It must have been 6 months ago when I moved into my “new” house. Of course there are tons of loose ends to tie up….still. I dedicated some time Sunday and Monday to take care of a couple of them.

All of our movies were still in boxes on Sunday morning. I got some drywall screws and some stock shelving and went to work. I bought some sawhorses, and finally had a chance to use the circular saw I got from Kelly’s parents for Christmas. It has a laser guide, which I’m not sure how I lived without. The shelves turned out well and we alphabetized our movies, from “Air Force One” to “Who’s Harry Crumb“. We’ll see how long that lasts.

Monday night was the entertainment center night. Behind it was a hideous mess of cables. With the computer, cable box, PS2, TV, receiver, etc., there was at least 2 or 3 cords. I finally fed them all through the proper channels in the TV stand and velcro’ed up all the extra. I also added some new speaker stands I bought and got my Harmony remote working properly (with the help of Logitech level 2 tech support). Tim recommended this remote to me and it works great. It uses macros so that all of your equipment will power up and go to the proper settings with the touch of one button. I haven’t had to use another remote since.

And as you can see, Lucy kept he eye on the neighborhood punks outside to make sure they weren’t up to any hijinks. Those crazy kids with their rap music and their crystal meth.
