Jeremy and I went to see "Sarah Plain and Tall: The Musical" at the Dallas Art Theater on Sunday evening. Every opening weekend of a show they have a deal where you "Pay What you Can" on Sunday night. (I believe that's the correct info.) Anyways, somehow I found out about it months ago and e-mailed the website to Jeremy. Then he put it on his cell phone calendar :). The week before the show, as we were planning out our week and meals etc., he mentioned it and asked if I still wanted to go. Having totally forgotten about it, I was way surprised!

So, at the end of a very long week which included lots of piano-playing (that I enjoy, but keeps me busy) we got to go and relax and watch a very fun show. It was so creatively portrayed and the songs were fun! We laughed lots (and I cried some too). We both keep trying to sing the songs, don't get very far, and then say that we want to go see it again. But there's no more "Pay What You Can" nights so we probably won't. And this was a premier of the revised and expanded musical that was originally done in 2002. So it's not like you can even find all the music somewhere or go rent the movie. You can however listen to a few snippets here. The cast we saw included some of the same characters as are recorded on that website (Anna, Jacob, and Sarah).

I'm thinking it may be my new favorite musical - it's family-friendly and fun yet includes real heartache. Love it!

Today, our bathroom is supposed to be finished!!!!  Yeah!!  Last night marked 7 weeks I believe since they started taking it apart and fixing it stage by stage.  There was a leak in the sewer pipe in the wall which had slowly seeped under our linoleum.  They took everything except the shower out and repaired quite a bit of the sheetrock.  For a few days there we had no good mirror by a light.  I kept being late to work those days.

Then, everything was fixed, but the new cabinets which had been ordered, had not shown up yet.  The maintenance guy came by 1 week after we had expected them and told me a long story about them being stolen by the delivery company...   I'm definitely a spoiled American!  But I like having cupboards and drawers so that our bathroom items are not just spread out all over the countertop.  We also didn't have a TP holder.  That got old as well!

Finally, Tuesday, they came and put in our new cupboards!!!  They've done touch-up painting and such, and today they are putting the linoleum back in!!!  No more make-shift area rugs and no more stuff strewn out on the counter top!  And it gets even better!  Our new vanity under the sink has 6 drawers and 1 larger cabinet-like area, instead of the 2 drawers and 3 larger cabinet-like areas!!!  So much easier to store stuff in there!

Last night Jeremy organized our bathroom while I almost finished our curtains.  I'll try to put pix on here this weekend of the curtains and the bathroom.  Yeah!

Tonight we're having a Narnia Party at our apt.  I've invited over friends from work, we're going to have fondue and play some Narnia trivia-type games and then go to an 8 pm showing of Prince Caspian.  Very exciting!
