My friend Kay's daughter is here for the summer. So I have her from about 5 pm until 2 AM every day M-Saturday. Which is cool. It will ease the pressure that Shawn created with the loan situation.
A couple permanent kids would be good, but this will help tie us over until we can work that out. Hopefully soon. Seeing as Shawn is home much of the day, my kids don't really count, so I have the space to have two more during the day, and two more in the evening, if I want to burn myself out really fast... just kidding... kind of.
The carpet over there is so gross though. I need to steam clean it. I will do it today.. because it is so nasty... I don't want to move our stuff into that, eventually we will replace it with wood flooring, but we don't need to do that right away. We will probably make that a winter project. We also want to put up a fence, which needs to be done right away, and hopefully, by this fall, I can get up a deck outside... right now there is just some concrete blocks leading to the grass from the doorwall. :\ I can't imagine living somewhere that long and not having it fixed up.
Shawn wants to rip out the bathtub in our bathroom and put in a nice big shower instead. I have to agree. And the wall paper has to all come down.. it is hideous. But that isn't hard, and painting is just a pain... not difficult.
Sigh. Talking about doing the stuff is easier than doing it. I wish we had lots of extra money and we could pay someone else to do this stuff... LOL But we don't. So we will do it ourselves. Should be fun... not.
