The title basically describes our lives right now.  My job has been hectic with new upgrades and everything else and Katie’s new job has been keeping her occupied.  When we finally have some free time, we have been out with friends or working on some sort of project around the house.  Like I said, we are busy.  It would be nice to have some time to relax and not worry about anything for a while.

Katie finally forced me to get a reusable bag to take my lunch to work in (she got one too).  I would normally take plastic bags that came from grocery shopping, but since Katie has become “environmentally conscious” and is using the reusable bags from Kroger my supply has stopped.  I think it’s all a rouse to get me pulled into her “save the environment” game.*  The lunch bag is awesome though, perfect for the geek in me.  If you don’t understand the phrase, go browse some LOLCats.

In other fun news, we are now adding our own touches to the house.  We have installed under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen so Katie can see better when she is cooking and we replaced the faucet on the kitchen sick to match the other fixtures.  I am looking into home automation using a Z-Wave system.  It looks to be a fun project.  There are also plans to do some landscaping this year as well as wire the entire house for Ethernet (this may be cancelled if Wireless N routers keep dropping in price).

There is one more project that Katie and I are working on that can’t be revealed at this time.  It is super secret.

Katie has been cooking some amazing meals recently and I do believe I should poke her to share some of our favorites on the site.  Especially the baked chimichanga’s.  I think I have fallen in love with those.  Speaking of food, I think it’s time to go eat dinner. . .a new recipe from Katie this evening.

*Katie really isn’t an environmental freak.  In fact, she is the complete opposite.
