So we bought a house on November 30th and I’ve found myself obsessing over home projects. I don’t even know what I’m doing for the most part but I’m obsessed none-the-less. My parents were up for two weeks during the holiday and we spent a lot of time building on my basement. I now have a pretty good Idea what I want to do to finish my basement out but I want to do it quick so I can get my LEGO out of my freezing cold garage.
Does cold hurt LEGO? I feel like I should know the answer to that…sigh I fail at my job.
Anyways, we put up a bunch of dry wall and my dad put a soffet around the duct work (looks mega good). now I just have a whole liteny of other things to take care of and eventually I’ll get it there. Its way fun though being able to alter the house in semi permanent ways for my own enjoyment. hooray!
I had a great Christmas and got some good stuff for sure. My wife got me some great sweaters and my inlaws bought me all sorts of TCU gear (go frogs). My parents bought all the materials for redoing the basement so I was happy with that side of it for sure.
My wife got Mario Brothers Wii which is incredible. Its essentially Mario Brothers 3 but spruced up and given new features. MB3 was my favorite of the Marios growing up (well until Mario World, and then Mario 64 was also nice) but it was still a great one. I remember it most playing it with my sister.
Anyways, Holidays were good and now I’m just prepping for my meeting in billund in a few weeks.

“holdays” must be one of those New England things.
Glad you’re enjoying your house – remember, it’s a constant process and will never be done.
