Let it Begin!

I spent yesterday morning patching and moving the downstairs around to get ready for The-Great-Paint. I've yet to pick the official color, but, i did buy a great new piece of furniture for the downstairs! Found a great little antique store in Indian Trail (Southern Market Place) and got a steal for this china cabinet.

All in price - $160
I've yet to decide if I'm going to repaint it - I'll have to see what it looks like [in a place TBD at the condo] with the new wall color.

Woke up this morning still a little full from the great steak dinner Eric cooked last night and took Tugs out -- was a wonderful 69 degrees with 70% humidity. Left monster-puppy inside and went straight for a nice 4 mile run. I took some pictures along the way since I had my iPhone to finish out the newest Freakonomics podcast.

Here is a different side of Charlotte:

Cows!


Final farm where Sailor met her first cow, approaching Peach Orchard
I got home, pounded some Gatorade, and Eric and I took Sailor for the mile and a half loop on the trail. After my coffee, I'm back home making a list for the store. Looking forward to a short week at work and great progress next weekend.

...Apparently, all I need to do is buy Eric lunch at Sub Station II for helping me paint :)...
