Send a thank you to the troops

A friend showed me this. It lets you send a Christmas postcard to some troops serving overseas for the holiday, by Xerox. A very good idea if you ask me. http://www.letssaythanks.com/

Wedding album

I've started a wedding album. It's about as good as it's going to get for a little while until I have more time. Most of the pictures aren't professional - they're from friends and family. But since most people want to just see a few picutres, not 800+ the photographer gave us, I'm sure this will suffice. Please let me know through comments or an email if you'd like to see more. Link to the album or click the link on the right.

Picture of the house

Someone pointed out to me I had yet put a picture of the new house on the website. Here ya go.

Zzzzz

We got a new bed today. Pretty. And yes, that's a box for my end table.

Bromeliad

Disclaimer: I'm testing out the ability to make entries via email. So if this looks a little funny, that's why. Things are coming along slowly. Someone told me you really need to take off work about two weeks after a move like ours. I believe it. Not a day goes by I don't think of something that needs to be done. The unpacking is going slower than I want, but with we're both working right now so we only have the evenings to get things done. Yesterday I planted the bromeliad Carla and I bought. This is a plant we bought when we first moved to Florida and put out on the lanai of our apartment, then promptly forgot about. It needed to be re-potted at least twice since we bought it. It bloomed twice, and I swear the thing should be dead, but it's not. I think it's a wonderful symbol of our relationship. Yesterday, I planted it beside our house where it will get a little sun and a lot shade and should be hit by the sprinklers. All the while, I kept thinking abou

Finally someplace to sit

 On Wednesday, Macy's delivered our couch. It stands alone in an otherwise empty living room, but it's beautiful. The wiring guys came in and hooked up our security system (yet another thing the builder messed up on - they had to come in twice and make holes the builder will have to repair.) Verizon came in and installed their FiOS internet and TV services. And Carla's making progress in the kitchen. And I finally started working on my office. Except for a ton of boxes to go through still, this place is starting to be inhabitable.
