Dried Out

The basement is finally dry...yippee! I still need to clean the carpeting though, so I've set my folks up in Steve's office for a couple of nights, and then we can move them across the hall into the guest room. We'll head out sometime mid-afternoon to pick Steve up from drill, and then head to the airport to get Mum and Dad - - I can't wait! I can't believe it has been nearly a year since I've seen them. Too long.

So, it has been a busy week here, between the basement clean-up and the general house clean up, and two boys who have been in rare form this week. I have a bad case of kid burn-out, I must admit. You know I love my boys more than life itself, but sometimes I can only talk about matchbox cars, The Lion King, and monster trucks for so long. I have found myself on more than one occasion this week, longing for an iced coffee and complete silence, if only for 30 minutes. That being said, there sure are worse problems to have, aren't there? Nothing that some quality time with my parents, as well as two extra sets of hands to help me with the boys won't cure!
