Joe finished the boy’s room today and it looks so good. The blue we picked out for the walls is gorgeous. I think he’ll really like it. I also cleaned and set up the kids’ bathroom. We went with a rubber ducky theme which I think they will like. There’s this ugly floral pattern around the top edge of their bathroom wall, so we’ll have to get that down at some point, but there’s too many more important things to finish. Joe is trying to get all the painting in the bedrooms done so we can steam clean the carpeting. Most of the major stuff needs to get done by Sunday since Joe goes back to work Monday.
We ate at home for the first time in awhile this evening. It’s been fast food since Friday because it’s too time consuming to cook. I decided to make tortellini soup, except once I had the onions cooking, I realized we didn’t bring the can opener over yet; Joe had to run to the Walgreens down the street to get one. I swear, I will be so happy once all our stuff is in one place. Most of the little stuff in our apartment has made it to the new place, except some kitchen stuff which is going over tomorrow. We plan to spend our first night at the new place on Thursday and then move all the major furniture (desks, couch, bookshelf and entertainment center) on Friday. We still need to buy bed frames for the kids and the steam cleaner, so I’m guessing it’s gonna be a very busy weekend. We’re not going to have time to put the pergo flooring in the dining room for a couple of weeks.
You are making me very jealous!
Hey catching up around these parts. Damn, you have been one busy girl! Congrats. I know you can’t wait to get settled. Just remember, looking back this will all have seemed like fun.. then. Right now its just work! ;d
LOL, not trying to make anyone jealous, MK.
Charlene, it doesn’t feel too much like work, but I know what you mean. The hardest part is picking the battles as in what can we afford to change now, and what can wait until later, esp. when there’s so much I want to do. I’m going to need a second job. ;)
