Thanks, Lisa!
Do you hear that? It's peace and quiet! At least it will be for a few minutes. My DH had to run some errands and took the kids with him.
It's been a very busy couple of weeks. My DH was able to get the appliances and the furnace fixed. Thank you, Lord!
We do have to replace our kitchen floor though and we were blessed with a great deal on laminate flooring, so we got enough to do the living room too. Of course, we have to re-paint the walls before we put the floor down. Oh, and did I mention that the girls would love their room to be re-painted too? Oh, and maybe a new dresser to replace the one that broke? Oh, and new bunk beds and a new mattress since the dog had a field day with the old one? Don't you LOVE how remodeling projects morph into something else?!?!? LOL!
And did I mention that all of this needs to be done by November 19th when we are having DD10's birthday?!?!?
Okay, deep breath....Moving on!
Today, we are going to my cousin's 16th birthday party and to Home Depot to get paint and a tub surround. Tomorrow, we'll go to church, come home, and get started on the remodeling projects. My DH has a very busy week ahead and tomorrow is his only real chance to get something done.
We are almost completely funded for our Disney trip!
The two categories we are still working on are food and fuel for the rental car. We need $445 and so far, we have $254.41 or 57%. The rest of the categories (hotel, car rental, pet sitter, and Disney and Legoland tickets) are 100% funded. Yay!
Once we get the other 43% (or $190.59) in the bank, we will continue to save money for any extras: mini golf, Wolfgang Puck Express, rent a boat, Wolfgang Puck Express, souvenirs, Wolfgang Puck Express, e.t.c. (Wolfgang Puck Express!
)
Well, that's about all from here. Have a wonderful weekend!
