recent (little) renovations

today's blog is a few things we (mostly andrew) have been up to recently...

andrew put some laminate flooring in the office (and it's even almost done!) that looks like real hardwoods.
we got the guest bedroom ready for guests (and even had a few over!)... though we haven't repainted the upstairs yet, so it is still seriously blue with a game of tic-tac-toe on the wall.
andrew replaced the threshold for the kitchen, so the door now opens and closes!
we replaced all the nasty bronze-y chrome-y porch light with some nice aged-brass ones.
andrew has a chair to watch tv in... even if he thinks it's uncomfortable.
we have a fridge (and this one doesn't even have giant scratches or dents in it!)
i have a chair to sit in and read in the corner of the living room... though i have yet to use it.
our mantle has stuff on it.
the heinous "dressing room marquis" fixture is gone from the master bathroom.
the scary, clogged, used-by-hippies shower head has been replaced.
andrew wrote his feelings for me in his peas.
i used "simple machines" to help the tiramisu stand up so that andrew could better eat his portion.
... and oh yeah, as of midnight tonight, we've been married a whole year! woohoo!
