More stuff

So I did finally get around to painting yesterday. YAY! I only have a little bit left in the bedroom I was working on and then I hit the bathroom. I'm so glad that we're getting closer to getting that place ready - this weekend we should be really close to being done and then we can get it on Craigslist and get that thing rented out!

We're in a bit of a dilemma regarding buying a house. We'd like to move out of our duplex, and really now is the time to buy, but it's not the time to sell. And we'd rather not have to deal with two tenants when one is sometimes more than enough and we both work full time. So we think, it's not really the time to sell but having the equity out of our home would make it easier to buy our next home...and we' d really like to be mortgage free all together and sharing our mortgage with our tenants is the way to do it...blah, blah, blah. We looked at a house last night just a few houses down from a great friend of mine, and now I'm super tempted to just deal with tenants, buy that house and then sell ours when the market picks up again. But...then i don't want to do the work to get ours ready to sell...oh blast, I'm stuck in this circle. Did I just say blast?

We took our dogs over to visit with Rebecca and Tim and their kids and little dog last night. It was pretty funny - and chaotic. The dogs were running all over the house - their dog running from ours. Harley was trying to sniff Murdoch, and Pike was trying to...um...not sniff...I should keep this PG. Anyway...we got a laugh out of them, and Harley didn't attack anyone - except my friend's little boy - he put his little feet on Cade's chest and just started licking his face like it was going out of style...cute.

Then we headed over to John's cousins' house - who just happen to be the parents of our little godson, Matthew. We had borrowed chains from them for camping a couple of weeks ago and thought we'd better return them - so glad we had them! We had a good time visiting and P&H got another new house to sniff all over. The dogs had a big day!

Then we came home and unloaded our Costco stuff (Most of which was defrosting in a hurry) and went to bed! What an exciting day - eh? More exciting then what we've been doing all week - watching "Deadliest Catch" until 9:30 and then heading to bed. We're such old people - be warned, this is what happens when you both work at 7:00 in the morning!
