I seriously can’t think of anything to write about. Stuff is happening, but nothing very exciting. We’re trying to get some of our stuff together to sell, because we’re feeling a desperate need to simplify our lives. I’m fighting the desire to simplify things by simply putting all our crap out on the curb with a big sign that says “Free”, since it wouldn’t hurt to earn a little extra money.
Money I can then spend on redecorating! I’ve framed a few pictures and picked out paint colors for the bedroom and bathrooms, so now I have to actually buy the paint, do the painting, and hang the pictures. Those are the only rooms we haven’t repainted since moving in, and they all really need it. Even Chris agrees, albeit grudgingly. (I was telling him that it was a Catch-22 because I didn’t have time to repaint while working full-time, but couldn’t afford to repaint working 80% time – he informed me that two reasons not to do something wasn’t a Catch-22.)
What else? We’re hard at work on our latest money-making scheme, to be launched August 1. It’s been half-done for a while now. We never follow through.
Cadie’s crawling and trying to stand up. We let her cry a bit at night for a couple days, and now she keeps herself entertained if she’s not sleepy. We put her to bed and listen to her practice “talking” while we eat dinner. She’s the best.
This is only a 2.5 day work week for me, but it’s dragging on and on and on… Thank goodness for bagel day.
