Incarcerated Santa

Fire Fire Fire!



Jere and I brilliantly decided to make a fire in his fireplace. A nice romantic idea whilst Christy was out grocery shopping. Fabulous idea right? Wrong.

The logs we used were old, rotten, and water-logged (pun). So in order to speed things up we brought out the blow torch. Fabulous idea right? Right!


Ok, I cheated and took the logs out after a while, and replaced it with a nice dry 2x10. That Flamed up like Jere on a Friday night!

Student con job



We, meaning Christy, managed to con 7 students to do 'community service' at some of our houses. We bribed them with 2 day old free donuts and nasty $5 Little Skeezers pizza to come rake leaves at Fuller, Lafayette, and Jere's house.
It worked great!
Actually it was a lot of work, but was made all worthwhile when we headed to the free dump and passed Gay Street. Then turned, phew, onto Straight Street. One of the kids asked where Bi Street was.

Busy + no internet = no blog




Well it has been a while since we've updated our blog. I don't really have much of an excuse except we just moved and didn't have internet for two weeks. I know, I know, I should have used my work computer but I was too busy playing bookworm and shopping online to do that!
We moved on my birfday weekend so needless to say I didn't have much of one. Its ok, I don't really relish turning 30.
Christy and I have been busy with skool lately, getting settled into our new home, and starving ourselves. Yup, because we've become morbidly obese we're back on the South Beach diet. I lost 10.6 lbs in a week, and Christy lost about 5. So she's down to 208! Whoo hoo, I can almost wrap my arms around her when I give her a hug. I'm so proud.
She'd kill me if was true...I can just feel her rolling her eyes as she reads this.

Well, gotta go post some sweet pics.
