Today we unpacked the last of the boxes. There are a few more things to hang but the place finally looks and feels like home. And that feels really good. I’ll share some more pics eventually, but I wanted to…
Movin' on … over
So when you think about stressful life events, I offer you my 2012 for consideration. New job? Started last month. Getting Married? Julyish* Turning 40? September. Let’s add a move to the mix, shall we? The people in the apartment…
Moving day
Off to the new place, which actually has a view of the Philadelphia skyline. Comca$$$$t is coming between 12 and 2, so I SHOULD be connected (tv/internet/telephone combo) tonight. Which, to me, is a priority over … say … television….
Catching up
Catching up (warning: long!)I could lie to you and say I didn’t blog for a week out of respect for President Reagan, but that’d be a big fat lie. Being that I prefer small white lies instead, I’ll tell the…
The deed is done
The deed is done! (but won’t be processed by the county for 6-8 weeks) Ladies and Gentlemen, I present…T—–e Terrace! The mortgage signing (Friday, 5/14) went very smoothly. I took pictures (naturally), and our enthusiasm was only tempered by the…
Guest blog
Dear Kim, It’s me…your Pampered Chef Pizza Stone. I’m writing on behalf of all of your cook and bakeware that you packed away weeks ago in preparation for your impending move. Which is two weeks from today, by the way….

Beastly-long day
Today’s going to be another beastly-long day a la last Tuesday. We’re having a call-in night, where our readers and subscribers can call/email between 5pm and 8pm and speak with the upper management. Which…includes…me, believe it or not. Yes, it…
Breaking the lease and housebuying timeline, updated
I’m not a basketball guru by any means, but I’m told that I’m really NOT out of the NCAA pool since Kentucky lost. Apparently a lot of people picked Kentucky to do well, and basically everyone’s brackets are screwed. Today…
House Inspection and Flower Show
Ooooo….I love the house. OOOooooo…I love the house. OOoooooo….I love the house. Reader, there are rosebushes in the backyard and quite possibly more storage space than what I’m living in right now. There are some problems, yes, but they’re fixable….
Day off
Ah. Day off. I’m blogging leisurely from bed and recovering from yesterday, which can only be called one of the more stressful days of my short managerial existence. But that was yesterday. This morning at 9 we meet our Buyer’s…
