Been Busy

I've taken on a few home projects this week plus it's been super nice outside which means I don't have much time for blogging. I re-painted our bedroom from institutional sage green to a warm brownish/olive green. It made me strangley happy to paint away that green. Ryan was true to his word and did not help one bit with the painting. He did help me move some furniture and take down the blinds. Karen's family came over monday night for FHE and I could tell John was quite bored with the Samuel the Lamanite skit I produced and the kids acted. So he said he'd cut my edges for me. You know it's a bad FHE when someone would rather cut edges than continue. That got me started and I finished the next day. Yesterday I bought some of those white stackable storage cubes for Hanna's room (with cute baskets to put in them) and made her a nightstand with one and American Girl doll storage center with the other. This afternoon I decided to rearrange her room and do a deep cleaning. This kid is a collector and has some sort of fascination with ripping paper into tiny pieces. She later told me they use it as money to play store. Also I found little box filled with candy wrappers. I filled up a garbage bag with little Hanna "treasures". I put her bed against the opposite wall and moved her bookcase too. I also put a lamp on her nightstand which she thought was fabulous. So I'm feeling satisfied with my efforts this week. I'm subbing Thursday and Friday in a grade three classroom which I hope goes more smoothly than my grade one job last week which left me thinking: When did kids become so evil? I'll take some pictures when we get all our furniture put back in place.
