Oct. 15, 2006 - Working Diligenty To Get This Job Done
Okay so I've been busy ALL WEEK LONG.....
PAINTING & SEWING...
But atleast my kitchen is finally done
And my sister returned on friday to help with the curtains
and my mom came too, YAY!!!
since my dad went on a church camping trip
and so we were busy at it all night just about on my curtains
and as of today they are finished too,
well almost...lol..
I'm having a bit of a problem with the balloon shades,
they aren't coming up the way they should...
so hopefully I'll be able to study the pattern incessantly
until I figure the stupid thing out, good grief!!!
And besides all that,
we've been clearing out the downstairs schoolroom
that will soon become our workout room
and moving everything upstairs to the bonus room
which will be our new schoolroom. T
he bonus room has much more room and so I'm pretty excited.
And what's even more exciting is the fact that I did NOT want to move my computer into the schoolroom upstairs because I didn't want it to be easily accessible to the children and so I had found a computer armoire at wal-mart ON SALE for under a 100 bucks, CAN'T BEAT THAT!!!!and so dh gave me the money for it and so I called the store this weekend BEFORE getting in the car to travel a gazillion miles to the store and guess what???they had my armoire but it was the LAST ONE and it had been on display but nothing was wrong w/it and they had taken another 40 bucks off so I ended up getting it for 60 bucks!!! YAY!!!! God is soooo GOOD!!!! And my dd was blessed by that as well because we had put some clothing on lay away for her several weeks ago and I was going to have to wait another 2 weeks for the next payday before I could get them out of lawaway BUT guess what??? I only owed 40 bucks on her lawaway so I was able to use the 40 bucks that I would have spent on my armoire on her layaway, another blessing!!! YAY!!!!
GOD IS GOOD!!!!ALL THE TIME!!!
And so we put the armoire in my bedroom right next to the schoolroom. It's all coming together, don't you just LOVE IT when it does? me too!
I'll just be glad when it's all over with and my house is in order once more.
My poor dh is not liking all this mess in between but I think seeing atleast one finished product (the kitchen) has somewhat comforted him a bit and me too!!!
My children are hauling off stacks of books, etc. up to the new schoolroom as we speak and I think I need to help a bit now because I'd like to atleast be able to put my dh's workout equipment into this room instead in the entryway for everyone to bump into, uggghhhh......
"All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty." Proverbs 14:23
GOD BLESS YOU!!!

Wow. Sounds like a lot of work going on in your home. I can relate to the chaos. I just brought home a bunch of furniture from my grandmother's house, and it is a madhouse here. I wish I had I had your vision for what it was going to look like! Have fun redecorating.
