Of everything and anything....

Life doesnt seem to slow down these days. We are just as busy as ever here. All have another round of colds. but these dont seem as bad as what we have had previously. I am actually posting this from the front room! Yipee! we have our office now! well sort of. still a few items in the back room that will have to wait till K gets the shelves put up. we have the rails for the shelfs up now we just have to get the wood for them. Hopefully one of these days. :)

School or should I say college is going well. I am over half way thru now. My teacher thinks I will be done by June/July. hmm I think she is a little more optomistic then I am. ach well, will see what happens. The college has actually hired me to tutor one of the other ladies in my class. They heard I was helping her and now they want to pay me to do it! Wow I was shocked when my assesor told me this last week! I am only required to do an hour a week so that is not bad.

It is nice having less dust in the house with the front room finished. We almost have the backroom done with the window seat staining etc. Dad came last week and helped K get the plastering done around the windows and then I stripped the paint off the window seat and K sanded it. (my arms are still aching at the last attempt I did on sanding) Then today I got the first two coats of stain put on it. Now we just need to do the last two and put the paper up and paint. :) then the drapes can finally go up. I will finally have proper window coverings!

I got the drapes for the bathroom hemned last week at mums. So now they can go up once we get the curtain rail bent to the right direction. Dad is going to help us when he gets back. They are visiting his sister this week.

Since Ks parents are gone this week I have changed and am going into school thurs/friday instead of tue/wed as someone needs to keep little T while I am there. :)

I will leave you with some photos of the kids on a farm with Nome over the holidays. They had such a good time. Thanks Nome for taking them. And of course T stayed here with me so we had to get a photo of him after they got home. :) He is growing up so fast! Its amazing what he is coming out with these days!

ps there are actually three posts including this one of pictures. Opps just relised some I didnt turn. arrg.
