she think she can just sleep where ever she wants.
Oh yeah - I forgot - she does get to sleep where ever she wants. Spoiled Dog!

Quote of the Day!!!

I think many of you will appreciate this quote. I saw it on the bottom of an email from a customer and felt I needed to share...

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

I hope every one has a good day.

My new deck

So I am a little behind but here it is, the deck my dad built me. It is so perfect for my little house. I can't wait until next summer when I can sit back and enjoy it. Thanks Dad, I am still loving it.

I think it will be a while until Sasha can lounge on it again in the sun...It is now covered in snow. Maybe it will melt and she can go back to enjoying it.

Also, I finally got my screen door and the construction for the year is officially over. Thank goodness. This summer was a busy one but it is all done even the electricity in the garage and the new garage door opener. I have only had it for 4 days but I can't remember what it was like without it. Thanks again dad for installing it. I was glad you could take the time to install it during a Vikings game (don't worry I won't mention how they lost to THE BEARS!)

Well that is all I have for now...

Congratulations Christi and Dusty

Cycle to Break the Cycle

Last weekend September 6th Mom and I rode in the 2nd Annual Cycle to Break the Cycle. It is a 17 mile bike ride raising money for the Domestic Abuse Center. We rode last year also (in the rain). This year was cold but it was dry. I think we did this years ride in 15 minutes less than last year and there was 99 riders this year versus 82 last year.

About half way through the ride this year mom and I switched bikes and I got to ride her bike that is only 1 year old. Lets just say next year we are going to finish much faster because I am getting a new bike. That bike was great. Thanks Mom. I am sure the bike shop thanks you also for the sale. Do you think they will cut you the commission check for the sale?
