The Opportunity of a Night Time


So last night after work I decided to go home and clean up the house I haven’t been able to do that since late October and it desperately needed it. So I started with sweeping and mopping (that’s mopping x1), and I cleaned out a few cupboards as well as cleaning the bathroom and a few other nooks and crannies. Around 7:30 Josh called to say he would be eating with the guys down at the shop so I would be on my own for dinner. I finished the task at hand, cleaning out the “junk” drawer (picture featured above) and then decided it was time to eat. I opened up the fridge and OOOOOHHH CRAP!!! …CRASH, CRASH…
There went a huge bowl of split pea soup and shredded beef!
OMG, to quote Taylor "IT went EVERYWHERE"!
It was on the ceiling, it was on the living room floor in ALL of the side compartments of the fridge and is some awfully weird places. Gross green slimy… soup.

So now why I call it an OPPORTUNITY.

When we first moved in I put something in the bottom drawer of the fridge and it leaked and I haven’t been able to get the stinking drawer out to clean it. Well, last night I had no choice I HAD to take it out so I ended up completely taking apart the fridge to get the bottom drawer out but at least I finally got to clean out that bottom drawer!
All in all I ended up mopping the floor 4 times with soap and a fifth time with water. It took me over a hour and six buckets of water. I got, hopefully, all the “gooo” out of, under from, off the top of, and from in between every area around the fridge.
So that was the way I spent my night, it was clean then messy then clean again.

P.S. I regret not taking a picture of the mess. Sorry.

Since July

Hi so i feel bad about not posting for almost six months so I'm am going to play a quick game of catch up and then move on and hopefully stay more on top of things.
  • In August we bought our house!! We love it, its great and we enjoy every frustrating minute of being home owners.
  • We got our kitty and named him Tuff and sorry we didn't put him on the Christmas card.
  • Josh's business is still going well and recently he has had the time to put together his "dream truck".
  • My job is the same not much has changed.
  • Thanksgiving was spent in Lovell with Josh's family and Christmas was spent here with my family.
  • I got a new sewing machine and having that has kept me more than busy.
  • Since Christmas I have been making purses, rice bags, curtains and, mending various pairs of jeans with my sowing machine. Being on the DR walk of life really makes you get the most out of the clothing you do have.
  • And other than that we have been just happy to be recovering from Christmas.

If I have pictures I will try to get them posted! Until then I have a few specific incidents that I will be posting about! I look forward to that and to hopefully be better at posting more consistently.

New Kitty

The house. I need to take new pics though.





























ok so were did i leave off...

So whats be going on since I posted last?

We have been working on buying our house and now that's almost done we just have to sit back and wait! Our closing date is August 4th.

We are still working on our debt snow ball and we have paid off two more loans!!!!! so that adds about 500.00 to our total.

We are pausing our debt snow ball till after we buy the house (about two months) but then we will pick up right were we left off after that.

We just got our kitty today so that will be something new.

I went to three really good concerts: Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Spill Canvas, and my all time favorite MATCHBOX 20!!!!

and for right now I think that's about it.
If I think of anything else I'll try to put it in.
I'll see you later!
