We got back from Costco a bit ago. There are things there that would make my house a bit better. A TV in the kitchen. A handmade Italian glass platter. Brother TAPE cartridges for my label machine. Just to name a few.<\/p>\n
Of course the TV issue is a DirecTV problem, having an old dish and using all 4 feeds we have from it (split into 4 from 2) and not having a third box to use and not wanting a non-pause-able DirecTV box at all. We’ve had DirecTivo boxes for so long now. There is no other way to watch TV (except on DVD, or downloaded digital files, of course.)<\/p>\n
The thing about my house is that it is just so small and the kitchen is so in need of being more completed, lighting, counters, island configuration, and so on. Part of my family wants to do this and part that and I fit in nowhere. Then baby comes along, tired of being there or with them and then I have nothing to do, it’s dark and it’s just me, him, and this icky kitchen and table area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
