It´s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas
Posted By: John & Libby
The past week has been very busy for us. While you have been enjoying company Holiday Parties, thinking of New Years resolutions, and planning ski trips, we’ve been…
Moving into our apartment. (We have some photos of the bare 2 bedroom apartment in our photo gallery.) The move wasn´t too bad, since we don´t have much stuff. However, we have been mostly without water since Saturday. You really learn to appreciate a nice hot shower after 3 days without one!
Becoming intimately familiar with the new Walmart. We have been back there at least once a day since it has opened. Some days we´ve made multiple trips. Thankfully, we´ve now purchased most of the necessities for living in our new apartment.
Planning our “vacation” back to Chicago for Christmas. We’ll be back in town from December 20th-27th. We hope to see as much of our family and friends as possible. We’ve heard that the Midwest is under 9 to 12 inches of snow. Yes, we miss our family and friends enough to put up with that icky snow and cold weather for a while.
Hanging out with some friends from the States. Our friends, Kate and Toni, are down here visiting for a week. They really enjoyed the parade we threw for them on 5th avenue on Sunday evening. Now that our apartment issues appear to be over (cross your fingers!), we hope we’ll have some free time to sightsee with them the next few days.
Moshing with Molotov. Ok, we did somehow end up in the mosh pit during the free Molotov concert (hosted by MTV) on Tuesday evening, but we quickly retreated to a safer location where our friends Megan and Kenny were hanging out. We have some photos of the band and the crowd here.
Hope all is well in your new apartment. The ‘Home Sweet Home’ photo gallery album is empty.
The photo galleries have been fixed.
MERRY CHRISTMAS &
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
May this home be really Sweet for you.
