It seems like every weekend now, or even every evening, we work on the house. We're still trying to get unpacked, and with Jeff's busy schedule, Lori's pregnancy and my job, we are always swamped for time. I've been replacing worn out plugs, lightswitches, installing smoke detectors and toilet paper holders, braces for book cases, hooking up computers, VCRs, DVRs, TVs, the list really endlessly goes on and on.

Things I still have to do are finish unpacking all the boxes in the "dining room," nee staging area, put up a fence to contain the dogs so we can get them back from the wonderful Uncle Al's house, set up the gorilla racks in the basement and unpack all the crap that goes on top of them, put away my tools in the built in cabinets in the basement, wire up some more phone jacks and set up my DSL "home run," finish building out my den, finish painting some rooms that only had the walls done but not the skanky trim, etc, etc.

But it's fun. Every day, I enjoy the beautiful doors, the wonderful look of the house and it's spaciousness. Since we moved here, the neighbors have been very helpful and if we want to get rid of some boxes or anything else, one email to our local email list gets it gone fast.

Jeff's in both indoor soccer and basketball at the YMCA right now. It's hilarious to see those little kids running after the ball. He loves it. He's also still swimming and really enjoying that as well.

So it turned out to be overzealous cops. But why did they arrest Cindy Sheehan and not the Republican woman?

What is this? A communist state?

It's against the law to speak your mind now? Arrested for wearing A SHIRT?

How low will this regime go?
