More on the Wii, Thinking, and New Decorations

I'm not sure why this is turning into a chronicling of Brian's relationship with his Wii, but it seems to be the most interesting thing in the house these days, besides having to read all of the time and do things like build closets. Now, his penchant is for 007! The movie is coming out next week, and this week they came out with a Wii game for it. We found it at Costco today! So, he's shooting people and jumping from rooftop to rooftop, and he's been doing this for about four hours now. Kobe feels deprived, so I keep having to console him - he doesn't understand why Brian sits and moves his arms in front of the tv so much. It's hard to explain to a dog.

As for me, I found supercute pictures for our living room. Oh, I bet I can find them online and paste them here! (Elapse of five minutes.... searching....) Ok. Found two of them, but we also got some little paintings of these cute owls, too. Brian really likes them because of the bright colors and the little birds. It's really fun decorating a house, but it's also very time-consuming and if you buy things and don't wait for sales, it can get expensive (I guess it could get expensive even with sales...). But, it's always a little scary spending money on trivial things these days with the economy the way it is. Who knows how stable our jobs are really. But, we need to remember that it is God who provides, not us, not the government, not our jobs. So, remembering that, we feel less anxious about those kind of things. And, it's helpful to remember that its God who takes away, too. It's too easy to get attached to things! But, with that said, the paintings ARE cute, aren't they? ;-)
