Weekend Update

Lots of updates for you…

1. We finally painted the pantry doors (after they were replaced like months ago) and added door knobs to them. Its amazing how much that was impacting the overall feel of the kitchen.
2. I mowed the lawn today for the second time this season.
3. Tonight, I ordered a broadband based security system for the house (http://ingridhome.com). Looks pretty interesting and is priced less then ADT or Brinks. It has a backup link using either GSM or a traditional phone line. I will post a review once it is in place.
4. My week in DC was productive. I now know more about wireless encryption then I ever thought I needed to know.
5. Cindy has been going non-stop with open houses, duty, and office meetings. This weekend alone she had 2 open houses and 1 duty session.
6. At the end of April we picked up our new car to replace Cindy’s old car. After test driving literally every car I could think of, we ended up with a 2008 Infiniti G35x Premium w/Nav. The color is called Slate Blue. I have to say it is one of the most comfortable cars I have ever driven.

On a sad note, a cousin of mine, Kevin stopped at his house to find his wife Trisha dead. She apparently hit her head. Trisha has been battling some demons, but it is sad for a life to end like this. A picture of Kevin and Trisha can be found here. Please keep Kevin in your thoughts.
