On the Road

josh | January 5, 2009

I left work two hours ago. About 65 minutes ago I got off the freeway at 5600 West. Since then, I’ve traveled a grand total of 1.3 miles. The good news is that I only have 6.8 miles left until I get home. Ugh.

Cold

Uh, my car takes a while to warm up. After thirty minutes of driving this morning, I barely had enough heat to defrost the windshield.

Frugal

You know, I’ve just realized that I’ve only eaten out one time in the last 10 days. Anybody who knows me can attest to the fact that this is truly amazing. I’ve even been bringing frozen meals for lunch. Oh and I’ve lost even more weight. Yay me!

Finally finally finally, the floor is complete! I’ve still got a bunch of baseboard to install but at least the floor is done. Along with that getting finished today, a new railing was installed along the stairs to replace the pony wall. It looks fantastic and really opens up the entry way, [...]

Now that our basement is done (for the most part) we have started devoting time to the upstairs. We ripped up the carpet yesterday and the hardwood floor started getting put down today.

I’ve included the photo with this post.

Tonight’s Musical Selection

josh | November 12, 2008

Tonight, I’ve been listening to the following:
Van Morrison - Into the Mystic
The Wallflowers - Into the Mystic
I’m trying to decide which version of that song I like better. Either way, they’re both on my five star playlist.
Dave Mathews Band - DMB Live Trax album
This album is phenomenal. I don’t like a ton of [...]

Phoning it in

josh | November 12, 2008

You know, I bought Melanie an iPhone back in April. All this time, I’ve been using my work BlackBerry while she had the iPhone and I finally got tired of being jealous of it. When I got my prize money a few weeks ago for that weight loss competition that I won, I [...]

final

josh | November 10, 2008

I had my final follow-up doctors appointment today with the surgeon who performed my surgery.  While the bone is still a little loose and I can feel it in my teeth when I push on the bone at the corner of my eye, I’m doing remarkably well.  The headaches are dissipating and the discoloration beneath [...]
