On one hand I am excited to pieces and on the other hand, I'm LOOPY! My house has been TURNED UPSIDE DOWN and INSIDE OUT! We started tearing apart our den this afternoon! I even skipped church so that I could start putting up all my collectibles and moving things to both spare bedrooms. When Terry got home from church, we moved furniture that we could move without help. Then we had the BIG STUFF still to move! SUCH AS: Dining room table/chairs; couches; my grandfather clock; my buffets; our HUGE armoire that housed our T.V. ; tables; lamps, etc. etc etc!!! We called in some troops to help: Brad/Michael and Jon get extra Christmas goodies as they helped soooooooo much!!!! We only had one slight accident---one of the huge weights fell off in the grandfather clock (that Katie had just gotten to work again!) and it smashed into the bottom of the clock! Brad said it can be fixed! Jon did good today, he left with the big screen T.V.!! We are getting one to put on the wall and since we moved the armoire into our bedroom, we put our other one in there! (it looks GREAT!!!).Jon was beside himself! He got his room-mate, David, to come and help him load it up and take it back to Auburn. I told him that he had to MARRY Katie or I would come and get it! HAHA!....Brad got the couch that was in our room (Hurrah!) and poor Michael left with only some bruises and a sore back! HAHA! My house is a TOTAL and COMPLETE wreck! They will start pulling up the floor tomorrow and hopefully, by wed/thurs. we'll have our new Mexican Tile floor!!! I can't wait! After the floor gets down, we're PAINTING. And after painting, we are getting our new couches! FINALLY We have a NEW COUCHES coming BEFORE Christmas that we got at Leather Creations (I ADORE that place!). Actually, it probably won't be here till the week of Christmas (fingers crossed!) b/c it has to be made. They custom make all of them. It's soooooooooo pretty and incredibly COMFORTABLE! We looked everywhere but after we sat down on that one, it was ALL OVER! We looked at each other and said, "THIS IS IT!" We tried to get the connected one that wraps around the room, but we had to get separate ones b/c of the fireplace. They are so cool, tho! And we got some ottomans to match and when you put them up to the couches they make chaise lounges! AWESOME! OOOOOOOOOH! Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT, for now, I must endure lots of DUST and NOISE (as they have to dig up the floor) , only watch T.V. in ourbedroom (b/c JON got our old one!) and move around my house like a snake! I'm taking Lily to the mall tomorrow and to HER house since she can't get in all this mess! We can't even get to the kids toys!!!!......WHAT A MESS! But, how EXCITING when it all gets FINISHED! IF I can stand the craziness around here until it all gets done! HAHA!
