So far so good
Posted by elizabethgomez on November 14, 2007
So far so good, or at least that is what I am telling myself. As some of you know Jenn and I have done a lot with remodeling some of the house this summer and it is looking really great. The kitchen, bathroom were remodeled and painted. The dinningroom was painted and new furniture was purchased. The attic got some recycled blue jean insulation and dry wall. And today oh today what can I say about today ? What word comes to mind HELL !!! Jenn and I decided to paint the upstairs hallway, and stairway this past weekend. Which we did, and it looks great. The colors gave everything a new fresh facelift. So today the carpet people came and they were in and out carrying out old carpet, basically made a mess. I tried to stay calm but had a minor episode. I called Jenn at work and let it all out, she knew this is what was going to happen, however I had to take the day off due to her schedule being full. Now it is all over and done with and the stairs, the attic, hall and bedrooms look GREAT !!! We are looking forward to our open house in December and can’t wait to show off our hard work and the beautiful end result.
In other news Jenn and I have a meeting tomorrow with our case worker to get more files of children who are possibilities, so as far as having a child for the holidays it is looking rather bleak. We will see how this meeting goes tomorrow.
Jenn and I are still going strong with going organic. It is hard to go 100% from the start. I think though that we are heading in the right direction. We are eating better, ( I would guess 90 % organic ) and even making small and big changes in our home, ( like the recycled blue jean insulation). We will continue all this and more ( as new ideas come up) through the new year. No one said it would be easy being green ! But it is so worth it !
