I need more time!!

10-29-13

Well I guess I have some time this morning.

Of course, the reports didn’t run. It is not too surprising. We were due for a minor fuck up. It means delayed stress, but for now I will take it. It makes me laugh all around.

We cleared out most of the catio. The only thing in there now are the couches, which we will move today. I moved my desk inside and the night stands for the guest room into the guest room. They will have to be moved once we get carpet, but we need the stucco part of the house all clear so Jim can start the repairs.

My folks finished the boys’ room and it looks amazing. It looks like it is straight out of a magazine. I told my mom the boys might not be able to sleep in there until after my house warming party. LOL!

I have to admit, I am dangerously tempted to cancel practice tonight just so we can work through. I would leave work, but these damn reports linger. But if we didn’t have practice, I could essentially go straight to Steve and work. I painted one coat of a door frame, but I need to finish that up. Ken is working on putting in a door today along with the other bathroom. I am sore, I hurt, and even though the end is near, getting to the finish line looks daunting.

As much as I feel like I should be bummed, I am not. It looks as though it will only be us and my folks for Thanksgiving at Steve. This sounds ideal, actually. It means less stress, and more fun. My mom said we could go out, but I actually love the idea of cooking. I may need to find some gluten free goodies for my dad, too. Perhaps friends can come by in the evening or over the weekend for cocktails. That would be nice! It will be a good cozy 4 days. Plus, I can work on Christmas decorations.

With the weekend looking mostly open aside from the two games, it looks to be another busy weekend of moving things into Steve. We will take a brief break to go see Ender’s Game. It is a must! I am looking forward to it. We are in crazy movie time. I have tickets for Catching Fire on the 22^nd, too. I wonder how hard it would be to take a week off like next week to work on Steve. Probably too hard.

I need to spend some time on Eydie. It gets attention once a week. On Wednesdays I tend to do some chores. It is my only day to do so. The rest are spent at Steve or on the field. I realize I need to hit up Costco again. I would like to get something for Bobby’s class for his party. Maybe I can hit it up today? Man, I need more hours in the day.

Now that the boys have dressers in their new room, I can start going through their clothing. They have so dang many shirts, so I should go ahead and remove the ones that are just too small or not worn anymore. Then I can probably have the boys living essentially out of a box for the next couple weeks. That would allow me to get that dresser into the bedroom at Steve. I really don’t know how we are going to do it. You start to realize very quickly how small your hallway is when you are moving furniture.

Crap, I need to paint my shoes, too. LOL! Sheesh! I need more hours!!!!

I may need to suck it up and just stay up late.
