camping

Alrighty......so.....looks like camping will be the theme of the month. Went over to new house today to start cleaning up and unpacking and realized...um, the workers are not as close to being done as we were told they would be (supposed to be done Wednesday), so we assessed the situation (power tools all over the place, piles of saw dust, sheetrock in the hallway, half painted walls, etc......) and we realized there is no way we could even make it work in this house with the children. So we are gonna be camping at our rental for another week. I say camping because all we have over here now are our mattresses on the floor, one bucket of toys, one thing of books, a few laundry baskets of clothes and our toiletries, alot of my kitchen stuff is already packed, even my washer/dryer are over at the new house....We eat sitting on our kitchen floor, i mean we have nothing to sit on here..it is crazy....anyway......worst things have happened. I am just thankful our house had not been rented out yet or we would be at a hotel, although staying at a hotel might be cheaper than paying to rent our house on top of paying for the mortgage at our new house (which we were not planing on overlapping those two) Anyway wish us luck, pray for us that we will and the workers will get everything done. Let me know if anyone wants to have my big girls over to play for abit, they sure miss their toys that are all packed.

Oh Heather!!! I really feel for you! Later this week when I'm feeling a bit better you HAVE to come over and play and have lunch on some chairs up to a table!!

Yikes! It just never seems like things can "fall into place" perfectly - there always has to be a challenge. You're certainly in our prayers and we really do hope things level out really soon!

Thus is the life in the construction world! At least you have a warm house and a solid roof over your head. If you were closer, the girls could visit me.
