vent covers
so wil and i have recently come to the realization that we need to buy those rectangle magentic vent covers to place on one or two of our downstairs ceiling vents to direct more of the air upwards. when we sit downstairs on the couch i actually need a blanket sometimes, but then when we walk upstairs it’s so hot….we haven’t used the covers on our bed in i don’t know how long.
now that gracie has gotten pretty comfortable in the house, she’s started to find her favorite “spots”…under the side chair, on the linoleum in the entry, under the bed, etc. while working in the office, she has found that her spot is under the computer desk, sprawled directly on top of the entire vent. she has done supremely well at blocking the source of air into the office without knowing it.
so i decided, to make this a win-win situation, since we need a vent cover, and since she loves covering vents, i need to figure out how to attach her to the ceiling vent in the downstairs, and voila, problem solved!
ok, so i just wrote this entire post and it ended up being a much dumber joke than i thought when it was in my head, but after all that typing, i can’t get myself to just delete it all.
here’s a quick update to make this post actually have a purpose: i am good, wil is good and gracie is good.

why don’t you try closing some downstairs vents at night….
not that it matters really, but i think that was a PERFECT blog. I love reading about your daily life and thoughts. And I laughed…..out loud even!! iloveyou!
i’m with dena, i love reading about the mundane life of the two of you very much. that’s what all of our lives really are, the fun part is sharing it! i’ve tried to find other uses for sophey, but other than a snuggle bug…. she is a bit useless. cute and loveable but not much help around here. neither are the teens though and atleast she snuggles with me!
our downstairs vent covers don’t have closers on them, so we can’t actually close them. a friend of mine at work told me about these magnetic covers… seems like a good solution so we’re gonna give it a try. =D
