Wow, it amazes me once again just how fast time flies when I am blogging. I swear I wake up, live my day, and then ready to blog again! Today was a fantastic day and I really accomplished a lot for the home. Some ceiling fans are up, some decorations were bought and put up, and I am looking forward to posting some before and after pics here soon!
This morning I had to get up bright and early to get a 24 inch pole for one of our ceiling fans as they did not have it at the Home Depot we went to last night. After that I drove through Einstein Bagel and got us some breakfast! I feel so lucky to live near one of these places again! David and I spent many an ASU morning eating breakfast from there.
The electricians and painter came today. So yesterday, the painter accidentally walked around the upstairs through dark blue paint and walked it all over the carpet....not exactly something I was going to share on my happy moment blog! But I am REALLY pleased to report that with some "Goof Off" and "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser" (that part was my idea) the navy blue paint is gone and my carpets are once again restored to their former glory! HAPPY! As a happy bonus, the painter, whom we call "Mr. Mike" is thrilled to have discovered what "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser" is. He is now fully aware of the miraculous works of that mysterious sponge!
We did lunch and dinner with my mom and Alice tonight. It was their last evening here with us as they will be flying home tomorrow. We have had a lot of fun shopping and discovering the MANY restaurants our town has to offer! We will all be sad to see them go, but are so thankful for the happy moments we all made together.
After dinner I went to a person in our congregation's home and had a meeting on the upcoming school year. Connor is going to be going to a co-op preschool one time a week and another preschool 3 times per week somewhere else. They do full day kinder out here in Texas so I want him to be as ready as possible when the time comes! I am so thankful for the new friends I am meeting! These ladies were funny and fabulous!
This evening, our good friends that we have known for years and who I basically grew up knowing their parents AND their children got to come over for a tour of the home and a visit with my mom and Alice. It was really nice to see them and they brought over another Aero Bed so Joel doesn't have to sleep on the floor anymore! He is SUPER happy about that LOL. We were rotating Joel and Connor on the floor but Connor slept so much better in bed.
Speaking of bed, it is once again almost midnight. I SO look forward to the day that I can get to bed at a decent hour! There is just so much to be done each day and any break I get I savor! One final happy moment of the day was that our home in California closed today. I hope the new people living there enjoy each moment and have lots of joy in their "new" place! I am also so grateful that I can now pay off our credit card bill! That thing was getting out of control and we just kept saying, "Well, hopefully escrow will close soon!" It did and we are all good. Have a happy night all!
