New books!

I'm pretty savvy with pop culture and I think I always have been. I guess that reading all those issues of Tiget Beat and Teen Bop must have done me some good because I'm always the first one to get a right answer for any kind of pop culture related question at bar trivia or just in general. So, I was really surprised a while back when one of my friends texted me about some new Sweet Valley High books that are coming out.

I went online to verify it was true, because I couldn't believe that I hadn't heard about it before her. Especially because that was my favorite book series growing up after the Baby Sitters Club books. After I found out from enough reliable sources online or decide that it was true, I saw this website http://www.clearwirelessinternet.com and started reading through it. I like it better from the looks of it than the internet company that I was using at the time, so I switched over to it.

Now I can't wait for the new Sweet Valley High books and I think that they're going to be great, especially for all of us old fans!

Post Break: Furniture shopping fun

I am in the process of looking new living room furniture. The reason being is that I plan on purchasing a home next spring or summer. If I can afford it now, I rather get the living room furniture now and then when it comes time to move, I will have something nice and comfortable to sit on at the new house. I will be looking for a couch that has a sleeper. I like to have that because I have family out of town. It would be nice to have a place for my family to sleep if they choose to stay over.

I like to find something in a darker color due to the fact that I have a dog that sheds a lot. Having darker living room furniture will not show any of the hair that will shed from the dog. I am looking for something in my price range of no more than $1100. However, if I find something that I like that cost a bit more, I will simply try and set up a payment plan. But I think that the best thing that will happen is when I go home and sit down and watch some direct tv, envisioning how it will be on my new furniture.

Post Break: Night at the theater

I want to start out by saying that I love my husband, LOVE. But when it has been so long that you can not remember the last time you guys left the house sans kids then something is up. Which is why we were thrilled when my dear husband's boss offered him two free tickets to the musical Chicago. We immediately found a sitter (neighbor girl from down the street) and made reservations at our favorite restaurant. I use to go to the theater all the time but had never seen Chicago and had never been to the New York Theater.

During my college years I would frequent the theater any time I got a little extra money. It was mostly low budget things or productions put on by my college so I was extra excited to go see a real show that had a real budget. Going to a theater as fancy as the New York Theater required a new dress for me and a new suit for the husband. The night of the play we tucked our beautiful children into bed and showed the sitter how to set the home security alarm (Adt home alarm prices Detroit). Having it on makes us less anxious about leaving them at home. We had a lovely night out, the weather was perfect and I could not have asked for a better performance at the theater.
