Oh Janet I am so sorry, I pray ours does not drag on that long. The current projects have to be done by the end of June as we have our Bestest Friends coming in from South Carolina to stay with us. As for our contractor, I am fairly certain he would have noticed the breaks if I had not pointed them out. When he was doing the bathroom he was unhappy with the quality of the first bathtub he bought so he took it back and got this gorgeous deep soaking tub. I'll have to take pictures and share.

My remodeling has been going on so long I forget what it is I am fixing. Oh well. Carl surprised me yesterday by shampooing our bedroom carpeting. It really needs replacing but with 3 dogs and a cat we keep putting it off. Someday....
And yes, you can expect some issues to arise. Just be glad the contractor is willing to work with you to remedy the problems.

having to sit and be cool anywhere right now here is not an issue LOL. I remember those plants they will be really nice around the trees!
I am VERY stiff and sore today. I spent yesterday sanding off paint runs on the new wainscoting we put up and Mom tried to help and paint this was done sitting and crawling on the cold tile floor. Then I repainted the entire wall..Also found that two pieces of the granite used in the counter top had broke. Had the fun of showing it to the contractor, he was not happy but want's it right so he is getting more granite so he can fix it. I guess it's not remodeling if you don't run into some issues eh?

I'm glad the remodel is going so well.
I spent the morning pulling some pretty plants out of the flower bed. I really like them, but they are taking over. We moved some of them to around the trees -- they will stop some of the erosion there and we can keep them in check with the lawn mower. I'd still be out there, but I have to look at essays. Now that I'm inside, I also realize that I need to sit somewhere cool and drink lots of water anyway!

Janet, I think you need to hide your work schedule from Mother Nature LOL Well our weather is back to normal, the sun and 70's were wonderful but Wednesday brought back our normal wet gray spring weather.
The remodel on the downstairs of my house is all done but the clean up and getting the large family room back in order. It sure is nice. I can't believe what a difference it has all made. Yesterday the contractor was putting in the granite counter top in the kitchen and I believe there is enough remaining in the budget to have the master bath shower redone.

It is gorgeous here!! Thank goodness too because Friday is it! I'm going to court and the divorce will be final! My ex called me at work today trying to stir up stuff and I hate to say it but I let him win...but only for a moment. This all does hurt because I never did want to be divorced but here we are and I am so excited about starting the rest of my life without abuse. I did hang up on him after a few minutes and realized that after Friday I don't have to listen to it anymore!! I can't wait for that weight to be lifted!!!
Until then I am continuing to focus on my faith, myself, my boys, and my move!! One week from today I will be HOME!!! I have a lot of good going on in my life and refuse to let this abuser steal my joy! :)

Enjoying life! :)

What a difference some sunshine and warm weather can make. The sun finally decided to visit Seattle and we had 76 degrees yesterday! Spent the day walking and taking photos. Today is suppose to be just as nice. I feel so good having spent the day in the sunshine and fresh air. I feel like i can do ANYTHING!

I'm back!!!!
Things have been so crazy for me. My jobs are still taking up most of my time and my hormones are so out of whack that most days I just want to survive the day. I've put a lot of my weight back on and that has not helped my mood but I think I have hit about as low as I can go so I've made up my mind to get my act together and at least take control of what I put in my mouth. It just may be the only thing I have control of right now, but hey you gotta start somewhere right?

I thought it was Friday on Tuesday, and every day has felt like over time since! Two classes are working on research papers, and that is about the most taxing (for me) unit I teach. It's not something you can "whole class" teach -- it's 57 individual thesis statements and outlines that need to be tweaked.
I didn't do laundry last weekend, and I'm helping a friend move tomorrow, so it's going to be a busy weekend. Summer is coming, so it's just a case a taking a deep breath and pushing on through.
Christi -- 44 hours shortly after surgery, and you wonder why you're hurting! Be patient with your body!

Thanks Mom!
Thank goodness today is a better day! I am still hurting but the pain is much more tolerable. I think if I could figure out what is triggering the pain it might help? I think that's the biggest issue-feeling helpless. :( So I am going to do more research about IBS and endometrosis and 'pretend' that is what's wrong so I can feel like I'm doing something.
It is absolutely gorgeous here today. If I feel up to it I think I might take a walk around the neighborhood after dinner. It's been a long time since I've done that and the fresh air would do me good.
Goal for today: pack two boxes and do some research!! :)

I do know what you mean but if you take the time to think about ALL your body has been through recently it will at least slow you down I am betting you'll be back to hard charging and feeling better in no time, it will just FEEL like a long time. Besides you gotta get completely healed so you will feel well enough to tackle that move. (Sorry I got my Mom on)
Hoping everyone has a Healthy Happy day.

Christi, that is no good. You do need to give your body time to heal it has been through a LOT! Now no beating yourself up,, it's baby step time and soon you will be back up to full speed.
I read a pretty good quote about change yesterday " Life does not come with a remote, get up and change it yourself"
I got up and stared the change process. There are things I have been dealing with and denying for years but I have decided I needed help with them and am working on that change. I am looking forward to no longer carrying these old burdens and being able to move forward.

