Ikea according to Adam


"If you do a shitty job you'll be sad. If you do a good job, you'll be stoked"

Okay, granted it was probably a lot funnier when he said it. But I just had to share. Good ol' Ikea.

Ding dong, you're a jerk.

This post is directed to the ass who rang my doorbell at 2am last night.

Grow up. Seriously. Who do you think you are? You think it's funny running around waking people up? What, were you just testing to see if we were home? Well now you've pissed off my brother who's prepared to come at you with a baseball bat. And I'll have you know that I practiced my swing techniques in the kitchen this morning. I'm ready for you. So go ahead and come back. I'm sleep deprived and cranky now jerkwad.

Dogs are simple

Here's Steve chasing a flashlight.... well the light itself anyhow. What a dork. Doesn't he know he can't get it? We did this to him for like 15 minutes.....


Sorry, I don't know how to switch it vertical, hope you don't get a neck cramp

I live with monkeys.

Seriously, two of them. It's amazing to me how obnoxious boys can be. Tonight they were down in the basement watching me fold laundry (how generous of them to watch and not bother to help, but anyhow) and they come across a can of compressed air. You know, the kind you use to clean out computers and stuff. Well they decide to rig it up with a big straw and blow chunks of paper all over my kitchen. They're giggling like children. They don't even listen when you talk to them. I'm in over my head. They've formed an alliance and I'll never be the same.

Sign me up Discover

If it doesn't fit, cut it.

I'm on the laptop, so I only have this one photo, but thought I'd share it anyhow. Remember when I said Adam's bed didn't fit downstairs? Well, here's the solution. Ryan chopped it in half. I was really skeptical at first, and was like, "yeah right, that idea is dumb." But it worked. They took all the fabric off of it, chopped it, brought it downstairs, braced it with some scraps of wood and covered it again. Sure one day we'll have to undo that to get it up the stairs, but we'll worry about that later. I'm tired, but the boys (Ryan, Adam, Keith) are all playing guitar hero... it's been like 2 hours now, I was done an hour and a half ago so I'm hiding out in the bedroom. Anyhow, I'm going to attempt to sleep.

Adam's Here

Time goes by quickly! It seems like yesterday that I was in Powell River, saying Adam would be here in a month and a half. But today he arrived. He got here around noon. I was at work, but Ryan was here to help him unpack. I left work around 2:30 to come help.
FINALLY I got around to washing the walls in his room, taping and painting. Better late than never right? Ryan cut in and I rolled the first coat of primer. It definitely needs two to cover those horrible blue walls. It's going to end up a light chocolate brown. Hopefully we'll have it done tomorrow night, then I can post a photo.
I also need to post a shot of Adam's gargantuan tv. It's so huge and awkward they couldn't carry it into the house all in one shot. So boys being boys, took my sled, and drug it across the lawn! I wish I took a photo it was hilarious.
Steve's doing good. He's scared to go down the stairs; they're kind of steep. He'll have to get used to it though. Right now Adam is carrying him down. What a baby.
It feels like I'm never ending moving in. This has been going on for 2 months now. More if you count my packing up the apartment. It's exciting for it to finally be rounding up here (or so I hope).
Going to go to bed, more later.
