progress...

well,

summer is coming to an end.

i have one more week "off"

and then a new school year begins.

when i look around the house,

i definitely see progress.

i was able to get tons done

over this summer.

we have completed all of 

our big projects, other than the kitchen

remodel, and now we just have little things left to do.

i am glad that we are pretty settled though

because it will make the school year

much easier. 

i am proud to say that i have managed

to contain myself through the summer.

for the most part, i have managed to stay away

from my favorite antique stores

and treasure spots.

however,

i plan on making up for that

this week.

vera and i are heading out

on wednesday for a road trip to

participate in the longest yard sale.

i am so excited.

i am hoping to find some good stuff

for certain areas of the house that i am just

not able to complete so far.

i am excited for the school year

to begin but, as always, i am thankful

for this summer "break."

even though it wore me out

because i have been busting

my wide behind in this house,

i am glad to have been able to 

do all of the work around here

outside of the school year. 

i absolutely can not wait to 

get outta town for a few days 

and hunt for treasures.

i will be one happy lady.

enjoy the rest of your weekend folks.

have a blessed sunday.

ash...
