Life as I Knit it

As I keep working on the design of the blog it makes me sad that it only has one post. Today I worked on some self portraits and some extra cute photos of Troeg! We have no idea what type of dog Troeg is, but he looks like a shrunken down black lab with a puppy like face....

I know he's super cute, and the best part is he LOVES to cuddle! (like it's one of his "commands")

I am constantly taking pictures, and to be honest I don't think he likes the camera very much! He is a very spoiled puppy, most days the apartment is a mess with dog toys everywhere, as well as his tunnel! Yup, my dog has a tunnel. When we first got him he would tunnel under the sheets down to the bottom of the bed, and since the arrival of the tunnel there has been no more untucking of the sheets.

He will go through the tunnel just to walk down hallway!

So more on our move... it's in 38 days and I could not be any more excited! We knew that we would only be in the apartment for a year so none of our walls are painted. I did put up what little art we have and some family photos so that the walls are not completely bare. The new house will be an adventure because while it is move in ready, there are plenty of small upgrades that I plan on doing to make it better; such as painting a bunch of rooms, changing the very old thermostat and re-tilling the kitchen back splash which currently looks like this...

(the whole mexican hand painted tile does not go with the rest of the house)

None of these are huge tasks but will make all the difference when we get there, and are so easy to do yourself (hint: there will be posts about these upgrades). Right now the living room is light pink, and that just will not work for me! 

Now I will go back to work and maybe make some dinner, although I'm thinking tonight will be a leftover night to get a bunch of stuff out of the refrigerator? We will see...
