Hope things have been well for you all. The Sax household has been busy, as usual, with work, school and the house! I can't believe the infinite amount of work that needs to be done on our house. I suppose we could leave it the way it is and be satisfied with an average house, but we want spectacular! hah!
This weekend Alex (sister-in-law) and I went out to shop for oriental rugs to go under our piano and in the living room. We went to one place and noted the prices for an authentic wool and silk rug...$10,200. YEAH RIGHT! Who can afford that? Who wants to afford that? We ended up at Lowe's and found a pretty artificial rug with low pile for $138.00. Much better! I am more than a little bummed that we have to wait 7 days to put down rugs and furniture. The polyurethane is taking longer than we thought, but better to wait than to have dented floors!
Alex and I also figured out Christmas and birthday presents for Erik and a few other people. She also helped me pick out our very 1st anniversary gift. I think he will like it. :)
Marc and Cynthia are stopping through tonight and Thursday (my guess is they are on their way up to CT). I don't know where we will house them, but we'll find some room.
On Friday my dearest friend from Scotland flies in for 10 days!!!! I am so excited and have been buying weird little presents so we can celebrate her birthday in style. For her last birthday we were in Thailand together and spent the day snorkeling and speed boating around the islands. Oh, how I wish we were there right now!

Say hi to CR for me. If your shopping at Lowes, I could use some new screw drivers, we seem to keep losing ours. Just kidding. Can't wait to hear what the 1st anniversary gift is.