I miss having time to spend with my friends, and we're all looking forward to summer. I'm still trying to find out when the classes will be held for the additional certifications I need and which certifications I MUST have by the start of the school year. I'm determined to find time for friends and exercise no matter what the agenda becomes.
Our free teacher day at the National Whitewater Center is tomorrow, so we'll be exercising. I guess I should have finalized my lesson plans for next week today, but I was lazy! I hadn't expected to start teaching again until the end of April, but that changed this week. It's not a bad change -- it just means a change in my plans.

I have been missing my friends a lot lately. My BFF just started a new relationship and together they both have five kids who are all in activities so I feel like I've been deserted so to speak. I guess its just the age I'm at. Everyone has their own lives and their own things and its hard to find friends who will make time for you.

You vent any time you want Girlie. I am so sorry your ex is dragging his feet, seems to me he just keeps on reinforcing that you were right to call an end to this toxic relationship.
Thank you for the compliment on the photo, it was gorgeous that evening, one of the many reasons I want to move there as soon as we can, that and having such wonderful friends there. It would make going to lunch, dinner or just plain getting together so much easier LOL.

Oh wow! That one of the sunset is stunning!!!! I am so glad you guys had fun. :)
Another slow day at work and OMG do I feel like my entire body is one big bruise. I just ache! I am ready to be better! :(
Got into it with the ex last night. Can you believe he's had the divorce papers for six weeks and still won't sign them because "I need to have a meeting with my lawyer to go over everything and make sure I know what's up". I've told him so many times its the exact same thing as the temporary orders but he thinks I'm trying to pull a fast one on him. Really?! You have the papers! Read them!!
Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest. I feel better... I am so ready to start this new phase of my life and I was hoping I would be divorced before I moved into the house but if he keeps stalling that doesn't look like it'll happen. :(

That is true! Though I do have to say I know several people who say that to me a lot and know what I need help with but still do not help. H'm...I will make sure next time I say that to someone I'll follow it up with "Can I help you with anything?" LOL

MBG - the 5lbs is what's left after getting rid of the sodium weight! With my thyroid, it's just so easy to gain weight once I go over 1400 calories and then it takes forever to lose it again.
Christi - I know what you mean about people saying you need to take it easy but then not helping you take it easy. I think people just don't know what they can do to help most of the time.

I am so glad you guys had a great trip!
I am back to work though I am painfully here. Trying not to push myself but considering the fact that I'm the only tech and we've been pretty busy... You know what's funny? Everyone tells you to rest and take it easy yet no one ever offers to help you do what you need to do so you can rest and take it easy. Little food for thought for ya! LOL ;)
D has his first Kindergarten program tonight and I am so 'cited (his word! LOL) for him! He literally jumped out of bed this morning he was so excited. So I am choosing to focus on that and not my pain. :)

We had hail and 2 inches of rain, but no tornadoes that I've heard of.

Me too! They say there were over a dozen tornadoes that touched down yesterday all over DFW and the hardest hit was just across the highway from our new house! There was a lot of damage and injuries but praise the Lord no deaths which is a miracle.
I am so glad you're having a good trip. :) You totally deserve it.

Enjoying life! :)

Thank you. It has been both a wonderful day and a wonderful week with lots of good food, good friends, and good opportunities for exercise! Both MBG and I had to buy new walking shoes!
I'm glad you came through the storms ok, Christi.

OH NO!!! I am so glad you are ok Christi. I can't imagine how frightening and having to crouch like that after having just had surgery, you poor thing.
It has been so wonderful here in South Carolina with such amazing friends. BTW HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS_HBE

How awesome!! I know you guys are having fun!!
Today was a very scary day. We had a lot of tornadoes hit the DFW Metroplex and me being hurt and home alone was the scariest feeling. Thank goodness me and everyone in my family are ok but I'm hurting now because of putting pillows and blankets in the bathtub and crouching in there while each storm passed. I am so thankful right now.

I do hope April finds all are well...hopefully April Fools Day wasn't to hard on y'all.
Sorry this is a little late, I am in the Beautiful State of South Carolina visiting with MRS_HBE and the Major. What a change in temps and weather. I have not been this warm or smiled this much in such a long time. I just love being surrounded with all this rich history.
Christi, I do pray you are recovering well.

TOPIC: 
As for our contractor, I am fairly certain he would have noticed the breaks if I had not pointed them out. When he was doing the bathroom he was unhappy with the quality of the first bathtub he bought so he took it back and got this gorgeous deep soaking tub. I'll have to take pictures and share.
this was done sitting and crawling on the cold tile floor. Then I repainted the entire wall..Also found that two pieces of the granite used in the counter top had broke. Had the fun of showing it to the contractor, he was not happy but want's it right so he is getting more granite so he can fix it. I guess it's not remodeling if you don't run into some issues eh?
and lots of positive vibes your way.
I posted 2 photos from the trip
