A lost week?

by ⋅ 3 Comments

I can’t believe it’s been a week since I updated this blog! Well, I guess I can – I only shoot for weekly updates anyway. And, I installed a new spam catcher for the comments – so I no longer need to log in daily to delete 25 spam comments! Yeah!!

So what was new this week?

  • We decided not to proceed with home ownership – not even sure if I talked about that here – due to the high costs. Maybe in a few years – if we can save more money – we will consider it again. But the day we decided to stay put – our landlords told us they were not going to raise our rent as earlier expected until next Winter! That was a nice surprise.
  • J1 seems to be doing very well at camp. I have not heard from him – but have gotten reports twice from another mom who’s hubby is there. It’s nice to hear good things about your children – especially when you are not there. Can’t wait to see him today and hear his version of camp. Probably “It was good and bad.” Which is his reply to everything lately! LOL
  • J3’s tooth is still wiggling! No plans for extraction yet!
  • J2 had this week off – no seatwork for school – which is a break for me too. But Monday we’ll start up again. It was just the break I needed.
  • There has been knitting this week – in fact quite a bit of it since I was not feeling well earlier in the week. Knit on the Boxers, the Lace Diagonal Scarf and joined a new KAL that starts in August. Check out my knit blog “Knitnmom” for more info!

There’s also been work this week…helping my mom paint her living room….visits from my brother….and a trip to Lake Tahoe! So, it’s been busy – maybe that’s why I didn’t post! LOL

I’m not sure where it went…but it sure was busy. Here is what I remember:

  • I filed/shredded 8″ of paperwork.
  • I filled out/printed out/copied about three inches of paperwork.
  • I went to two water classes – one where I unfortunately did not wear sunblock so now I’m a slightly pink color.
  • We had two BBQs with the inlaws. One on the Fourth – Eric’s sister’s and kids came too. Then we headed to the local High School and celebrated with other town folk…here are some pics from that:

  • I finished some socks and cast on tons of other projects! lol
  • I attended my weekly Knit Night – here some pics from that one. You never know what you might be asked to model! 😉

  • Attended a preliminary meeting to learn more about buying a home. Not sure what will happen – but definitely feel it can’t hurt to find out if we can afford anything. Scary though!!
