Volume 1: Moving In







Today, we built a fort, ok so that wasn’t the only thing, but it was a highlight. We started with watching mummy returns and then we had lunch. We went to the dollar store and bought a hammer, nails, a screwdriver, and a shower curtain! Heheh… Amanda just thought I said a shot gun… unfortunately…or maybe fortunately, they don’t sell shot guns at the dollar tree. (I’m beginning to think that it was a crazy idea for us to move in together) After we got home, I put together my vanity and put it the perfect spot in the bathroom. I love having a big bathroom! I organized my bathroom stuff, and then moved on hanging pictures. Amanda helped me put together a collage with my frames for above my bed… well when my bed gets here. As I was actually hanging them on the wall, Amanda started to build a fort with all the toilet paper rolls that had fallen out of the bag. After she had built a wall, she continued to build around my bed mattress with items that were in my room. The funniest thing about this, is when all the rolls fell out of the bag last night, I asked her what we were going to do with all this toilet paper and the first thing she said was “build a fort!” and then started throwing them at me. Back to building the fort…she finished by closing me in with my printer and a box of envelopes at the foot of my bed. She then pointed and laughed at me and the fact that I was “trapped”. Then we both collapsed on the floor (inside the fort) and started laughing hysterically at ourselves after she proclaimed “I can fit too!”.
Though it may not sound like it, we have gotten a lot of things completed the last two days…. Like what….wait a second, lemme think…. Nah! I’m just kidding, My closet is organized, and Amanda got all of her stuff moved out of the living room into her room, which means, the living room is almost clean and we can move all our furniture in there. Amanda turned a closet into a vanity. See, the bathroom by the girl’s rooms is really small and there is a closet for everything outside of it, so Amanda was thinking and she made that closet into a vanity so one can be doing makeup while the other is taking a shower. It’s quite clever, take a look…Last night we had an awesome thunder storm. We even had hail for like 5 minutes. It was WiCKeD! (As Amanda says) Yesterday I got our utilities turned on, made copies for rob, unloaded my car, AND talked to Rich’s boss for an application. We also sanitized EVERYTHING, even the shower curtain rod… did you know it was silver… we didn’t when we walked in, then Amanda cleaned it.Well, I need to get going so I can get some work done for Rob. I’ll talk to you later!
