An ode to socks

Posted by Candy February 13th, 2010

There is nothing quite like the feeling you get when you can successfully match up all of the warm socks that just came out of the dryer.
socks
you’re soft, warm and cozy
you keep my toesies toasty
sometimes you’re striped
sometimes you’re dotty
most of the time you’re fuzzy

My dog. The gigantic one. Will not stop whining at the back door. And I am thisclose to punching him in the throat. But that is neither here nor there…

The Oven mentioned previously is ours! We also got a stainless steel hood to match. I hope it fits. The oven (or range as they call it) is being delivered Friday. I’m hoping to be using it this weekend! We’ll see.
I also found the matching stainless steel refrigerator that I want. Yeah, it’s $2,000 but [...]
