too much to update...

But I'm gonna try. Let's see.
Yesterday
- I spent over $5000 at Home Depot. Ordered the cabinets I've been working on for the last couple weeks. Design and everything, its gonna be so awesome.
- I ordered the new laminate flooring for the Den and schedule the measurement session for getting new carpet.
- I had a guy come and give an estimate to do the windows.

Today
-I talked to a guy about formica countertop. Because he said he could order it in a week, Home Depot says 2-3 weeks.
- Had another guy come and give an estimate for the windows, and he beat the other guys estimate cause he hates the window manufacture and says they're windows are better so we'll definitely beat the price, should have new windows in 3-5 weeks.
- Got my nails done.
- And Grif picked up his Tux.

Tomorrow
- Going to Bay Area for rehearsal dinner for Shon and Shannon's Wedding.
- I'm staying there to spend the night with the girls before the wedding, should be fun!

Saturday
- Shon and Shannon's Wedding!
I'm a bridesmaid, don't worry I'll post pictures.
Bayvin is a flower girl, omg, so cute, dont' worry I'll post pictures.
Grif is a groomsmen, dunno how he looks in a tux yet, will for surely post pictures!

So in short.
We're remodeling the kitchen, getting new flooring through the main part of the house (leaving the upstairs alone). Redoing the bathrooms. Getting new energy efficent windows. Still working on putting up the new fence. Hm, yeah, think that's it. I've been a bit busy.

My brother Jacob and his wife and kids are coming out the end of June, and then My folks and my brother Eamon are coming out mid July. And I'm hoping to have the bathrooms done by the time Jacob gets out and hopefully the windows and new flooring in before my folks get here. So then all that will be left is the kitchen. Which I'm just dying to get in, its gonna be so awesome. I just can't stand it! This is the extent of my patience, I can't believe I haven't passed out yet and had to be admitted to a hospital cause I'm going psycho having to wait for everything!!
I keep trying to tell myself its worth the wait, its worth the wait.

I've been making more of those wrap bracelets too. Made 2 for my Mom for her birthday and mother's day. Made 2 for my mother in law for Mother's day and I've myself 2! Just got more magnets to make more too, I should probably start trying to sell them on ebay!

Oh so the other thing that just blows my mind.
I had a handyman come over to give me an estimate on removing one of the windows we have in the kitchen, and walling it up. This place called the handyman connection. They give you a quote for just labor, then tell you what supplies you'll need and then you go pick them up. so JUST the labor was gonna be $1650. Its not that big of a window, bout 48"x48".

Alright, I know I haven't posted in awhile. Got lots going on. Got a line of credit to fix up the house, so we're currently in the process. We're in the planning stages unfortunately, but mostly know what we're gonna do, its just a matter of getting the time and scheduling everything at the right times. But we did get a new couch!!





Still working on everything else that we're gonna be going, bathrooms, floors, kitchen, new fence, new windows... gonna be an awesome house after that!
