Cleaning house and I ran into the livingroom to investigate the sound of a stampede and I came upon this picture.
The sound happened to be my drying laundry being soaked by a sudden summer downpour...it is still sunny and 90 degrees outside! Okay, so it will all have to remain on the line a bit longer.
Megan celebrated her 13th birthday at the YMCA. I let the kids use a waterproof camera (I 'll put them on when I get the camera back). She had a wonderful time and loved having all her friends there. She picked out a Hawaiian beach themed birthday cake at Walmart and then they all swam for an hour before pigging out on pizza and cake. At least there was no mess in our mess of a house!
Yes, I don't know if I've mentioned this, but we bought a crappy house. One that was not built correctly and we are slowly, very slowly having to fix replace or remodel. The faulty roof line has led to leaking everytime it rains...until now. After two contractors we finally found the last bit of problem a month ago, fixed it, then waited to see if our fixes worked. Two bad downpours later and no water, Yeah! Paul got the new insulation and drywall done and I've been busy taping and floating. Hopefully I can get that done by the end of the week. I had another contractor here to give an estimate on taking out a wall between the kitchen and dining room and then blocking the entrance to the kitchen from the living room (too many openings and too little wall space). So now we are sitting on that bid, as well as a landscaper to finish our front yard. I may have to sell a child just to get my house liveable! LOL!
