This week has been much less intense than last. Maybe it was that it started with Memorial Day. Bruce enjoyed the day off by installing our latest QVC find....an air conditioner for the den. He had some help from one of the handymen at church and his son. At first I was skeptical about their skills, since the words "I think we made a wrong cut" were uttered, it took two trips to a friends house to cut one of the pieces, and there were lots of groans...and they actually got the directions out and read them. BUT, after all that, they did manage to get it installed and now we are nice and cool in the den.

We spent part of our day Sunday and Monday taking care of a couple of cool boys while their parents were out of town. This was a thrill for Tucker...Savannah managed to find a way to stay away most of the time the guys were here...typical yucky boy aversion. Before 9am Monday morning we had a sink full of water balloons and it was war.
By midweek, I think the last 12 days of house overhaul hit me. I needed a V-8 or some chocolate or at the very least, a diet coke. I did manage to make an
amazing (Bruce's word)
roast in the crock-pot on Tuesday. In fact it might have secured my status as a stay at home wife/mom for the rest of my life.
In the middle of the house overhaul I ended up with a couple of piles. You know, the ones where you know you need to find a place and space for the items but your just not quite sure where that will be? Well I had been putting off doing that but finally on Thursday decided that no one was going to do it for me, so in just a matter of minutes I had those taken care of. Makes me wonder why I procrastinated so much.
So, all in all, a pretty uneventful week. Thankfully. I think my body needed it!
