Wednesday - Almost a Week?

I didn't mean for it to take me so long between updates!!

It's been crazy here with trying to get the attic done.

Recap of that:

Junk is gone. I cannot tell you how freeing that is! The only things left stored up there relating to That Man and and I are some National Geographic magazines the kids wanted to keep, a box of books - also for the kids, some wood, and some insulation. So technically, That Man and I have nothing stored up there (except that old timey bag cell phone we'll sell eventually). This is a very awesome thing. (Remember what we went through clearing out our parents house? Yeah... We checked box number one...next is the basement)

We have the poly for the floor, the paint for the other floor, the half-wall has awesome wood on it, and the walls are 1/4 done. The sanding on the big half is done. This sounds like nothing, but, trust me, it's not. It already looks amazing up there. Tomorrow night, we spot sand the wood filler and put the first coat of poly down. Then we can paint (better to paint walls with a super old floor with a coat of poly down for easy clean up). We only have to paint about a foot on one whole wall and two partial walls, and then about four feet of wall on one wall. The burlap covering is working out awesome, and we're waiting for more to come so we can finish.

It is coming along quite nicely. The Kid should be in her new room by next weekend. We still need to do the other side of the room, but that will also start to happen next weekend and should go quickly since it's a super small area. Well, not super small, just a lot smaller than the big side. LOL

Other than that.

That Mom is doing okay in rehab. She does have a UTI, which explains a lot. Her roommate is a trip.

School starts in 12 days. K4 is not really thrilled about that. There are still jeans, undies, and school supplies to be purchased.

Camp is coming in about two weeks. So very looking forward to that. The Aunt and Uncle are coming to be with us for the weekend. Yay!

I need to write (writing has suffered a lot with this attic thing). I should be able to get at least a few words in before time to crash.

Behave!
