Day 47!

YAY! We have a playroom/back room/extra room/clean room!!!  Uncle Jeff finished the carpet tonight and James got the baseboards put in.  I got the call from work to stay home all night!!!! So, I was able to do some moving and unpacking after the girls went to bed.  It's all been in my brain for weeks, so it went together pretty quickly.  I also discovered that only 1 of 5 outlets in the room work, and it only works when the left lightswitch is on (the right switch does nothing. nada.  zilch.).  I love this place. :-)

I forgot...After their baths, the girls got to run and crawl and lay around on the new carpet. They both seemed awfully excited.  Of course, Gwyneth probably won't enjoy it as much now that it's not off-limits. 

It felt so good to get it sort of settled. James and Jeff brought down the toy box I painted and (after we pried the lid open -- I forgot to follow-up after painting it -- haha,) we filled it up. Of course, one wall of the room is sheet rock, the other bright red, but it is so nice to have that space. And especially for the other living room to not be so full of toys. 

James tore out a little of the garage ceiling today -- he's been working hard to get the shed organized with the garage stuff.  He was doing some investigating to determine a plan for replacing the "structural beam", commonly identified as a "pipe".  :-) 

I also made cookies for the first time in my oven.  Electric's definitely different, but they were plenty yummy! 

Can't believe I'm one 12-hour shift away from unemployment.  Getting awfully excited...
