New Year Renovations 2005
I will clean up that oil-spill we call the furnace room, and in an attempt to light a roomatic fire around the house (if the boss agrees), have a new fireplace and/or Franklin stove installed (but not in the furnace room).
In light of Thing 1’s top news story and Thing 2’s quote of the year, I think I’ll also put a lock on the liquor cabinet.

New Year Renovations 2003

I am also told that we may be sprucing up the appearance of the front of our house with a pair of new picture windows (which means the boys and I will have to spruce up our acts by wearing a little more cloths around the house – or else I will have to replace the Maple that we removed from the front of the house with a couple of large spruce trees).
