Thanks to my sister in law keeping the boys occupied, I was able to get a bundh of wall paper stripped yesterday afternoon. Then after the kids went to bed, I finished pulling ALL the wall paper down!! Now I just have to get the backing paper and glue off... not going to be quite as easy, but with a couple days of minimal interruptions, I should be able to get a ways on it. I'm excited to be able to see some progress though. Hopefully within the next month or so I'll be able to have it ready to paint. Just keep plugging away at it.
Liz also got my front yard completely raked and all the dead grass is gone and burned. It looks a ton better! She was here until 9:45 last night.... it was a really long day for her! I am so thankful that she was so willing to help. Reliable help seems harder to come by these days. :) I also got the kitchen floor mopped, so no more sticky spots and Liz folded all the laundry I had upstairs waiting to get folded. So, it was a good day! My new sewing machine also arrived in sound condition. I'm excited to get used to using it... I think I'll really enjoy adding a little extra to my creations. 110 stitch functions is awesome!!! but no, I'm not getting rid of my old machine... how else am I going to teach my daughter to sew? :) And it never is a bad idea to have a back-up.
Today is just another regular day for me... no reason to go out, and always work to do. I am hoping to at least get Pam's diaper bag all cut out, so that can get started on. Apparently her old one is falling apart, so I better get moving on that.
