One month (and a couple weeks) to go!

This weekend finds us finishing up a bunch of projects around the house. You know, the ones that have to be done in 2-hour increments, or require ventilation, or are just outside of yelling distance from the bedroom and baby room. This means the garage is organized and the back yard has some holes in it from where the fence posts are leaning from Ike. The baby room is mostly set now that the crib and mattress are in place, and almost every room now has a ceiling fan in it.

The projects remaining? I have plans for fixing up the Jeep before I sell it and resign the fact that I'll be driving an economical and safe baby-mobile (i.e. Jeep Unlimited? Maybe not.) It's also about time to start getting Mama's bags packed for the hospital, and all of those great gifts washed and assembled. And now that Halloween is past us, it's even socially acceptable to start thinking about putting up some Christmas decorations early. We even had our first night in the forties a week ago! (those don't last for long) So, even though there are a lot of projects to do still, the important ones are done, and I can pay attention to the daily grind (while getting better at using our new camera). It's about time I got a routine. Yes, Alanis, I won't get used to it.

Oh, and real quick... Vote stats: yellow box, random pics: flickr badge. Both on left column of this page. The Vimeo link ("daily grind", above) is a new way to embarrass ourselves I'm trying out. Like YouTube, but HD.
