it was such a beautiful day that monday. took peanut to the park and all she wanted to do was ride the swings and go down the slide. two weeks prior she HATED the swings. toddlers are weird. it was also minty's first day in bay ridge! she came by to decompress and use the wifi. i'm so glad she's my new neighbor!

woke up really grumpy and then my LL turned off the water so that they could replace a boiler downstairs. it was a tough day without water, but the workers were fast and i was able to get around to everything eventually.

thursday, oct 23

spent the evening working on popknits, backing up my computer, and watching star trek voyager (yes, i'm a geek, so what?) in the office while KP played call of duty 4.

it was also my mom's 60th birthday! happy birthday gamma!

friday, oct 24

tackled a mountain of laundry the likes of which i hope to never have to do again. i hate doing laundry.

saturday, oct 25

my parents and brother came down to bay ridge for the day to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday. they brought my favorite chairs with them and they are now installed in the office. i can now knit in peace!

i took the initiative to go down to the hardware store and buy two 8-packs of CFL bulbs. i'm hoping to reduce our electricity bill by making the switch. we noticed that once i started staying home, our bill got out of control. our old place had built-in track lighting that i couldn't replace the bulbs in, but in our new place, i can replace them in almost every room! we'll see what november's bill is like.
