Sounds like most of you were busy with one thing or another and others got a chance to relax.

Friday evening we loaded everything up in the van and truck that we would need at the rental house on Saturday. Then of course on Saturday we worked on the house. Rick hung a couple new doors on the bedrooms, painted some closet doors and a few other things. Ricky trimmed branches off the tree that were getting close to the house, mowed the yard and used the weed eater. I...well...I cleaned the basement. It was a horrible dirty mess with cob webs everywhere. They sure didn't leave it in very good shape. I also trimmed all the bushes around the house and raked it all up.

Sunday we went back to the house. Rick worked upstairs and Ricky and I painted the basement with this stuff called Kilz. We almost had a complete coat on when we ended up getting higher than a kite from the fumes and had to go outside into the fresh air. Rick ended up finishing what little was left. Ricky also was moving some cement blocks that they had in the basement for some reason and ended up hitting his head. It bled a bit and he ended up with a pretty nice goose egg. He was okay, but neither one of us were worth a hoot so we came home. Rick stayed and finished up some odds and ends.

We were going to go back on Monday, but I was still so sore and not in the mood so Rick went in alone. He mostly just loaded what we had left there and brought it all home. He did meet with a realtor to get his thoughts on what we should do. He's a good friend and know the business well. Now we just have to weigh our options and do what feels right for us.

Today.....back to hauling the "little darlings" around. Then took Mom to Wal Mart and did some other errands with her. Now...here I am on the computer waiting to go back and pick up the kids. I'm so glad this is Tuesday and will be a short week till the weekend....lol.
