Aurora Borealis, shining down in Dallas, can you picture that?

WHAT HAPPENED IN MARCH?!?!?!

The SAGA OF THE FRIDGE AND FLOOR!

So... in January, the fridge that was older than we were finally died. So we went to the landlords and asked for a new one. Which they got...but they decided to go with a low quality $400 fridge. Which after two weeks, promptly died. So Michael went back to Future Shop, and wheeled and dealed, and got us....

Loooookkkkaaatttthhheeeeshhiiiinnnnyyy....

But, the floor was still a massive mess, and we were all incredibly sick of it, so we finally went to the landlords and said "its been a year, its time." So in come the tear out the floor guys!

Out it came, and in came the new. It's linoleum, its brown, and its not my favorite, but at least it isn't cutting up people's feet. Ignore the woman in white, observe the floor. 

What else happened?

Spring sprang, grass rose, and Loki insisted on her favorite toy, the doggie pool, being pulled out of storage and into the lawn. 

What else?

Work work work work work, and then...AWESOMENESS!

General recovery from Fools took a little while. In fact, I still have to put some costumes and props away, and clean up the costume room, and get my sewing room back in order, and I feel exhausted just thinking about it. On the flip side, when we started auditions and rehearsals for our upcoming production of Urinetown; the Musical, Cam stepped up and cleaned the whole downstairs until it shone, which was wonderful!

Soon after, Easter came along. Sarah went home to see her family, so I set up an Easter Egg hunt for the boys and made Easter dinner for some of our friends.

Sometimes its fun to be the only estrogen in the room. 

But, the estrogen is now outweighing the testosterone in this house! Morgan just moved in with us, and she is a lovely addition to the family. She's learning to bake and cook and sew with me, and we all have a blast together. 

Whats the rest of the good news?

I GOT A NEW JOB!!

I'm now working as a teaching assistant at an international school, and I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am. I'm doing work that I love, I'm getting paid way more for it, and I am feeling so much better because of all of it. I even have my own little teaching room, want to see?

 Things are looking up for everyone. And mid-may, I will have an exciting announcement for everyone. No, I am NOT pregnant, quit asking mom!!

Sad and happy news- our cruiser finally pooped out and died, so today we got a new car! Everyone, say hello to the Loki Limo!

Its a '98 Ford Escort, which means practically indestructible. Love having a car that runs again! Oh and Papa? I bartered her down to $600, Fryling style!

Michael decided (and rightly, he's been working really hard all spring) that he wanted some friends on his computer desk. So when Sarah's work at Petsmart had a sale, we got a fish tank! And let it be known, this is the kick-ass techno fish tank. The photos won't load though, so you'll have to wait for the next post to see the fabulous. What is fabulous though, is that my hammock is up.

New job, new car, new roomate, and this afternoon a new phone- so much new in March and April! Whats the next thing on the horizon? No idea, but I'm so excited for all the good things to come, and the awesome surprise I will post about as soon as I can! WOOHOO friends!Meanwhile, here is your moment of Zen.
