John Rocks

So my friend Angela has a husband named Aaron (also known as ATB). Actually, he is the only husband she has, so I guess I could have just said her husband's name is Aaron. Anyway... on her blog she has started posting a new ATB Rocks blog each week to show him gratitude for the many helpful things he does. I think this is a fabulous idea, and I've decided that John deserves some public appreciation too!


John actually has two projects he has recently completed that both turned out spectacular!







These are the can lights he installed in the Man Room. You actually have to cut holes in the ceiling to do this! Yikes! But he did a marvelous job. He even installed a separate dimmer light switch for them.







The other project was constructing a pool cue rack. He bought wood and trim and paint and ta-da, a masterpiece.







Fine job Dear, You Rock!!!

Brain Buster

Last weekend John & I went to the mall to take a copy of our marriage license to Kay Jewelry so my name could be changed on my account. (Yes, I know... we've been married for over three years now - but they are one of the only places that won't let you change your name by phone or online.) So anyway, after that was done we had some free time, so we went to the game store. These game stores are one of John's favorite places to go. But this time it was me who found a fun new game to get!

I like puzzles and thinking games. Sudoku is one of my favorites, and this fancy Brain Buster Puzzle Pak seemed like hours of fun! So I bought it (the used version of course). I set up my profile and added my little character picture to my name (and I made one for John too) then I played for two whole hours! It was great fun for me and got my brain wheels really turning. Slitherlink is my least favorite of the games, but I haven't really picked a favorite yet.

Note to self (and others) - Don't play this for very long right before bed, or you will not be able to fall asleep. You will be too busy trying to figure out what combination of numbers equals 16.

We finally have a full dining room set! Since this picture was taken, John has assembled the other two chairs as well. So we have a big table, 8 chairs and enough plates and silverware for all to eat off of! YEAH!

Here's a picture of Skinny, Tina, and Moose this afternoon. I think there was a flying bug outside the window that Skinny & Moose were watching, and of course Tina had to come check it out too!

Here are John & Pinky on Halloween. They dressed up as two of the characters from Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along-Blog John is Captain Hammer and Pinky is Dr. Horrible.
