Love you sweet girls.

Rain Drops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens...
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

Huzzah!!!
I have the Internet back!!!! Now it is time to catch up on what you guys have been doing in the past week*. I have been moving into my new house, paying my TV tax, getting my Sky (satellite) installed, waiting on my internet, trying to figure out the cheapest way to call the USA, and Christmas and house set up shopping like it is nobody's business. Oh and did I mention that there are only 10 more days til Christmas? Where did the time go? Didn't Thanksgiving just happen like a week ago?
I guess I should show you guys around the new bungalow. It is a vast improvement on the TLF that we were staying in. I still have hotel like furniture that we are borrowing from the Air Force until our furniture arrives, but it it at least is starting to feel like a real house (even though it is filthy right now because of moving in and such). The new place is a 4 bedroom bungalow (but we will pretend that it is only 3 because bedroom #4 is now going to be the office) and it has a detached finished garage that was used as a rec room by the owner (our landlords), we are going to use that as the "man room". In otherwords when "The Man" decides that it is time to play his guitar at rediculous decible levels, he can go to the "man room" to do so. Right now it is empty and I don't have a picture but once it has something in it and is fully manly I will show you guys!
The kitchen. (Oh HAI! Elizabeast!)
The Living Room (lounge). Notice the lovely Motel 6 quality furniture. Don't notice the pile of laundry, sippy cup, or 2 large boxes of moving trash that are in the background.
The poweder room. Nothing too spectacular here other than the fact that this toilet has an American flusher thingy!
Part of my boudouir. See that suck-tas-tic blue stripy comforter...yeah it has been replaced with a 4 inch thick douvet. Did I tell you guys that it gets cold here at night?
This is the shower in the girls bathroom and frankly the only shower in the house that has any water pressure. I hate showers with no water pressure. I think that is actually one of my biggest pet peeves. When I take a shower, I want the water to feel like it is going to knock me into the back of the shower. I have only actually found one shower that is absolutely perfect and it is the shower on the 2nd level of my mom's house. It feels like a pressure washer and it is fabulous! The other shower in the house is in the "en suite" bathroom (master bathroom) and it has just enough water coming out of the shower head to piss you off.
The now empty office. Notice the hideous carpet. This is why it is the office and not KiKi's bedroom.
OK this is my favorite part of the house. My fireplace. Of course I think it needs to be swept by a chimey sweep before I even chance trying to light a fire in it. I could just see it now, me trying to light a nice ambient fire only to be choked out by plumes of smoke filling the room because the chimney flue isn't open or the chimney is clogged with debris. Face it guys, that would be my luck. Also when I think of having a chimney sweep in my house I think about the movie Mary Poppins...is that weird??
*and make dinner, so this might take a while...

Contemporary bedroom furniture 2008 2009
Contemporary Bedroom Furniture is the perfect fit for modern homes, as it has been designed for functionality as well as comfort. The Bedroom Furniture includes stylish dressers as well as mirrors, nightstands and bedroom benches. What sets contemporary furniture apart from traditional furniture is that the latter consumed a lot of space and was quite elaborate in design, whereas contemporary furniture makes the best possible usage of space.
The material that is usually used in Contemporary Bedroom Furniture is wood or metal, especially aluminum. You can choose from a range of styles and colors that are available on the market. The products have been designed to make an optimum usage of the space. Thus, you can come across a set of drawers fitted with a seat on top, that serves as a bench and as a storage space. Then there are armoires that cannot only take good care of your clothing and accessories, but also doubles as storage space for your TV. You have scores of colors to choose from, be it ebony, lighter shades of brown or an elegant white.
There are a number of styles of beds, so you can choose from sleigh beds to metal beds to platform beds to king-sized beds. The platform beds are for those who like their furniture to be without any frills and fancies. These beds are quite easy to assemble and are liked by people due to their understated elegance. The sleigh beds spell sophistication and class. The bedroom is also the place where one can dress at ease; thus, having a mirror and a dresser is an absolute must for your room. Accentuate the sense of space in your room by getting a wall-mounted mirror designed in the contemporary style.
