How Many Keys?

So in case you didn't notice, I now have an awesome background to match my even more awesome header.

Becca over at Lovely Yellow Ribbons was a dear and gave me a background to match. Have I mentioned how talented she is lately?

One other blogger I'd like to mention is one of my best friends, Kebi. She's been commenting for awhile on blogs, but has now started blogging herself. You should check her out over at Hanging By a Thread and welcome her.

This morning I went to inspect our apartment and pick up our keys. Only a few things need to be done to the apartment. Mainly it needs to be swept and our landlord needs to install another outlet for our dryer. Other than that we are golden. I'm loving our balconies the most. I love that we have a front one and back one. Of course the back balcony, off our two bedrooms is my fave. It has a view of a garden and a few fields, it was foggy today so I couldn't check for a view of the mountains, but I'm hoping that is included.

You should see the amount of keys that I have for our apartment. I'm not kidding when I tell you we have about 20. They are labeled A-M and then we have two other for the door to our apartment, a set for our storage room aka cellar, a set for the door to our garage in the back, a set for the garage in the front and an automatic key for the door in and out of the whole garage. I have NO idea how I'm going to remember which key is for what. I'm sure with time and many trying of keys I'll figure it out.

Today from 2 to 4 I'm doing the driver's course. I mentioned I was supposed to go a few weeks ago, when Sean went, but he was in such a large in-processing class that there was no room for spouses to attend. So...that's what I'm doing today.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions about the Rosetta Stone. I will be using that...eventually. I need to get my laptop hooked up to a wireless network first. That's actually a question that I'm going to save for another blog. I'm kind of clueless when it comes to laptops, so I'll be asking you ladies a few questions about it. Probably tomorrow.

Ciao!

My Wish List

Now that I'm working I've been thinking about some things that I want to buy. After I put a dent in my bills of course, have to be a responsible adult before I indulge myself. I've seperated the items into things we need and things I want.

Things We Need

A new Queen sized mattress. We are currently sleeping on a very uncomfortable full sized bed. This is probably what I'm going to get first. I need a comfy, large bed!

Floor lamps- at least two. Our living room gets kind of dark.


Things I Want

A Chi straightner. This humidity in Louisiana does nothing for my hair. I need agood straightner to combat this.

The new Canon Rebel XTI. One of my goals/dreams is to be a professional photographer. I'm going to buy this camera for my 25th birthday present to myself.



A new laptop. I've never had a laptop, but I want one. This isn't a necessity since Sean and I are going to get a new desktop for ourselves, but I would SO love to have my own laptop. *Sigh*

Of course the obvious clothes, shoes and various seasons of my favorite T.V. shows are also on the list, but those aren't really noteworthy.

Sean still is in the field, so looks like Boomer and I will be hanging out tonight. I'm contemplating going to the gym to run, but I'm also hungry and would like to eat. I don't like to eat before going running though as it makes my stomach unsettled. What to do?

One thing I am going to do tomorrow is take my camera to downtown Leesville and take pictures. I work on Main Street and while walking to the post office today I noticed so many things I want to take pictures of. If any of them are good I'll try to post them tomorrow.

Hope everyone has a great start to their weekend!
