460!

OMG!!

I'm moving in less than two weeks! wow.

I'm excited! I really am. But part of me, is kind of wondering what it will be like at our new house. The neighborhood is quiet. VERY quiet. Some or most of the people around us are only here in the Summer or on weekends. And now instead of being 2.5 miles from my parents house, where I love to go visit, I will be about 10 miles away.

I'm also wondering how in the hell we are going to get everything done in two weeks. Well not even two weeks in ELEVEN days!

11! that is all we have left.

AND we have a LOT to do in the "new" house and a lot to wrap up here. But I guess we will just have to see how it all goes.

This Saturday we are getting our new appliances delivered and installed so that is good. Then I think we will probably stay at the "new" house Saturday night... maybe.

Tomorrow night my brother, Ryan, is going to be cutting the hole in our foundation for our egress window... I'm anxious to see how that comes out. :) then they will finish sheet rocking our bedroom. We have been through over 60 sheets of sheet rock already and still need more. We thought about 48 would do it... I guess we were off. ;)

We have to fix a few things in the kids rooms before I can start painting in there. The girls room we are going to mark off so we can paint it stripes of the colors they picked. They each picked a color.

And in Trevor's room I will need to paint the room with grey primer first before painting his green and his blue colors. I already marked off the walls for where the white stripe will go. :)

I think their rooms are going to come out so nice. I cannot wait.

Our room will need a coat of primer before we can paint it b/c it all new sheet rock. :) But we have no flooring down so it will be easier to paint that room. :) yay.

Well I'm going to go back to cleaning and doing things around here. I feel good. I got the dishes done up and a bunch of laundry done and I even packed three boxes! Go me!! :)

Have a good night.

Thank you...

Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and prayers! They worked!! My dad just called me at 8:32 AM to say that my mom was done with surgery and that the Dr said it went very well. She is in recovery now, and they said that she will probably be there for 2 hrs. Whew!! Thank God!

You are all amazing with all your comments and support... I cannot tell you how much it means to me, thank you so much!!

Love, Jenn

Thursday Thirteen Second Post for Today... check out my other one too! :)

thirteen random things...

because I have no idea what to do my TT about today

and really want to do one just to do it,

but don't feel like coming up with an idea.

1. My house is pretty warm inside today... seems like a while since I was actually REALLY warm in the house. I hope this is a sign that WARMER weather is coming soon!
2. I'm really, very happy about Daylights Savings Time, it makes the days so much longer and brighter and really happier around here and I don't mean to bitch and complain but now I cannot wait for green grass and sunshine all day!!
3. Brooke & Lauren will NOT stay out of the bathroom! They are continually in there **"Washing their hands" which is code for MAKING A MESS & USING UP ALL THE SOAP!!!
4. I have kindergarten registration for Trevor today, which makes it seem a little more real that he will actually be going to kindergarten in the Fall. When did this happen?
5. When I say When did this happen? I really want to know when this happened. I cannot even begin to fathom the idea that my little boy is going to be 5 and go to kindergarten. I honestly feel like I"m making it all up just to have something to talk about, but it is real. wow
6. I have a little over an hour until I have to leave to register Trevor for kindergarten, so I should get up and start getting the girls and myself ready to go.
7. The sun just came out and it looks so nice out, well at least the sunshine does, the barren trees, dead grass and dirty snow looks horribly depressing.
8. Lauren and Brooke are in the living room singing and dancing to Ring Around the Rosie, but all they sing is ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes ashes, we all fall down then they start over again with ashes. Pretty cute!!
9. Trevor took the bus into school this morning, first time this week. He said he had to ride the bus because he knew that Stella (his bus driver) really really missed him a lot.
10. I think I might kidnap Trevor from school after I'm done with my appointment there. Hey, I'll be there already and plus it will save me a trip there later. And most important I'll have my boy home with me. :)
11. Brooke & Lauren both always really want to get into the dog crate, and play, but it is gross in there, although she doesn't mess in there any more and I clean it regularly, it is still a Dog Crate. Gross!!!
12. I actually hung up some clothes on the new bar Bryan made for me in the "closet" in my room today, although it has been up for about 2 weeks. I know I'm on the ball aren't I?
13. I'm actually going to get up from the computer and walk away after I type this last line and hit "Publish Post" and get things ready for us to leave.
