Well, school is winding down and life seems to have a couple of more open moments, so I thought I would update people again. This week during one of my classes I gave this blog a new look! What do you think? I had a couple of complaints from some "older" folks that they couldn't read my blog when it had a black them with white text. I don't know why they had a problem. I turn thirty in a few weeks and I could still read it just fine. Yet, I aim to please, so the new look is here to stay. I also added some of my blogging friends to the sidebar, so check them out. They aren't always the best at updating, but neither am I, so what can I say!!
In other news, Mesha and I have been busy on the house, but feel like nothing real is actually being accomplished. I think hanging some drapes and putting up more Christmas decorations are top on the list for this weekend. That should be an interesting process in the Torkelson household. Mesha looks to me to get out my power tools and go to town on these projects, but (and she does really know this) I am not really that skilled in the power tool area. It is actually quite comical to see, when I "do a project." What it basically turns out to be, is Mesha using my height and strength like a machine to get the project done. She tells me how to do it, then I think I know better and try it my way and then end up doing it her way, which usually works best in the end anyway! (I know that was a run on sentence. In case Julie is reading this) Anywho, hopefully soon both Mesha and I will feel comfortable having more people come by the house. It will be so fun to entertain all you that live near enough to come. For those who live far away (like the Cannons in Alaska) we'll have to post some pics! I hope everyone is taking time to actually enjoy this incredible season of the year. Happy Holidays! (Don't worry, I'll say Merry Christmas when we get closer!)
