Some snow, but mainly sleet. None of it is sticking, but some is accumulating in the valleys of the roofs. Haven't seen this stuff down here in years!

I got home yesterday to find a strange package addressed to MWSCOG, Inc. Upon opening it up, I find this sweet little USB christmas tree. It lights up in 6 different colors (all not pictured here!) smothly transitioning from one to the next. Also in the gift note was every #hiptop cliche I'd ever heard hehehe. I'm gonna have to stick this one on top of my cube wall!

Very cool! Thanks Ben! =)

Got 'er done!
this picture is owned by the submitter. contact submitter for permission before using it in any wayAfter fabbing of brackets a bit of wrestling, the cooktop and downdraft vent are done. Works great, I tested it out by cooking a bowl of ramen! =) Seeing this thing deploy out of the counter and retract back in is about a 9.5 on the cool-o-meter, and also very in keeping with Shelly's desire to have a kitchen with a clean look.

Well, almost. I have the stove hooked up so we can use it, but the downdraft vent isn't operational yet. We also have to buy a faucet and install that....and I have to hook up all the plumbing, garbage disposal...weeeee!

Got the crappy old linoleum removed and porcelain tile laid in the kitchen. What a nice improvement! Next will be tile around the living room and down the hall. I'm still amazed that just 36 hours ago, that linoleum was there. These guys are fast!
