So Close!!

My builder says he can have everything finished in 10 days however the gas company says they can't put in the meter and have my furnace running until December 15th. I am so frustrated!!! I wonder if I'll even be moved in before I leave on December 20th for Connecticut? I just want to go home! Living with someone else makes me feel like I can't even call my soul my own :(

Still Homeless

Everything is at a standstill until we get electricity. Can't tile until we have heat so the thinset will dry, can't stain until we have heat, can't do anything else until the tile is in... and did I mention I'm homeless? UGH!!! I'm beginning to think that selling my condo was one of the stupidest things I've ever decided to do! I just want to go to sleep and not wake up until everything is done!! Wahhhhhh!!!!

Moving

Yesterday Paul, Ellen, Joe and Karter moved most of my stuff out of my condo and into Karter's garage. I have my clothes, beauty supplies, computer and cleaning supplies left. I'm washing rugs and getting the rest of my things out today and plan to clean tomorrow. Tuesday is closing day.
I will be living at Karter and Allison's full time starting tonight!!

Babysitting Blues

I've been babysitting the boys since last Monday night and I'm ready to be done. They've actually been quite good but I'm not used to being "on" all the time anymore. Allison and Karter will be home around midnight tonight :)

Tomorrow, Thursday and Friday night Stella and I will get to sleep in our own bed and then on Saturday we have our big move. No, our house isn't ready yet but I'm closing on the condo Tuesday morning. That will give me Sunday and Monday to clean it before handing over the keys. And you guessed it, we're moving in with Allison and Karter so it'll be full time boys until the house is done. Is it wrong to pray for speed for your builder??

Time Really Does Fly!




While packing my craft room, I found this picture of me with my big brother. I must have been about a year old in that picture. That would make Paul around 3-1/2. Wasn't he cute?! I think I'll have a copy of it made for him for his 61rst birthday this week :)

By Request









Bottom picture is the front of my house. Top picture is of the side with the garage. Sarah, that's your bedroom window you see :)


Andy (the builder) says he'll finish sheeting it today and will move on to the shingles next week :)

RAFTERS!

I drove out to Allison's last night and could hardly believe my eyes. My house has rafters and is looking like an actual house now!! Yay!
