i've been trying to get the house in some semblance of order for a few weeks now. i'm going through rooms (or trying to when i have the energy, i'm starting to lose it again) and getting rid of things that have piled up for years and we haven't used, and organized things. the kitchen was a huge task, but one of my first. it's not done yet though, i ( Read more... )

and by goodness i mean HOLY CRAP OUR SEATS ARE IN THE CLOUDS. :P at nascar events, closer is not better. closer means you see less of the track. further and higher is where the awesome seats are. and let me tell you - we had the most awesome seats in the house :) chris mentioned that they were like 225 feet in the air - it felt every last one of ( Read more... )

that's how i feel. still overwhelmed, but... i dunno. punctuated by moments of greatness. it's like darkness with the sun beating through. it'll come eventually, and it's nice to see progress. it's just slow. another few weeks and i should be a-ok. hopefully ( Read more... )

got into the 501st finally (yey) :) immediately started modding my helmet, i had wanted to wait so that if i needed more pictures it wouldn't be in pieces. hopefully i'll get most of it done this weekend, as i already got a good amount done last night. i also ordered the helmet, and i'm going to hit the home depot over lunch today to get some ( Read more... )
