mercury

Yes, the mercury is finally dropping! I am sitting here with my window slightly open and I can actually feel a little cold air coming in. Could be due to the fact that it is 34 degrees outside right now. Very nice!

My dad decided to have the sewer line replaced that runs from the house to the street because it was pretty much not working anymore. Not a huge deal, other than the cost, but it doesn't require any work inside your actual house. However, before they started the job, they ran a camera inside the pipes that are inside of the house and found some problems in those as well. Meaning that the basement bathroom had to be ripped out and the floor dug up and some pipes replaced down there. So, seen as how this is what I do (at times) for my job, I spent about three hours Thusrsday and another two or three on Friday gutting the bathroom. It was great fun and quite enjoyable as I have wanted to tear that bathroom up for years. It was a horrible little place. I'll try to get a couple pics up in the next couple of days to share. It really isn't too exciting to look at right now I guess, just a whole lot of nothing and some holes in the floor. But you'll just have to live through it with me. Cause for some reason these are the types of things I enjoy doing...

Not a whole lot else happening. Lived through the first week of basketball practice. Found out Friday that the two missing guys from the jv team are actually eighth graders. They practiced with us on Friday, and they seem pretty good, so they should help us out. But they are eighth graders...always a scary thing.

Also, spent about three hours tonight unpacking bins that I haven't looked in for a year and a half. Found a whole bunch of stuff that I had forgotten I even had and also found some stuff that I have been looking for and could never find when I would actually attempt to dig through things. I now have a good amount of my "library" out on shelves, instead of in storage, and it is kinda nice. Now I just have three more bins to go through, build a shelf thingy (out of some drawer innards I hijacked from work) for my dvds, and figure out where to put all the clothes I found and then I should be done setting up my room. Good times! (oh, and try to get the cable working down here. that would be nice too. but i really haven't had a whole lot of time/interest to even watch much tv lately)


mood: quite content at the moment
