Momma Drama

Lately, I have:

Worked on changing out the light in the kitchen, it's still not flush with the ceiling. What gives?!? Done the last of the Citri-stripping on the hoosier cabinet, sanded it, cleaned it, and linseed oiled it. Put up the antique broom holder behind the kitchen door. Finished sanding the corners of the kitchen floor. Researched the various types of wood floor sealers and urathanes.

I have patched a few holes in the dining room walls, primed and painted those spots. Reorganized and decluttered the dining room.

Got the bathroom floor just about scrubbed and ready to seal. I ran out of stripper and need to get more tomorrow.

Put the guest room closet back together. Hung the bear head in the guest room.....oy vey!

Painted the living room ceiling, and re-bordered the room. Touched up some spots on the walls.

Finished the stairway......patched all the holes, caulked the edges, hung the textured wallpaper, and painted it on one wall. Put fresh paint on the other walls and ceiling of it. (Over 12' high that stairwell is.......not my favorite place to be, up on the extension ladder/plank system. I will be taking a big fat pass when Joe from Fear Factor calls me about being on the show. That was worse than being on the roof I do believe.

Patched some spots in the hallway upstairs, primed and painted them.

Primed and painted Trent's closet.

Helped my gf move some of her things into our attic. She is going to cooking school in NH next month. My other gf was here the last two days to help with some of this stuff, thank goodness for her! Her Dh was outside blowing the leaves for us too, how lucky are we?

Scrapped 8 L/O's. Yay!

The home stretch is sooo close, I can see it! Except we are going to bite the bullet and have the handyman start both our bedroom and the girl's bedroom at the same time. No sense having two major cleanups, two seperate insulation blower rental times, blah, blah, blah. Help me Jesus. The handyman is coming tomorrow to do the laundry room also. Put up 2x4's, insulate, and drywall.

I really need to figure out a webpage to post pictures to....

Tomorrow is Devin's Halloween party at preschool. Her Super Devin stuff is in the washing machine as I type. I need to go to HD (darn!) and Meijer's tomorrow. Trent's birthday is just around the corner, and I have no real plan yet. Except that I know I need cake and frosting, and a hook for his costume. His party at school is on Friday. We have preschool open house Thursday night and a soccer party on Friday night.

And now? I have about enough energy to go eat some dump cake and ice cream, then hit the hay. ;) G'night all!
