Long time

Oh my it’s been a long time since I’ve up dated this. I’ve been working on my laundry room. I spackled, sanded (thanks dad for the sander, sorry I broke it), and painted the room. The color is applesauce cake; it’s a brown, not to dark, not to light, perfect for my laundry room. I’ll post before and after pictures in a few days.

The kids were thrilled to be allowed to help paint. I let them do some parts of the walls that were going to be covered over or I had to paint again. They were just happy using the rollers and getting to wear their painting cloths again.

This is a funny story from today. Ed decided to go get his hair cut after work and before he had to take William to wrestling. He went to the local big chain hair cutting place that he always goes to. There are a few women in there that have cut his hair to his liking, none of them were there today. There is one guy that he won’t let any where near his head.

He came home not liking the hair cut; I didn’t think it looked that bad.

Me: Why did you let her cut your hair?
Ed: She was hot
Me: We’ve had this conversation, not all “hot” women can cut hair
Ed: It was either her or the guy, and he wasn’t touching my hair!
Now William entered the room.
Me: (talking to Ed) Did you have that girl before?
Ed: No, so I thought I’d give her a chance
W: Dad got his hair cut by a hot girl.
Me: Oh yea? Do you know what hot means?
W: Beautiful
Me: That’s kind of correct, how do you know that?
W: I don’t know, it also means like fire is hot.


Natalie is in the talent show and I’m in the middle of making the girls costumes. The skirts are almost done and I still have about a month before the show so I’m hoping I’m in good shape. I have material to cover a chair; I’m making a slip cover. This is new to me so wish me luck! I’m on Ed’s case to get the back bathroom finished, the fan/light, and surround have to go in, and a door knob (I think visitors would like to be able to close the door when they are using it). Then we get to start on the front bathroom or the upstairs, not sure which comes next. I’m trying to take before and after shots of everything, so I’ll post them when I can.

I’ll try to be better with my updates, but I can’t promise anything. I’ll put Natalie’s cheerleading picture up as soon as they come in.
