The house is finally 'put back together'. We've finished the floor and moved the furniture back. And we've even sifted through all our stuff before putting any of it back. We got rid of a number of books (very hard to do...but keeping every book bought when the girls were 9, 10 and 11 just isn't practical), some old VHS tapes, lots of magazines and just some junk. The living/family room looks great. It took longer than I had expected (and I thought I was giving ample time to complete the job). So I am soo over the whole job. We still need to get a throw rug for the middle of the floor, but other than that we should be good. We have our kitchen back and actually sat down, all 4 of us, for dinner together. With the Singer and Imp taking a Bible Study on a different night than Hubby and I, and with ballroom dancing classes and the Singer working out two days a week on her way home from work (putting her home around 8) we haven't had a many family dinners as I would have liked. But we sat around the table and enjoyed good spaghetti and fresh green beans (alas, not from my garden). Yep, the house and home are finally back together.
I get to scrap again today. Always a good day. I'm a little tired, which sometimes makes it harder to be creative, but friends are coming over so all is good.
Yesterday I got to teach my crochet summer class. I had 5 little girls (ages 10-15) and I thoroughly enjoyed, not only teaching crochet to others, but just the girls themselves. They're just a fun group and they all friends with each other which just made for a fun atmosphere.
