Will Be MIA

Just popping in here quickly to let you know that I will be once again disappearing for a bit. Got DS moved back up to college yesterday. Boy was it a hot one. The heat index was 110 and his apartment was so hot. Within 30 minutes, the three of us were soaked with sweat! Bret's uncle helped me moved him back up. Got both trucks and trailer unloaded into the apartment, then went to Wal-Mart to get a couple things for him and to look for an air conditioner because there was no way he was going to be able to sleep with the place being so hot! No ac's! Got lunch and came back to the apartment and I started unpacking the kitchen stuff. Bret and his uncle were upstairs putting his bed together and once again the sweat was running off of us. But while upstairs, they found an air conditioner in a closet, so they placed that one in Bret's window in his bedroom and got it running. Great!!! But downstairs was still cooking too. So we started making calls to see if anyone had any ac's. Sear's was the only one who had any. Remember, students are moving in this weekend on Sat. and Sun. So the ac's were flying off the shelf for students that have apartments! Wal Mart didn't even have any fans! Glad Bret at least had two of them! Go and get the ac and bring it back to the apartment and Bret and his uncle got that installed in the living room window. By then it was 3:30 pm and we really needed to hit the road for the 2 1/2 hour drive home. So glad he is close by home!!  But still a whole day just to move up and us to get back home. We got home here by 6:30 pm, we had left at 7:30 am. Bret's aunt had the pups, so she brought them over and supper. Bless her heart!!!!! She had been in the hot kitchen canning pickles all day!!! Bret's roommate is moving in today and has a training class for a campus job he will be doing. Then classes start tomorrow.

Now you are asking why I will be disappearing again?? Well let me tell you! Starting Monday, I will be clearing the walls and anything else I can clear, of the living room, dinning/kitchen and hallway/hallway closet. Bret is coming back home either Thursday night or Friday morning to start laying floors. In the mean time this week, his aunt and uncle will be here and we will pull up the carpeting and painting! Yay, new floors finally!!!! We will tackle the bedrooms at a later date, but for now I am so happy to be getting them in these other rooms. So busy, busy, busy this week and then will have to get everything put back together. Thankfully I don't have a big house. 

So I will be MIA in my commenting and know I will never catch back up so I will just pick up with my commenting once I can. Thanks for understanding and I will be back to making cards and hopefully scrapbooking layouts soon. Will see how this goes and if Bret will be willing to tackle the bedrooms next. lol Might not even do them until next summer, depending on Bret once again. I want him to focus on school, so for me the bedrooms can wait until next summer!

Thanks for always hanging in here with me these last few years. They have been a roller coaster ride for sure with emotions that go all over the place. I'm still missing Dwayne very much, but I can't change it and know he is in a much better place. Just trying to find my way without him now, which is hard but I'm getting there. I still have many moments of tears and talking to him and God...but not as much as before. I'm slowly getting there, where ever there is. 

Thanks for stopping by today and reading my ramblings. You all mean so much to me, you did before Dwayne passed and even more so now. Your comments always bring some sunshine into my world now and I so appreciate them!!! Now today will be spend cleaning the pool and hot tub and getting those up to par!

Crafty hugs,
