February 11 Another lovely weekendYou can always tell when spring fever hits my house, because I start finding reasons to go outside, even if it is to drink my morning coffee on the weekends. (A sure sign that I am no longer a wild, single person) But I also have figured out that, this is the time that my husband and I start new projects in the house. First couple of years it was little things, painting bedrooms, then we progressed to cutting trees down in the yard that were dying or in the way. Then we took it yet another step further and ripped up the kitchen floor and redoing that. Now, we have resorted to moving the counter that was once an island back to its original spot, sounds pretty easy, huh??
Remember, this is my family and we never do anything easy. Well, I wanted it put back where it was but wanted a different top, and since we hd to change it anyway, why not make it interesting. So, I have convinced him that instead of replacing all of the counters, we would do a tiled top on the island. Here's the kicker, we started this project Sunday, as usual, and its not done yet. Guess who is impatient...ME! I want it yesterday and unfortunately, I'm having to take seven of the 15 tiles back because they are damaged. This is not going according to plan, Nothing ever does, so why should it start now??? I will keep you posted on this project. FYI...we still haven't finished the laundry room either.
Oh, you know your beautiful little babies, and all of their cute moments that you wish you had a camera for??? Well, my wonderful 2 year old, in her infinate wisdom, made me have one of those days on Saturday. I was outside, as it was a pretty nice day, and I was cleaning out my flower bed near my fish pond. (Don't worry, the fish are safely inside out of the cold, however, we do know that you can freeze goldfish and they really do come back to life) But, after telling her 3, maybe 4 dozen times that she needed to stop walking on the rocks, I just gave up. But it was a moment too soon. No sooner did I turn back around to collect my stuff and get out of the bed, she takes a flying leap right into the pond. As she is screaming, and I, being the great mother I am, am about to lose it cause I am laughing so hard, my hubby comes running around the truck to see what happened. All I can do is laugh and stripe to nothing and run her inside. All in all, she is fine and laughed later about it.
What is so funny, was that later that afternoon, I got pics of her around yet another pond/fountain at a mall. Told you I was a great mom. Comments (4)
