On my own

Jonathan is off to San Antonio this afternoon for a bike to the beach. Randy (our brother-in-law) and Jonathan are riding their road bikes from San Antonio to Corpus Christi, it's to raise money for MS. Mostly they just wanted to do some big miles on the road. It's a 2 day ride totaling 160 miles... I think.

So I'm at the house by myself this weekend. I hope to get the house clean, knit a little baby hat for the newest arrival in the family (a little girl named Nicole), and possibly paint the babies room. I have a busy day tomorrow with watching the football game and all but today and Sunday are mostly free.

House Poject List

We have several things that we'd like to do around the house before our little man arrives. We have to figure out how to pay for some of it but we plan on doing all the work ourselves.

• new (to us) washer and dryer. (We just moved these in yesterday!)
• spare bath: tile the floor, tile the counter and put in 1 sink (this is where the changing table will go), paint cabinets.
• recessed lighting in the living room (and maybe the dining room too).
  
• get study cleaned out, spare room organized, and baby room ready. (this is a work in progress but it seems never ending.) We need space for all the crap that comes with having a baby.
• new TV computer. Jonathan will build it but this is probably the most expensive one.
  
• master bath remodel: new tub, floors, and shower. (this probably won't happen before the baby comes, but one can hope.)
