Last one to post........... Part 21

But the end result will be worth it

I forgot we have to get the eaves and gutters either done by BIL friend-or do them ourself(there all peeling and leaking) plus we have to paint the front window casing and replace the shutters on the front of the house-not much just a little more

BIL said his friend who does this for a living offered to do them for a nice price-but we have yet to meet this person-so who knows if it will happen!!!!

 

[ckckc2000]

Oh and did I mention what BIL did the other day?????

well-this is such him!!!!No brains at all!!! Ok he has his own BR that we only use in emergencies and I usually dry my hair in that one since it's far away from the living room

so I go in there and what do I find????? But the sink is running water at a steady slow stream and it's the HOT water to boot!!!!

This water had been on since around 8-9am and it was now 4pm!!!! and we have a holding tank so everything that drains into it from the house has to be pumped out for 110.00 bucks!!! we usually have to do this every1-2months but now it may be a lot sooner!!!! What a Dumb#$$!!!!!!(we just had the darn thing pumped too!)plus lets not mention the cost of running Hot water ALL DAY!!!!!

I took DS in and the doctor thinks it is a viral infection...so it may be a couple more days of fever, but he basically told me to keep doing what we have been doing. They did swab his throat to make sure it wasn't strep...
DS was a live wire all day, but fell asleep in the car just before I hit our driveway....he is still sleeping, it has been almost 4 hours...I am so glad he is resting...and, I got to take a long nap too

I spoke with my Mom this morning...she seemed o.k. and was still resting. I made a turkey soup today in my crockpot...it is only lightly seasoned and has a lot of broth, so I am going to take some to her tonight, or DH can take it and then we can check in on her. I didn't want to take DS up there since he is sick, don't want to expose my Mom to his germs, and he was with me all day. I couldn't help but laugh when I was making the soup, I used the drumsticks and wings that I had frozen from Mr. Turkey I cooked a few months back, and didn't know about his secret stash of goodies

Otherthan that, all is well

Kliz, how exciting your trip to CA is soon and I think you know what to expect and would have a great time in July in WDW.

Kayla, if you get stuck on the Japanese writing I can ask DH's family.

glad he is doing better, and that you BOTH got some rest.

well things are moving right along-I painted the rec room part of the basement this past Saturday-only took me 4 1/2 hrs to get it done(12X30 room) and even painted the crown moulding white so it really looks nice

DH got the wall patched back up where the past owners managed to put a hole thru a cinder block-which in turned caused the block to leak water into the basement-Not anymore

yesterday DH raked the lawn(1/2 acre by hand-poor fellow,he's a bit sore today)

we moved a bunch of stuff to a storage shed from the basement-plenty more to go-will I ever get that darn basement empty!!!

and I cleaned about 3/4 of the garage out yest too!!! lots of garbage-those poor garbage men!!!

Only have 2 bedrooms and a kitchen to paint

need to replace the kitchen counter top and replace the tile(linoeum press down) in the kitchen too!!

then we should be ready to show

Oh I forgot the outside needs to be tweaked too-some painting on the shed and back door plus we could really use a new front door(there's a crack in it)

NOT much to do in 4 weeks is it

I'm sure I left out a few things but that's what we have to do and that's why I'm having trouble sleeping soundly lately-my mind keeps going over everything that still needs to be done and then I can't sleep!!!!

sounds like only a couple of things but in the end it will be worth it. (come on we've all seen those home selling shows on tv!!) Good job painting those rooms on your own, I'd still be there painting!!!

 

[tubachick]

ok-- really leaving.

LAST for now!!!

 

[ckckc2000]

he's not moving with you is he??

He better not!!!! At least it's not in the plans for the rest of my life

Morning Pam!!!

I know it took me like 5 days to paint the living room and ceiling a year ago but this went really quick-I think I'm getting the hang of this painting stuff!!!
