our rental-inside part II...

"When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you." Is 42.2

So you got a taste of the outside! I must say that we have added and planted a ton more flowers, got a campfire pit, a few chairs and more flowers! It has been fun!

Now for the inside! I took these photos a few weeks ago so some stuff has been added, taken away, rearranged and so on. I have a few more pictures to hang, a Ranger wall to put together and a few more touches!

Here goes...

I just realized that I don't have any of the kitchen! Nothing to special there as far as the decor and ancient jenair stove (at least as old as the house) go! There is some tile on the floor with some grand, mustard yellow counter tops...how do you decorate with that color on your counters?!? The best things in my kitchen is my kitchen aid, coffee maker and espresso machine...all I cannot live without!

It has been a long but good week...and there is still one more day! I have been recovering from my tooth stuff which has not been to bad. I am trying to get some good sleep at night but like always Ben continues to wake me up at 0 dark thirty...aka 0530 then 0630 then 0700...yes, in that order and all in the same morning! That is one part of his brain that has not changed! I started working out again. Wed I did 20 interval on the treadmill (lil over 2 miles) and then 20 min (12 miles) on the spin bike. Today I started on the spin bike thinking I would run after but much to my enjoyment they were going to have a 45 min spin class while I was spinning. I ended up going for 60 min and 30 miles...we shall see if I will be moving in the morning to get Ben up or if I will just call my brother down the street to help us both get out of bed! Who knows, maybe I will be fine...ha...gotta start somewhere right?!

We were able to go to two of my neices soccer game last night! Ben was really paying attention, keeping track of where the girls were on the field and then cheering and saying whoohoo when they got a goal!
