There are some objects that I never have given much thought until I started playing The Sims. Now I look at artificial silk trees with more of an eye as to where that would fit in my house instead of who would put a fake tree in their home. I’ve also have changed my mind about other items like paintings. I never thought that I would like a painting on the wall but now I might just be in the market.

It’s amazing how seeing some objects in The Sims has changed my view on them. I guess it is a familiarity with them since I play the game. It still is odd to try and keep up with my Sims instead of my real life neighbors.

As always, there are a few home improvement projects we hope to tackle this weekend. On top of the list is new shower faucets. We have grown accustomed to our handheld shower, so we will be looking for a new one since our current one is nearly had it.

Faucet.com has a selection of shower faucets plus some basic information on them. For our home, we might have to go with a custom shower faucet with water jets in a circle. It’s like a massage and shower all in one. That’s one reason we love the handheld shower so much is because of the different water settings.

I’m sure we can find what we need at Faucet.com with their wide selection of name brands. Plus shipping isn’t all that bad. It might be easier to order online instead of fighting the Saturday rush at the home improvement store. Hopefully we can get something picked out and order by the weekend. It’s not as fun to take a shower with the plain shower head installed.

After unpacking a lot of boxes, I finally found the PS2 and video games. Great! Now I can play. I only have a slight problem. The cords are not with the console. ugh. Where or where did I pack them? I just hope it’s not another ten boxes before I find them.

I’m hoping that I will find them today since I’m anxious to play Guitar Hero again as well as check out my new DDR video game I found for $1. I have a few ideas. Hopefully one is where the cords will be located.
