im still here just had to get the interwebz hooked up in my new house ;)

i know i know pics or STFU, ill get some tomorrow so heres the stats:
just under 2k square feet (not counting my unfinished basement, soon to be man cave)
3 bedroom
2.5 bath
roughed in bath in basement
loft (current man cave)
2 car attached garage (a little too small but the mark fits, you just cant walk around it...:()
fenced in yard
its in suburban hell, kinda, its a suburb of a small town :shifty:
we moved in on st patricks day, me being irish its a sign. just been busy cleaning, buying furniture, moving everything, but the 7 mile drive to the wifes job will be a hell of alot better than the 42 miles (one way) we did for the past 10 years
 
awesome
and down to seven miles you wont know what to do with the extra time
congrats on the house
 
well heres a few, some wont load for whatever reason, says invalid extension.... what ever. still somewhat empty but working on it. the loft/man cave/roost, is almost done just gotta wire the surround sound. yes i love my green shag and my chocolate corduroy couch love seat, even got gt5 up on the screen :D
been busy replacing ugly lights etc, and i gotta re route my router :shifty: stupid interwebz people with the "wireless install" yeah the kid screws a router/modem thing onto the cable in the basement and hes done, too bad the signal can barley reach the loft (over the garage) so i guess im gonna re-run the cable up to the loft and put their router on my puter desk (since my fingers are burning from using a windows machine, i want MY puter back)

i love the speaker box wrapped in carpet for the pussy to the play in, i mean, the cat, sorry language might not be appropriate. did you buy that house or are you renting it?

bought it. it sold new for 211k in 07, and we got it for under half that ;)

and i know everytime i look at the cat toy i think the same thing
 
just a small update:

finally got the interwebz upstairs (back on a non windows machine, ahhhhhhh much better)

still have to wire the surround sound. i got all the pieces just ran into a small problem in the attic. the peak over the garage is closed off so getting to the "rear" wall to run the speaker wire will be a challenge. if you look at the pic of the front of the house the main roof runs side to side and im sure it was easier to just lay down a sheet of plywood and close off that little section. i have some friends that do carpentry and they said it will be fine to cut a hole for me to get through to access that area, just scared about cutting a hole in my roof :shifty:

got my tools here (goodbye what little space we had in the garage)

now i just need my cousin to do some paintings for us (walls are still bare) but i did hang up something important ;)

nothing too new to update, lots of yard work. the owner before us was from Africa and i guess over there if it grows its a "flower" so she had a thistle garden.......:mad: and after she got the boot all of the neighbors said they were higher than the fence (4.5 foot) so ive sprayed everything i could on them and im just gonna use gas and a match next time cuz they dont die. basically thats it "rosa" has been busy with cleaning. i got my tools here but my garage is too small to do anything in but at least its a roof better than working on everything in the sun. i need to get under the front end of the mark and assess what needs fixing before boscobel.

oh and we got a dog, so ive been busy training him, since he is house broken and thats it, but its better than mopping up pee. hes around a year old, english bulldog, boxer mix, we couldn't decide between boxer or bulldog so we got both, hes brindle with a big white head. hes under weight but were working on fattening him up, got him from a shelter. i named him Mac, wanted to name him chuck but the neighbor behind me has a dog named charlie, so we kicked a few names around and agreed on mac
