James uses the phrase, “this day” instead of “today.” He also knows what Lowe’s is and always asks us when he sees either a Lowe’s store or a Lowe’s rental truck, “Are we going to Lowe’s this day?”
Today, we went. He was happy to ride in their blue race car carts and help us pick out a ceiling fan and hooks and lightbulbs and various other things you can get at Lowe’s. But he’s taking a nap now, so we’re busy putting up new blinds in the front room, building that [beautiful] 60″ ceiling fan and all the other various little projects we now have the supplies to complete. David is loving getting use out of his new drill and I’m loving making this place really ours. Part of me is contemplating taking all of the fans and lights with us when we sell it but I know most of those are supposed to convey with the house…
I know, I know, we just bought the place. I’m not supposed to already be thinking of when we move out. I just can’t help but think eventually we will relocate, maybe someplace bigger, maybe to a new city, maybe not for 20 years, but someday we might and we’ve spent so much time and so much energy into replacing all the stuff. We could very easily keep the little brass light fixtures and put them up again when we move out. Really. We could. They work perfectly well.
