Hello????

Anyone out there? 

How was everyone's weekend?
We didn't do much of anything. Saturday we went up to the strip in Williamsport so I could go to Staples and get school supplies. It's so expensive to go to school! Since when are notebooks $5?! Thank goodness they were on sale. Saturday evening I went to Church. It was pouring down rain, and the front of my pants were completely soaked from walking in. It was a very uncomfortable hour.
Sunday I did some laundry. And we put a puzzle together. It was a small one, only took us about 2 hours to do. hah!

    Morning! I am back from training. Madison, WI is such nice city. I had a lot of fun, went to a baseball game and saw a friend from HS. O yea and had a good refresher from college. This weekend was my grandpa's 80th birthday party. He will actually turn 80 Aug.28th but my cousins will be back in school by than. I am exhausted needless to stay but the party was a sauces. I am hoping to go home order pizza, watch some TV and go to bed early. H is out of town again for work till Thursday night. We is gone part of next week too! I miss him already. He should be done traveling for a little while though.

  • Hiya!

     

    Our weekend was pretty good.  We saw Despicable Me  on Sat, it is super cute.  

    Sun we went to church and then wend to see Wicked Divas at the outdoor theater near by.  It was a lot of fun.  We got home late which made getting up early this morning to run a little rough lol.  

     

    I spent 2 hrs this morning at the DMV.  H got to get a new license online with our new address, but it wouldn't let me.  So what should have been easy too them 2 hrs to figure out why the computer said I do not have a previous license. Umm what?  How about the one in my hand which you issued last april...  Its all taken care of now.

  • I've been waiting for life to return. 

     

    Our weekend was good. We slept in both days till 8 which we said we weren't going to do becauses it's totally messing with our weekday  schedules. Dh and I are both exhausted this morning. 

     

    Saturday we were super productive in reclaiming our basement. We had a crack and leak in our foundation in the basement of our house which meant we had to take up half the floor  and one wall. We just finished be basement over a year ago. So now that that is done we have our basement back and it's awesome!! Next up is cleaning the 4th level laundry room (we have a 4 level  backsplit). The 4th level (the basement basement is a disaster!! 

  • I'm a little stressed at the moment.

    We put our house on the market last week (Wednesday). Thursday, we got an offer. We accepted with a counter on Friday. They accepted our counter. Yesterday we put an offer in on a house. They countered this morning. Make it stop!

    I need wine. Or hard liquor.

  • That's exciting that its happening fast kris but stressful! When your having wine or liquor please have some for me! I miss beer! 
  • We took the babies camping this weekend for the first time.  It was an experience.  Not totally good, not awful but we are trying to decide whether or not to do it again this summer like we had planned (and already paid for) or to wait until next summer when they are a little older.

     We are also deep into house hunting and it is so stressful.  We are having all kinds of issues because of the way DH gets paid and files his taxes is really screwing with the whole mortgage approval situation.  We fell in love with a house that already had an offer on it, then that offer fell through only to find out we can't get financing for that house because of the whole tax issue.  It was a big bummer.

  • jlq - I loved back to school shopping!!  Hopefully you got some great notebooks, pens, etc.  When do classes officially start?

    degrea - glad you're home safely and that you had fun in Madison :)  Bummer about your DH being gone though...

    Aggie - that stinks about the DMV!  Ugh so annoying but glad you got it all situated.

    Echo - you have 4 floors in your house?!  That's crazy!

    Kris - good luck with everything!  And I agree that booze is the answer to your problems.

    Jodi - good luck with the house hunting!

    We had a great weekend.  We went to Grand Rapids and spent all day Saturday with a bunch of our friends.  We were supposed to go to the beach but it was freezing so we just walked around.  Then hot tubbed for awhile and then bar hopping.  Good times were had by all.

    Work was crazy busy and will be for about the next month.  I have two doctor's appointments tomorrow so I'm off.  Hopefully the MRI goes quickly and is uneventful.

  • Classes start August 19th! So soon!! I'm not ready! 

    Kris - Holy fast on the house!! Hope the rest goes smoothly!
    Jodi - Hello!!! The girls look so cute in your siggy!!
    Degrea - Sounds like you had a good weekend!
    Aggie - The DMV is the worst!!
    E - Sounds like you had a good weekend, too! Good luck with your MRI tomorrow!

    I put 42 miles on my car today going to the same doctor's office 3 different times for work. ughhhh. SO annoying!! I can't wait to be done there. I'm going to work my other job during school. The hours are more flexible, the pay is better, plus they can put me on a case right in my town.

  • E- each floor is like a half a regular floor though so it's not insane. Between the top two floors and be bottom two there is like 3 steps. It really makes the house feel bigger than it looks though.
