{a blurb or two}

i can't even tell you how behind i am. so, i won't.

**my class reunion is saturday. a portion of saturday evening is here. i will not say there are men in my kitchen busting out a wall/backsplash of tile, putting in new countertops and a sink. i just won't.
**i will not even mention the possible fact there are workers building a fireplace to finish out the patio. nope, because with two days of flooding ahead...there is all the possibility in the world that could be finished, right?
**i will not mention the molding installation was finished yesterday. but, has yet to be prepped and painted. the crew will be back tomorrow and start painting friday -they will need a day and a half to paint. sure, it's all going to be finished.
**i will not mention that the guest bathroom has no sink. because a sink cannot be installed prior to the painting of the trim. remember: that is scheduled for friday or saturday.
**nor, will i mention that we will be without a kitchen sink for 2-3 days. that will be alot of fun, huh? i think i may need to add paper goods to my list. when will i ever make it to the store?
**and, with all of this very well-planned remodeling stint going on, there is no way that every piece of furniture and any item of decor has not been shoved into three bedrooms and a garage. that would just be a blast to put back into place on saturday.
**oh, yeah, the carpets are standing up well to all the feet and the fact we have had days and days of rain. carpet shampoo, eh..maybe saturday afternoon?
**and, noah surely did not state that he will never have the need to move because...he is pretty sure we moved within the walls of our house.
**oh, did scott try to rip up two broken floor tiles and in the process mess up 10? the tilers are not allowing him to enter the kitchen again. ever. i'm pretty sure that is what they said.
**and, i surely did not repaint or paint 3 rooms. i hate to paint remember?
**and, my ice maker did not stop working.
**nor did my dryer.
**or washer. two of the three have indeed been repaired.
**oh, and the landscaping i have worked on for the past month did surely not shrivel up and die because before the floods of noah, i had all the time in the world to water them. dead. dead. dead.
**and, my little son who has never had a real bedroom set - well, did you know that you can buy entire sets in which every.single.piece has to be assembled? 5-drawer chest anyone.

okay, now for the serious part. my best friend is thinking we need to find another location for the after-dinner activities saturday evening. i am thinking she is stressed for me. because, and, this really is the truth. i think i am brain dead at this point, because there is not one single part of my brain that is stressed.

now, back to work. not on the house, i do have a real job, you know. :)

So, you're still alive . . . guess you survived. :o) I don't know how you manage to do it -- you always come out of these tight situations SANE. Amazing! :o) Can't wait to see pics of your re-do.
