WHO'S THE MAN?!?!

...KIM'S THE MAN!!!

I just installed AND activated Sirius radio in our house. If anyone knows how I am with electronics and wires you know that it is no easy feat! I understand electronics, but when you add in A TON of wiring...I get very confused. Add in the fact that the Sirius website was having technical difficulties with activating online and you have a big mess! Oh yes, the rep that I spoke with also had a THICK hispanic accent. LOTS OF FUN!!! "Escuse me, can you repeat that?" Again and again and again...

Oh, and temporary antenna has a somewhat choppy signal. boo!

HOORAY FOR MARGARITAVILLE!!!! AND NEW COUNTRY!!! AND COFFEE HOUSE!!!



Yes, the plastic is still on. I'm a little OCD. Give me a brake - it's BRAND NEW!!!


The 'organized mess' of wires.


The temporary antenna hangin' out in the window.


A very proud installer/activator.


It's not as easy as it seems. There are a ton of codes and passwords along with it and fiddling with the stupid antenna to aquire a signal...


BUT, I DID IT! ALL. BY. MYSELF. :)

We decided to make this our anniversay gift. A very expensive, but very worth it gift!!!


Now, it's Jon's turn to do the car installations!!! Stay tuned...

celebrating

This weekend, I was able to join 18 other women to celebrate my Aunt's 50th Birthday Bash up in South Deerfield, Massachusetts. It was a wonderful time of love, laughter, and of course, tears. We were able to visit an 8,000 square foot butterfly conservatory that was absolutely AMAZING! It felt as if you were in a rain forest with bright, beautiful butterflies fluttering all around. We also visited the Yankee Candle FLAGSHIP STORE!!! I was in heaven and did quite the damage but we're stocked with candles for the next year!

OUR TOWN WAS ON THE NEWS!!!

287 North was closed at the exit before ours from 5AM this morning and they say it will be until about 10PM tonight because of an overturned HAZMAT truck. I saw the truck and the miles upon miles of idling vehicles with my own eyes at 7:30 this morning. It was a commuters nightmare...the evening rush hour traffic had a 10-mile backup on 287 with every back road tied up. Ouch.
