Photo 5: January 7, 2009

Hey there! Today's photo is going up a little late, but I've been busy cleaning and getting ready for some friends to visit. Our friends Josh and Tina are coming down from Tully, NY (near Syracuse) to visit all their old NC friends. I've been washing sheets and vacuuming and just generally getting the apartment in shape.

This shot is of our bedroom right now; it looks great, right? We're actually getting a new bed tomorrow, and I went ahead and got the room ready to set it up. I'm borrowing my sweet friend Logan's truck and another friend, Tam, is riding with me to VA to pick it up. Kevin and I bought the bed while we were visiting family last week, but we didn't have a way to get it to NC. Kevin's out of town for the next couple of nights, so I want to have it all set up for him when he gets back!

You can see our mattresses leaned against the wall, and the vacuum in the middle of the floor. This shot makes our bedroom look super narrow; there's actually a little more room to the right of the photo, but it's currently covered in all the stuff that came out from under our old set-up (humidifier, clothing storage thingies, random empty shoeboxes)! Hopefully tomorrow's shot will be of our new bed all set up, cozy and comfy!

Okay, I'm off to finish sniffling and try to fall asleep on the couch. Somehow I've managed to catch the last hour or so of The Notebook on TV, and I can't manage to quit crying long enough to even finish this post. The part at the end where they're dancing and she remembers him...but then she forgets him again in the middle of dancing. Sheesh! That'll rip your heart right out. Sniff...sniff...
