You see....today we were informed that the construction crew is coming to rip out the walls next week already!!!! HURRAY!!! and EEEK!!!
So there may not be alot happening here on the blog for awhile because we have tons to do before they get here. Like.....
finish packing up the dishes in the kitchen and finish setting up a makeshift kitchen in the spare room....
rip out the cupboards in the kitchen....
rip out the tile ceiling in the dining room....
clean out the laundry room and figure out where to store the machines....
take down the trim around the windows.....
take down the light fixtures....
order the cabinets....(at least we have them all picked out now)
buy the primer and paint....
prime and paint the cabinets.....
pick out a sink and faucet....
figure out what water filter to go with....
figure out how many and what kind of light fixtures and buy them....
and somewhere in there paint all the new drywall, repair the floor, and CELEBRATE CRICKET'S 6TH BIRTHDAY!
phew! i'm tired just making the list.
so...if you think of us in the next couple of days/weeks....pray for us! My prayer is for us to get through this whole process with thankful hearts, calm spirits, and healthy bodies. (and perhaps a little money left in the savings too?!)
well...papa is putting the boys to bed....i'm going to brew a pot of coffee, put on my monkey pants, and get out the crowbar. (huh...is that how you spell that? spellcheck says yes but it just looks so funny...) i think i'm going to enjoy the ripping out part.....
