Bitter sweet.

Well, we finally got our couches in from Ashley's. We ended up renting a U-haul monday to go pick them up because we figured it would be cheaper than paying $85 to have them delivered. I saved maybe $10 and wasted hours of my time. Next time I'll pay for delivery. We love our couches except as you can see our love seat has a broke frame. We noticed it as we were putting on the little wooden pegs after about 15 minutes of getting them home. We called Ashley's and they said that we would have to pay an extra $80 to have someone come look at it to see if they can fix it. They sell me a broken couch, then want an extra $80 to come look at it to tell me "yup, it's broken alright"? We emailed some pics to them so hopefuly than can take care of it, if not we'll just dispute the charges with AMEX (I love AMEX for just that reason).

On the bright side finals are officially over for both of us! We survived them well enough and we're both looking forward to no school for the next 4 months. Both Lisa and I were able to do about 2 yrs worth of work in a 12 month time frame. I should be at the U next spring, and Lisa should graduate that spring as well. It won't be much of a vacation this summer though, between the business and the 2nd job, both Lisa and I will be putting in about 65-70 hours a week each. Hopefully my 2nd job will be flexible with my schedule, I'd like to stay there for the insurance while I do my thing in the day.

Hope you enjoy the pics of our humble apartment. It's not much but it's home for now.

Until next time.

I love your cute litte apartment heck of alot better then what Paul and i ever had.. pretty sure it helps that Lisa is so good at decorating and creative stuff.I'm half tempted to hire her for our next house! Good luck with the couches, enjoy your break. 4 mo?! I'm so jealous!
