There are NO words!



They say that the American Dream begins with home ownership. Nathan and I bought our first house almost 10 years ago. Our first house we lived in for 7 years and we had NO problems. It was new when we bought it, it was 1247 sq ft. We OUTGREW our house. We found our dream house about 10 minutes away. We bought this house and we do LOVE it, but in the short amount of time that we have owned it we have:

replaced 5 windows

replaced 2 air units

had a new roof installed (insurance paid for this)

and now this kitchen situation.


My American dream would be to save some money! I love my house but wow! What a mess and to have this in the kitchen and the Laundry room-well you may as well fire me as being the cook and laundress! Perhaps a Vacation will work in well at this time-so long savings hello Hawaii!


OK that was a quick trip, I forgot, in an effort to be SuperMom-I signed the kids up for Cub Scouts. They think that in being a Cub Scout they will go on adventures and shoot stuff with a bow and arrow. Little do they know what we will really do is tie knots and sing camping songs. But that is OK, just more quality time out in public with me throwing ugly looks trying to get them to pay attention to what is happening. Yippee for us! Although I signed Nathan up to help as well seeing that he is an Eagle Scout and all.

That's exciting that you've put the boys in cub scouts. Which troop are they in?
