Inquiring Minds Want to Know

First, I'm glad to hear your trip went so well Dan. I look forward to hearing more about it!

I have a few questions about next year that while not pressing are something I think would be appropriate for this blog.

1. What kind of room arrangements are people thinking about? Having talked to Shane most frequently while I was off-campus, I've heard everything from having 2 people in each of the 3 rooms to having us all in one room. For the most part it doesn't matter that much to me. The only thing I would mention is that I have a reclining Lazy-boy loveseat currently at the Parletts'. It doesn't matter to me whether it stays or goes (I can think of a couple townhouses that would be glad to have it). Additionally, my grandmother offered to let us have her couch (it's like 25 years old and she's getting a new one). It's pretty long and comfortable despite being old. So I don't know how those play into the picture, but there it is. Thoughts?

2. I know it's only just July but I think about these things a lot. I've already started to acrue some things for the Parlett house kitchen. I have about 16 cups/glasses (plastic) that are all the same that I got from work. I also have flour and sugar canisters and a metal spetula. For whatever reason, when my family got new pots and pans, we kept all the old ones which are still in pretty good condition. It includes 2 frying pans, 2 sauce pans and a kettle. The coup de grâce is a Cuisinart food processer that I picked up at an estate sale for $15. I was way pumped about this purchase. That's about all that I know I'll definitely bring. Does anyone else have anything major (or minor) they plan on bringing?

Hope you're all doing well! I'll have a life update post soon but I wanted to do this one while I remembered. Goodnight!
