6 WEEKS IS UP!!

Hello everyone,

I know it has been a while since I last posted anything. Life has taken over!

I went to my 6 week check up today and was told that I could take off my collar and start living life again! I do not have to go to Physical therapy (this shocked me). I will have to do some exercises at home but that is about it. I have been going without my collar for most of the day. After about 3 or 4 hours my neck gets tired so I put it back on for a bit to let it rest. I will try to drive on Sunday. I want to give the muscles awhile to get used to not being in the collar before I put my kids in the car..LOL!!

Rob is not thrilled with the idea that I will be free to go shopping again! We saved so much money by me not being able to drive anywhere! Funny thing is, with the house being so close to closing I really don't want to spend any money! I want to use what money we have to fix up that house if we get it! So who knows maybe God has taught me a valuable lesson here!!

~Enjoy
PS...I have a few projects that I will be sharing soon. So keep an eye out for them!

Checking In




Hello fellow blogger's and crafter's!


I feel really bad that I have not posted anything recently. Life has been so HECTIC to say the least. I have been so busy the last week or so it is not even funny! We have been trying to buy a house. We finally found one that we like and got the bank to accept our offer. Tomorrow we will have our Inspector come out and do a complete inspection on the house and tell us if it is going to fall down as soon as we move in...LOL (Please Lord don't let that be true). We know that if we are able to buy this house that we will have to clean it before moving in (Oh the joys of buying a Foreclosure home.) We have decided that we will be painting the entire upstairs and first floor, cleaning if not removing the carpets and totally remodeling the kitchen...ALL BEFORE MOVING IN!! We have been pricing kitchen cabinets, fixtures, sinks, etc...


We told our landlord/friend that our offer was accepted and that if all goes well we will be moving out soon. She informed us that if we help her sell the house that we currently live in she will give us a commission. So of course we are trying to figure out who we know that can buy the house..Any takers?? We offered to hold an Estate Sale once we move out to help her finish selling the stuff that is still left over from her family living here before us!


The boys have gone back to school now that Spring Break is over and that is taking some adjustment on every one's part. On top of that I have still been trying to complete my healing process. I am on week 4 and still have at least 2 more weeks to go before I start my physical therapy! I sure do hope that I will be able to help out in the remodel and move process if we get the house! I would hate to have to sit on the side and direct everyone where to go.


So that is my week so far and it is only Tuesday!


~Enjoy
