Storm's a comin......

You know the old saying that bad things come in three's?? Or even the saying when it rains it pours? Well I'm really not looking forward to it. So far we're two for three and I can feel the storm coming.

First Kevin loses his job, (ok I've come to grips with it now), but then today Miya decided to eat some liquid bug killer that she knocked over and we had to take her to the emergency vet clinic. She's there right now while we're paying about $450.00 for it. With Kevin losing his job I've become one of those penny pinchers so it was really hard to pay for it, but at the same time I don't want Miya to die and yes, I am more worried about her than the money, but I hate it. I'm so not looking forward to seeing what the third bad thing to happen to us will be. I just have this feeling that Kevin is going to end up cutting off a finger or something. Admit it, you can see it happening. I just pray that the lord will help us through this difficult time. And thanks to everyone for all of their support and concern. You guys are great.

Home is a project...

There needs to be a sign that says not Home Sweet Home, but Home is a work in progress, (or something to that effect). I feel like I have so many plans and things to work on that they'll never get done. We'll start one thing and then before we finish it we're working on something else and the original project just sits there half finished, like my kitchen. I painted half of it and then got so busy doing everything else that I just haven't taken the time to finish it. That and I just don't want to. But I did get my lamppost and front door painted today!!! GO ME!!! I was motivated for a couple of hours there, but it died down. Now I think I'm going to go to Barnes and Noble to wind down a little and browse some books. I have a coupon and I really want to use it, I just don't know what I want to get yet...

Long time....

Obviously it's been a while since I've done anything on my blog. I wish I could have, but it's a little difficult without internet. But I really don't mind not having the internet, Kevin actually spends more time with me than he does on the computer, which has been nice.
Anyway, everyone already knows this, but we've got our house. (See pictures in earlier post). As soon as I get the internet at my house I'll post more pics.
I love being a homeowner. There's a lot of work to put into an unfinished 1959 year old house, but I would never go back. We have the majority of the master shower torn out, (it had a leak and couldn't be fixed without demolition) and my closet is half finished. I'm putting shelves in it instead of just a hanger bar. I don't have any clothes that I hang up. So shelves it is. We have a lot of other projects and hopefully we can recruit some help because Kevin and I don't always know exactly what we're doing. So everyone be waiting for a phone call one of these weeks.
All in all, we're having a good ole' time.

I'll try to keep this up to date, but I can't make any promises. I don't know when I'll get a chance to do it again with being so busy. TTFN!!!
