outside pictures!

way more fun than the inside!

awesome peach trees! wow, that's a fuzzy picture, sorry, it was a windy day.

the backyard
The garden over to the left contains : lettuce, spinach, yellow squash, tomatoes(thanks rebekah), and various other yummy veggies. That's the garage there in the back.

back of the house

Scary cellar!

more pictures - just like i promised

You'll have to excuse the mess. Everything got moved in and then I noticed I don't have anywhere to store anything. There are only two "closets" in the house which are not even deep enough to hold regular sized hangers. So, the boxes stay until I put up some shelves.

Front view



living room area
The previous owner had the dining room here, but since I 1) do not "dine" very frequently and 2) like to be able to watch tv while I'm in the kitchen, I have decided to make this room the living room. It's my house, I can do what I want. :)


We'll call this the office since my computer is sitting in it.


Master bedroom with the two tiny closets


Still missing: pics of the kitchen, bedroom #2, and the hallway.

third time's the charm

Finally!! Look at it - isn't it pretty much the coolest house you've ever seen? :)

This picture is only here to whet your appetite for more pictures to come this weekend. Speaking(or should I say, typing) of this weekend, if you are not busy, or even if you are, come by and bring a broom or a mop or anything else and help me get this place spic and span! Cleaning party!

See the map below for directions. I'm sure I'll be there all weekend.

Just a few shots from the backyard

I like these little flowers that grow in the woods, I may have to steal some and take them with me.

'Tis that wonderful time of year when there is always something to watch on tv and business productivity comes to a screeching halt. Thank you CBSsportsline.com for showing live games on the internet so I can pretend I am feverishly working on an Excel spreadsheet when, in reality, I am watching to see if my upset picks are going to pan out. Can YOU pick the Cinderella team this year? Let's see.

I had thought about starting a real pool, you know, with money and all, but at this point I'm thinking good ol' trash talking and playing for bragging rights are enough to keep me entertained. So click on the link and join my tourney group! You'll have to create an account if you don't have one, and if you somehow navigate away from the group page before you join, the group info is below. Be patient, sometimes it's slow.

If you can't figure it out, let me know. Games start on the 20th, but I recommend getting your picks in soon because the site really bogs down right before the first game.

Did you know - the last time both teams that played in the national championship game didn't qualify for the NCAA tourney the next year was in 1980 after Michigan State beat Indiana State in 1979. Bonus - what two future stars played on those teams?

Good luck!
