House







I thought I better post this before I don't have a computer for awhile. We closed on our house Saturday and Tobin, Doug, and I (and the girls), stripped and refinished 900 square feet of oak floors. Thursday is move in day. It is a 4 bedroom, 2 full bath Cape Cod style house. Great Yard. Garage (which isn't common out here). And it is going to be a lot of fun...aka a lot of work.

Christmas is Coming; or, What to Read?

Since the epic fail that was our attempt to use GoodReads as a family, it ocurred to me that I am not really aware of what everyone is reading these days, or interested in reading in coming days. For me, the list is more or less only two-deep at the moment, and I don't have either, yet.

1. Agassi's autobiography (which, I assume, everyone will want to read).
2. Bill Simmons' the Book of Basketball (which, I assume, no one will want to read, except maybe Ryan, and which I will get a signed copy of at the book signing in a couple of weeks.)

Of course, I am always willing to drool over the Joseph Smith Papers Project volumes 1 & 2, but they are a bit pricey and more of a long-term reading project.

How about you folks?
