Ollie loves it here. He likes doing little burnouts on the hardwood downstairs, nearly missing the hard left up the stairs then taking three risers at a time until his hindquarters are pretty much above his head. He's sprinted back and forth across the landing so many times that our carpet has a decidedly lunar feeling. It's fun to finally have enough space for him to demonstrate what a specimen he is, and we still enjoy his antics just as much.
Our DIY project this evening was mini-blinds. Temporary ones, really, because we aren't sure which direction we're going to go but the bedroom needs privacy and shade, and also because Target sells just the right size for $4.49. How is this possible? Even sourcing in China (my new favorite topic) doesn't account for that inexplicability... I think my consumer willingness-to-pay is higher than that. Regardless, they went up quickly and then we had fajitas for dinner and now are e-erranding and unpacking more.
