Continuing in the theme of spending every penny on our new home...
We ordered carpet tiles Friday night. Flor was having a 15% off sale that we wanted to make sure we didn't miss. Of course, the sale ended at 1am eastern time and we were placing our order at approximately 12:57am. Which is further evidence that we suck.
Anyway, we ordered Rake Me Over in Lime for the livingroom:
and Favorite Jeans in Black Label for the kitchen:
We are expecting the tile to arrive sometime this week and trying like hell to have our crap organized and put away by the time it arrives so that we can put the tiles down and make sure they work and we like them, etc.
I am pretty sure that we will love it but until it gets here and we see it I'm a little anxious. We need to move past our $20 IKEA area rugs and get some decent stuff down on the floor. (Note: we are using the carpet tiles to make area rugs, we're not covering up our hardwood floors, don't worry. No, we have not lost our minds.)
Wish us luck!
Questions about my new weblog platform?...
Glad you asked. It's a super awesome new platform for creating weblogs or any other dynamic site created by my genius boyfriend Rob (robreed at gmail dot com). Email him and tell him how awesome he is.
Why you should visit this site regularly
Because I'm right about everything. If you disagree, I don't care.
What's going on right now
I swear, someday we will be done fixing things and moving in. Maybe before our 2 year anniversary of moving in, which will be December 31, 2011. For pete's sake. I hope so. I made a Homeownership category on this blog but it is woefully out of date. I will try to keep it current, though. The process of fixing things and putting things where they belong continues.
We adopted two kitties from the Animal Rescue League of Boston in the fall of 2010. Molly is a sweet black and white/piebald kitty who was found on the streets as a stray. Katie is a torbie/Maine Coon who was confiscated in a hoarding case where there were 98 cats total. Both are great in their own way. Hopefully at some point they will realize that about each other. Every once in a while I catch them grooming each other nicely but usually they are tackling each other. Or, rather, Katie is tackling Molly and Molly is hissing and smacking the hell out of her. Katie is not quite a year old so she has to outgrow some kitten tendencies. Hopefully as she mellows they can become better friends.
In Memory of Billy the dog
Best.Dog.Ever. 1995-2009.
Many of you knew or knew of Billy. We miss him a lot but his memory lives on, especially thanks to this blog.
Here are some favorites:

In Memory of Emily the kitty
Greatest kitty in the world! 1992-2010.
Many of you probably have heard Emily stories. She was a sweet and funny cat who seemed to get more personality every year. Imagine how much she had by the time she was 17 and a half years old!
