Don't you hate it when people end a sentence with a preposition?

Dude. Things are loco here. With starting the new j-o-b and moving at the same time I barely have time to do anything else. The biggest bummer of all though, is that Veriz*n screwed up my DSL order and instead of being connected on September 5th, it won't be turned on until the 22ND. Kaplooey.

You may think it's easy just moving across the street and all, but we're talking about a major excavation here. We have thrown away three dumpsters full of stuff so far and in most rooms you can hardly tell we've touched anything. Then there's all the crud in my house that has to be sorted through as well. Plus the house hasn't been remodelled or painted since like 1960-something so there's that too.

The Spanish teaching is going great. 99.9% of the kids are normal. More on that later.

I thought I would show some pictures to give you an idea of before and after in the two rooms that are almost done- the living room and the playroom, which used to be just a sunporch. Yes! No more toys (well, almost none) in the living room. Click to bigify pics.





















The ceilings in the house are really cool handmade wood tiles. Check it out.

Yes, you thought you could get rid of me, but I'm still here. Bwah ha ha. And the monkeys looove their new "pwaywoom."

I miss you! And your little blog too.
