Tired

Quick weekend recap – we didn’t really do anything this weekend 🙂  On the flip side we did get lots of relaxing done – can check that off the list!  My work holiday party was Saturday night so we did at least get out of the house a bit – even dressed up.

Also – no picture yet but my carport is up and bungeed to the back porch stairs because the ground was too frozen to really stake it down well. 🙂  Bring on the snow – well – Wednesday – wait till Wednesday when I plan to work from home… then bring it on.

Today I got up early and got into work nice and early like I used to.  That meant I could leave before 5, get up, put away all the rest of the xmas ornaments (of course I forgot one!), then go to the gym with Ryan.  We’ll see how long this productive streak lasts – any bets for a 1 day streak???

And now it’s just about time to play some StarCraft II with my brother before heading to bed early – hoping I can get up at 6am tomorrow but not counting on it.

The end of vacation

Today was our last day off and it was a day full of wrapping things up.  In the morning we ran errands, after lunch I spent some time setting up our new router which arrived.

We finally dragged ourselves into action and got some wiring done.  We wired the the cable/ethernet lines in the livingroom, the switch for the recessed lights in the cupola and ran a feed line to the sconce lights in the stairway.

After I got all the wires secured I hooked up the tvroom ethernet lines to the patch panel and put the new router and modem in the basement.  Finally I hooked up our new Roku player (wired through the patch panel) so now we can watch hulu plus and amazon movies on TV without hooking up my computer.  The Roku player was a gift from my brother for Christmas.

Hopefully our exterior lights will arrive before next weekend so we can get the boxes up for those.  In the meantime I need to find someone to get an estimate on insulation – very close now!
