update

It has been two days of no Famous Amos so I thought I was ready. I bravely brought down the bin from the attic with my 'regular' pants in them. Here is the update... fat pants need a belt, inbetween pants fit and skinny jeans are still out of reach... but that's progress.

Also we have decided to chuck the wet/muddy couch from the new basement. I was coveting my sister-in-laws new couch when we were there for 4th of July complaining that we never get anything new (can't you just hear me whining?) when Bill reminded me that we haven't paid a cent for our new addition and we have plenty of other unpaid expenses right now and all I can talk about it getting a new couch when the ones we have are fine and we are getting Uncle Tom's old couch as our 'new' couch for the new room when it is done. Ok I said, you're right, I don't need a new couch. Well Bill was going to try to salvage the wet muddy couch but last night at supper Uncle Tom said we should chuck that old couch. So his old couch will go in the basement as a new couch and I'll get a really new couch for the new room. YIPPEE! It will be my first piece of new furniture ever!!
