On a happier note
Me & Mikey hit the furniture stores yesterday to distract ourselves from our woes.
Found a very nice TV cabinet at the first one, a Bassett loveseat at the second one, and two nightstands and a dresser to match our crazy big bed at the third one.
Our home will be no longer be underfurnished, once the bedroom furniture gets delivered on Wednesday. Well, except for the dining room -- it's still empty except for my aquarium and our crazy big buffet, but I'm not in any hurry to fill it. I've grown used to having lots of open space since we bought this house, and I don't want to start feeling claustrophic in it.
The winner of the Great Coffee Table Search of 1997 turned out to be a fortuitous choice. It's a drop-leaf that makes an oval when the sides are flipped up, so there aren't any sharp corners for Brittany to crack her head on, now that she's finally starting to cruise around it a little bit.
Bookcases -- we still need bookcases. We have tons of books stacked in the office closet that need to get off the floor and onto shelves. Dammit! That's what we forgot to look for yesterday...

One day, George Bush Sr. caught George W chopping down a cherry tree in the White house gardens. When George Sr. asked him why he had done it, George W replied, "Father, I can not tell a lie. I thought it was a weapon of mass destruction!!"
Sending you a journal document from 1879 to 1884. It is one Mennonite families memories of the journey across Russia to America. I found it in Paul Burleson's papers and thought it might interest you. I'm sending it snail mail so you can have the original. Hope all is well. You're in our prayers. Love you guys.
