Well you know how life works. One day something breaks down. Then next week it's something else that breaks down. Then a month later it might be something else. Well this is how our life has been since December. It started with the furnace needing a cleaning, then we had a gas leak that turned into the water heater needing to be fixed, then our clothes dryer needed some work, and then two weeks ago the dishwasher went out. So for a couple of days we looked, we finally decided on something, waited a week to have it delivered. Then they deliver and tell me it is too big for the spot. We send it back, go looking some more. We bought one and went to put it in and the hoses didn't fit. A day or so later it works. Yeah!!!!! No more washing dishes by hand.

We are now starting the project (for Alyson) of fixing up the bathrooms, puttying holes in walls and getting ready to paint. Yes, pretty much the whole house is getting a paint makeover. I think I am crazy but this is something we have wanted to do (for Alyson) for the four years we have lived here. I hope to accomplish it quickly.
