Another day of unpacking, and time out with a friend.

So I did get a run in this morning before the rain started, a bit over 4 miles, but quick, little tempo run to see if I could still make 7's here...more on another blog. Anyway, we did some more unpacking and organizing and decided that we brought WAY too much stuff! The only one that has not made that decision is Brenna who is very happy to have her room full of her stuffed animals and her stuff in general...I am glad for her because it seems to have made her more at ease...she seems to feel more like this is home now, because her room looks more like "her room". The next big project for us is to try and get the pictures hung on the wall, these are concrete walls so getting a way to hang stuff up is a bit of a struggle, at home we would go to Lowe's or Home Depot and get some of those 3M picture hangers, here I have no idea what to do or where to go...we have seen some of these weird plastic hooks with 4 small nails that you can tap in around, I am just not sure how much they can hold, our mission at some point today will be to find them and see! So the house is getting better organized, and we are finding that the place is "smelling"better, I think with as much open space as there was it was difficult to move the air around, and it would often smell quite stale, we now have more in the house, so the air moves better and the staleness seems to be leaving, even Brenna has commented that it smells better. Well after a day spent organizing and unpacking, we met one of Roxanne's friends and colleagues, at the G-Hotel, so that we could get some dinner, so we walked down to Kapitans, and had a great meal, and really good conversation. We headed home and decided to continue the conversation and show off our place, and there was some good football on TV. We had a nice night, and although it was well after midnight, we enjoyed ourselves very much...nice to have guests! Well another good day here in Penang!! Goodnight everyone!!
