When the Cat's Away...

Derek and Kirk left for North Dakota on Thursday, so it was just Reggie and me hanging out this weekend. I had great plans of relaxing by the pool, watching movies, etc., but instead, my weekend filled up quickly with house-related stuff.

I finally found a comforter and pillows for our day bed in the office (thanks to Target). I also hung a lot of pictures, painted our half bath, and got our guest room ready for my parents' visit next weekend.

In other very exciting news - I finally got a CAR!!!!!!!!!! It has been two years since I sold Gretta (the Jetta), and in these two years, I have taken just about every form of public transportation you can imagine. Since we moved to our new house, Kirk and Derek have been giving me a ride to the metro, which has worked out fine, but I think we were all ready for me to get a car. I feel like I just turned 16 again!!! I forgot how nice it is to be able to have control and leave for work whenever you want. I also forgot what it was like to listen to the radio and my iPod. So in short, I am very excited about my new wheels.

Here are some pics from the weekend:

And finally...my new (to me) ride!
