Sunday, 1-11-2004: I’ve been neglecting this journal lately. Happy 2004! Guess I need to stick all my 2003 entries into an archive page. So let’s see…for Christmas I got a Lowe’s giftcard, some clothes and a MIDI keyboard. I wasn’t expecting the keyboard so that was very cool. I’ve been wanting to buy one for years but I just never got around to it. My kids got pretty much everything they wanted. Nothing that interesting has been happening with me. A couple weekends ago I used all of the money from my Lowe’s giftcard to remodel the living room closet. Put big floor-to-ceiling shelves on one side, painted, etc. On Friday me and Tricia went to the Funny Bone and saw a show by Joe Marlotti. He was funny, but not VERY funny. We’re gonna go back next month when Bobcat Goldthwait is there. I’ve seen his show and it’s hilarious. Before seeing Joe, we went to eat at Ponderosa.

I spent all of today and yesterday working on my room - I removed my hidden bookshelf doors and put in a normal door. I did a lot of patching on the walls, installed a 220 volt heater in the wall (I usually turn off the house’s furnace and just heat my own room when the kids aren’t staying with me to save money), fixed parts of the floor that I never got around to finishing from when I moved walls around and put some new (but used) carpet down in bare spots. I’m annoyed at the beautiful weather today because I don’t get to test out my new heater. So yeah, that’s what I’ve been up to for the past few weeks. It’s exciting to be me.
