Unbelievable
| Freaking unbelievable I tell you. I keep asking Tera, "for real? Seriously, for real? Did that just happen?" You see, I bought a new desk, shelf and printer table for the desktop computer. A pretty little set that would look lovely in our bedroom nook. I got up this morning saying that my goal for the day was to get all 3 pieces put together and finish off the backyard. So, at 9:30 this morning I was hard at work. The desk was terribly challenging to get together. The rest wasn't too bad. Then, we went to move the desk and you absolutely won't believe what happened next! It freaking fell apart! No joke! It freaking fell apart! Don't believe me? Seriously....look for yourself!   It took me 2 freaking hours to put that stupid thing together! Oh, and Ozzy has dug up and eaten yet another cannas. He's braver now. He doesn't care if we can see him doing it anymore or how many times we yell at him for it! By the way, there are two new entries under the post titled 'nightmare'. Enjoy everyone! |
Nightmare
| OH MY GOSH!!!!! Last night, I had the worst nightmare I have ever had! My mom forced me to go shopping at the evil empire! Needless to say, I flung out of bed this morning in terror. Thank goodness it wasn't real! That's what I get for going to sleep watching a scarey movie! Anywho, sorry that we haven't updated all weekend. I know it's probably been driving everyone nuts. This working thing just screws me up in all kinds of ways. I worked two days last week. Once at the high school....and please remind me to NEVER substitute for freshman again! Seriously, how do you end up sending 6 kids to the principals office out of 2 classes? Then, I subbed for the junior high. Happened to be Zoe's science teacher's husband...who also teaches science. Zoe just loves her science teacher and I really love hearing about what a neat kid we have and how wonderful she is! Shhh....Mrs. Birks (the science teacher) and I aren't telling Zoe what we talked about that day. We kinda like torturing her like that. Tehehehe Hopefully today I will get all of the gardening pictures up. Jeff spent all weekend building the crates for his airplanes. And Tony and George came by and bought two of the airplanes from us! YAY! This week is all about the kitchen, sunroom and our bedroom. I have to put together the new desk that I bought last week so that I can move the desk out of the sunroom and "stage" the bedroom nook as an office. We need to paint the kitchen. And the furniture in the sunroom needs to be torn apart and delivered to mom's house by the end of the week. Then we need to strip the sunroom down for a thorough cleaning and "stage" it with the nice light wicker furniture that we bought for it. Did I tell you about the amazing deal I found at Pier 1? WOW! Paid next to nothing for a settee and table since it was the floor display! Tehehehe. I love finding deals like that. Ozzy almost died this weekend though. He seems to love digging in my new flower bed in front of the shop and not only dug up, but ate 3 of the 5 cannas already. ARGH! Jeff has been working overtime trying to protect that little twirp from a long and painful death! Muwahaha. Other than that, not much going on here. I'm working at the junior high again tomorrow. Jeff's fini flight is on Wednesday. I will be there, along with the kids and my mom. I'm hoping to work on Thursday and Friday too. So, today's the day to get most of the big stuff done. The rest will be done in the evenings and Wednesday morning. Then, we will start packing up what we can of the shop on Saturday and Sunday morning, we leave for The Great Wolf Lodge for the night. Everyone is super excited about that. Which reminds me, I need to go buy a new bathing suit at some point this week. I hate bathing suit shopping! ARGH! And on that note, I'm out of here. I was really hoping that the sub line would call this morning, but it doesn't appear that they will. Poop. Probably a blessing though. I always feel guilty if I say no. Tehehehe. Our love to you all! |
