Progress

Just a quick picture update of the progress with my new building. The first picture is from 11/26 and they go on from there stepping up every few days. The last couple of photos are from today. The last one is a pic of the demolition of some of the surrounding properties.

Later,
Jason

Why bother

Had a nice time on New Year's Eve. Blueberry Hill was interesting to say the least. It turned out to be more of a club scene than expected and well, we're just not into that sort of thing. It was nice because it was something different to do. I would definitely like to go back and eat at the restaurant sometime. Jason's back is hurting him due to sitting on a stool all night. I had to stand up for awhile myself. There were people of all ages hanging out but after midnight Jason and I decided that it was time to call a cab and head back. Of course there were NO cabs to wave down so calling a cab seemed to be the only option.
The next day we decided to go to the Galleria so that I could purchase some LUSH products. I went there for the first time last month and the products seem to work for most. We then left and stopped at Whole Foods and man I wish we had one of those closer! I bought some cheese and we took some olives home from the olive bar. Schnucks is similar but not as awesome.
Other than that, the New Year was kind of quiet. Nothing too exciting. I don't bother making resolutions because I'm pretty much over it within two weeks.
The new building is coming up nicely. We're getting tired of people asking why it's square and if we're going to call it the "Liquor Box" then laughing at what they think to be an original comment.
It's exciting. We also broke a record on New Years Eve due to most people staying home. Also exciting. Other than that. It's a new year. woohoo
