The people from California Closets came today to instal some of my closets, and I was immediately surprised to find out they would do all of the closets today! Yay! They look really good I think, so that is nice. The electrician also came today to add a few outlets in the entertainment center, and because there were people working through much of the middle of the day I didn't get as much unpacking done as I would have liked. Unpacking is really overwhelming, though I'm sure I have mentioned that already! I did have the chance to get a lot of my kitchen stuff unpacked so I was able to cook. Most of it is still really clean since I packed in clean two years ago, so I only threw some of the stuff in the dishwasher (all the cutlery, some cups, etc.). I had to take a trip to Kroger to get some laundry detergent (just in time for my laundry day to be over, oh well) and dishwasher soap and guess what? The damn spider was STILL there. I tried to be brave and get it off, but it hid inside my mirror and I couldn't get to it. I did a little more work at home and had dinner while watching Jeopardy and then went to meet up with a friend. This time when I got to my car I finally got the spider off, but when I got back it had made a huge web above my parking space which led me to discover a plethora of its buddies also living in my covered parking. Having a covered parking spot sounded a lot better before I considered that it is a perfect spider habitat, eww. Anways, it's bedtime (way past it actually) so I'm out!
Oh wait, before I go today I obviously have to comment on today's Olympic action! I watched the women's gymnastics, men's water polo, and a lot of swimming. Everything was great and the USA did really well! So excited for the women's gymnastics team for winning the gold for the first time since 1996 and the Magnificent Seven. Way to go Fab Five! Most exciting I think though was Michael Phelps breaking the record for most medals in an Olympic career with 19 medals (15 gold, 2 silver, 2 bronze). That is crazy to even try to imagine being that excellent at your sport that you can accomplish so much. It also makes me think about just how many more opportunities swimmers have to win Olympic medals when you compare it to any other sport. I think it could be interesting to have a swimming team medal like in collegiate swimming where there is a point total. I will stop babbling now and go to sleep. Lots to do tomorrow!
