Jesse and I excitedly went lawn mower shopping this weekend. Last weekend the closest neighborhood store was closed, and this Friday it was closed again...so we sucked it up and ventured to Home Depot. We both like to buy local things and also both think of Keene as far far away...but they had John Deers!
We loved them, but thought we'd try the other store just to see. They have Husqvanas (sp?) which are apparently also a good brand and the same price. We felt a little unsure of which to get, and realized we both wanted the John Deer just because we knew it and liked it... I mowed my parents' yard on a John Deer for many years and we felt torn. But then the nice man at the local small store said that they'd service any mower we got, even a John Deer from Home Depot...So I think we'll be getting one this week :) We just need to see if my dad can come with us and load it in his truck...
In other news, Jesse bought a bunch of blue paint for our downstairs hallway, and was disappointed when none of them turned out to be the color on the swatch. After many trips to the paint store he found a blue he liked and our hallway is no long covered in partridges & stripes. Hooray! Pictures to come.
We've also been attempting door painting....unsuccessfully in these two cases:
And successfully! Our new, not-as-mellow-as-we-thought yellow. But we love it.
