Messes

Things are crazy around here! We primed and painted the one room over the weekend. They are now screwing down the sheet rock for the ceramic flooring so we should be ready to put that section of the flooring in by Friday. It shouldn't take more than a day or two to install the floor and then we can move the desk into its final resting place :).

I've given up on dusting. Last week the entire house was sparkling for a total of 12 hours until they started sanding the walls. I'm just going to leave it for now as there is no point in cleaning something that is going to be messy again in 5 minutes. 

Speaking of messes. We watched a movie over the weekend called "Yours, mine and ours" with Dennis Quaid and Renee Russo. It was a real cute family movie, however it seems to have scarred my daughter. There was a scene where the kids were cleaning up the house and ended up getting into an argument which escalated into trashing the house. C was so upset. She kept saying "Mess, mess look at mess, movie" with tears in her eyes. She has brought it up twice a day since then shaking her head and using her hands and facial expressions to try to explain to me the utter madness of the situation.  It REALLY upset her. So no more movies with "messes". 

Chocolate and floors

I read a review on Ghirardelli chocolate today on a blog. NOT a good thing to read when your pregnant, especially when your planning on shopping for food later on.

Upon reaching the store I realized that they do not sell this blessed brand of chocolate! A substitute was made for a new mousse filled chocolate bar.

Oh.. My... Lord. Luscious, smooth, fluffy and unbelievably divine. Chocolate was the last thing on my mind until I read about it and now its all I can think about. Now I have to restrain myself from eating the entire bar. It has since been relocated to a very high area, out of reach. In order to retrieve it again I must get a step ladder. Hopefully that defers me and my insatiable craving although somehow I doubt it.

The floor is being ripped out today right down to the bare boards. They have to fix it all from underneath as nothing is level. Lots of creaks and cracks which have to be repaired before the tile goes down. My allergies are acting up which is odd as I am not usually prone to allergies.

A few more weeks until completion!

I'm amazed at how this little girl of mine who couldn't stay asleep naps through loud drilling, grinding and sawing. From one extreme to another!
