Camera is back!

We are too cheap to pay for cable and we watch most TV shows on the Internet. For the past 2 years Martin has tried to find the best way to watch good TV using our Network. This past weekend he bought a new Router. From my vague understanding that will make our Network work fast; transferring files from one of the 6 computers we have to another work faster. So this is how our living room looked this weekend. I think I am very tolerant when it comes to Martin's messes. He cleaned it up pretty good, it all fit in a Tupperware, in his mind that is cleaned up (So we have hundreds of Tupperware filled with junk in our garage).

This was a picture of the mess taken by Martin, after this was taken the camera disappeared.


Under the box, where the red rectangle is is where I found the camera.

Also this project is still not done!

I would also like to note that he did not dust before putting the TV back...just noticed.

I love you Martin!

Closets

The past weekends have went like this:
-added shelves to both linen closets - meaning everything in closet is out of closet
-went to California - didn't finish closet - everything still out of closet
-Ginger came to visit - didn't finish closet - everything still out of closet
-Martin went to California - didn't finish closet - everything still out of closet

So yesterday I finished the shelves, today I filled them and my life is now partially organized again. I feel slightly better about everything. Now if that stupid garage would just empty itself into a black hole!

Seatbelt Purses


So my husband works at a seatbelt company and he brings me lots of seatbelt home. I made a couple of trash purses but it wasn't until my friend Kari helped me out that I really got inspired. So I made like 4 bags but can't finish them now. They get to thick and I can't sew them. Martin got an old industrial sewing machine from someone he works with but I can't figure out how to thread the stupid thing. This whole thing is frustrating and I give up. but here is a pircture of one bag I almost finished. I like the solid ones best but this on is alright.

Roses

I got four dozen roses on Tuesday for our Anniversary. They are the exact same roses we had at our wedding. I love them. I also got some perfume; Vera Wang Princess. On Sunday night we went to Kona Grill and I forced down some sushi. The other night when we were on a walk Martin asked me, "What are 3 things you have learned about me in the past 2 years?"

My response about him
1. You don't know how to clean
2. You are incredibly handy
3. You are overly logical about almost all things

His response about me
1. You can sew
2. You are practical
3. We work well together on projects

I don't think that those responses where what either of us were expecting but they are definately the truth!

Santa Monica


This past weekend we visited Ginger and Javier in LA. We went to the beach, shopping and hung out. When we went to the beach we didn't bring our swim suits and ended up wanting to go in. So we got new swim suits at the beach. The water was too cold for Charlotte, so she staid on the beach with Ginger and Javier.

Knitting


So at Christmas I learned to knit. I got some yarn from a little shop in downtown Ohio. I finally finished my scarf but I didn't have enough yarn and it is too short. I guess it can be a little kid scarf or a cat scarf LOL.
