I HATE painting!! I am so glad I like the colors I have chosen for the house because I will probably never paint it again,LOL! Only have the kitchen and laundry room left. Well we have the living room left too, but that needs to be drywalled first so I don't have to worry about it for a little while. Otherwise it's all coming along really well. Hopefully the windows that were supposed to be in Wednesday will show up soon. And even the outdoor landscaping and deck are looking a thousand times better. Hoping to move in at the end of the month, keep you fingers crossed for us!
Poor Anna, she has been stuck at the new house doing work almost all summer. We have taken a break for a few outings like the Squirt Zone the other day and trips to get gelato. Next week she has VBS and dance starts for the summer session as well, so she'll be busy with those and I am sure much happier. I on the other hand to not look forward to adding more things into our schedule. I feel like I run ALL day.
And if that wasn't enough, we have decided to join my mom on a trip to Florida in August!! What was I thinking?! We plan to stop at Sea World, which Anna is so excited about. All she has ever wanted was to touch a dolphin and she cannot believe she is going to get to do it! Should be fun, I haven't been to Sea World in a long while. But the main reason for our trip is to visit my Aunt Helena. We miss her a ton and I can't wait to see her and my Uncle Tom. She is gonna freak whan she sees how big and talkative Miss Anna has become. Last time we went she was only 2.5! We also plan to stay at the hotel where I got married, the Helmsley Sandcastle( see above photo). It's a great hotel, right on the ocean. Anna is so excited to see where we got married, so that will make it fun as well. Watch out Helena, here we come!!! LOL!!
So between all the prepping, painitng , cleaning and driving to activities. I get to not only pack and move an entire household, but pack and plan for a road trip to Florida as well. Sounds fun doesn't it? Hopefully laying on the beach will make it all better. Now if I could only lose 50 pounds in a few weeks too....
