We just finished our Labor day party in our new house. It was really a good time. Thanks, to everyone who came and brought food. It couldn’t have been a better day. The pool water could have been a little warmer though. It was nice to have a house that is big enough to have [...]

Last night we got the final copies of our contract to sell and put a bid on another house. The sellers have until 5:00 pm tonight to counter or accept. We really like this house, so I hope they like our offer.

I purchased one Media Center Extender for our bedroom that we use quite a bit. I am wanting to put one in the living room so that I don’t have to connect the Media Center directly to the TV. While researching this I realized that I couldn’t add my music or pictures to the extender [...]

It really brightens my day when I read about Apple’s iTunes servers crashing and people having to wait hours to get their beloved iPhones.

Today was the first day I rode my bike to work. It was really fun. Ryan and I rode from his house and it took us about 30 minutes. We got lost in 2 neighborhoods. We should be able to do it quicker next time.
