Uh Huh

I'm still keeping up that hectic posting schedule!  Whew!

We are now at the beginning of a new school year for the kids, a school year which claims all three of them for a full school day.  So! Liberating!  I can actually Get Things Done during the day--multiple Things, even!  So the house should be spotless, and there should be an elaborate, healthy, hot dinner on the table every day, right?  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Instead, every room is a labyrinth of boxes and bins to navigate, and there is a 3mm layer of dust on everything, including the cat hair tumbleweeds.  It's alright though, because it means RENOVATIONS ARE HAPPENING GLORY BE.  The basement has been gutted and is about to be rebuilt, so everything that was down there has been brought up here (or shoved in the garage), and a thick layer of dust has settled over and into everything.  The disgusting fireplace has been knocked out, and in its place is a hole wrapped in plastic.  Tomorrow the gross spindle wall is coming down, as well as the wall which creates a redundant hallway.  We may also knock out the bathroom wall, but that one will have to wait until we have a finished bathroom downstairs to use while the main floor bathroom is non-operational. 

I am super happy about this.  Even the crazy, dusty bits.  Even the moving-furniture-by-myself-in-an-overcrowded-dusty-room bits (which is what I am doing this weekend, in prep for the wall-bludgeoning tomorrow).  It's all good, baby.
