Well -- what a week/weekend!
We got possession of our house!! I took before photos, and I will post them with the afters once we are settled. There is a loooottt of work to do. No major construction or anything, but new floors all the way through and painting the thing top to bottom. There's also new window treatments to go up, adding in new light fixtures, gutting the garden, building a new banister and perhaps a built-in closet, new water heater, fixing the fence (fixing a lot of stuff actually).. all before we move! And after we move, there's a lot to continue to do too. Appliences to buy.. bathrooms to reno.. mruahha =)
Anyway, it's pretty exciting and a totally awesome learning experience for me. I am learning how to navigate these confusing waters and am trying to be as involved as possible in the process so that I can take it on to my own house. ehehe!!
The school year has already started, but until we move (for me) I don't feel like it's REALLY going to get under way. To me, everything is up in the air until then. Once we do, though, I will be up to my eyeballs in busy bee-age. Even after we move there will be lots to do with the house (unpacking, still more renos), I also want to start going to church, school, placement, babysitting, maybe jessie's, my trainer, and a huge pressure to do well in school as I apply for midwifery this December. FINALLY AHH@!! lol can't tell you guys how psyched I am.
Most of you who know me know this but I have wanted to be a midwife for a very long time. So now it's almost within grasp and I am finally allowing myself to be excited as I should be. yay!!
Anyway, school tomorrow (yay) so I'm gonna go get ready. Hope to update more.. *wave*
