Thank goodness Christmas is over with....I spent the better part of December working on Kim's "theater room" and Zhi Wei's bedroom painting projects. Oh, and Katie's bathroom painting, as well. Yes, I am exhausted and tired of painting, but am also pretty happy with the results. There's nothing like a fresh coat of paint to make things seem new and clean.
I came home from church yesterday hoping to have a relaxing day of doing NOTHING but watch TV, but to my dismay, the shelf in my entertainment center had spontaneously combusted!! The shelf above my TV had broken and my stereo, DVD player, cable box and all my DVD's and CD's were sprawled on top of the television. It took me a while to untangle the mess of wires and hook-ups. It appeared that the board just snapped in half--for no apparent reason. It happened some time between midnight and 2:20pm on Sunday, Wierd happenings around my house. It has prompted me to clean out all the unnecessary junk in the house. That will be the plan for this week. I'm hoping to go through every cupboard and drawer and trash anything that is unused or unnecessary.
I'll keep you posted on the progress.
