yesterday

Yesterday, I took advantage of the nice weather and took the afternoon off work.

First on the agenda–running to Somerset with my mom and Jake to pick up our annual side of beef. This was the first side of beef we’ve bought since we got our upright freezer–that sure made my life easier.

Next, I planted garlic in my garden (finally–I seem to do that later and later each year). It sure was a beautiful day for gardening. I only wish I would’ve had more to do in the garden.

After that, I vacuumed the vehicles and installed some rubber floor mats in preparation for the winter. I was hoping to Armorall the interiors and clean the windows, but ran out of time. With any luck, I’ll catch another nice day next week and finish up. Brian’s outside right now trying to wash and wax before the rain comes. Ideally, I would finish up my end of the cleaning today, but we have a lot going on, so I don’t think I’ll have time. Here’s to hoping for another nice day this week–is it too much to ask for?

The weather is nice
It is warm for November
No complaints are heard

gin!

Rumsfeld quits.

Democrats take control of the house.

Democrats take control of the senate.

And, to top things off, I was pretty pleased to see how our local elections panned out. Maybe this democracy thing works after all.

the good girl

We watched this movie last night courtesy of Blockbuster. I thought it was a pretty good film, if you like character studies. Brian, on the other hand, didn’t like it at first, but after thinking about it all day, decided it was a decent movie.

Jennifer Aniston starred, and this was definitely her best movie role to date. As it turns out, she really can act. Who knew?
