Life right now...
is totally and utterly crazy. In trying to prepare myself for all the work that was going to ensue after we bought our new home I fell sort. BIG. TIME. My feet ache like never before and all the muscles in my body are sore. Since closing on this home we have ripped out carpet (J), put in hardwood (J and his dad), painted the girls room and boys room (J and I). Put together our new table (J, Red and I), vacuumed the 4 bedrooms, stairs, living room, dining room, kitchen and family room (me), mopped all the above rooms except dining room and living room (me), wiped down all the kitchen cabinets etc. (me). We hope to get a truck on Friday night at get all the stuff out of storage and into the house. We have our bed coming on Saturday so we will be sleeping on the air mattress one final night. Throw in the mix that my cousin (20yrs old) passed away and going to the funeral for that this week life has just been BUSY. Even through all this busy-ness I still feel so blessed. There have been times where J has said to me, "This house will either make us stronger or brake us."

It is so much hard work, but it will make you stronger. :)
I am so sorry to hear about your cousin. *hugs*
Yes... thinking back to when we bought our house and proceeded to gut it... I know right where you're at! Sorry to hear about your cousin too. :(
Hang in there. Will be sending prayers for strength and energy and peace your way.
What a wonderful experience to move into your new home minus the really hard work it will require to get it just where you like it.
Good luck to you!
