The beginning of the year Jitters

The whole summer when by without even a post. I never really had much to write about. We had kinda a boring summer. We only went camping once, and I didn't even take any pictures. I am getting bad for not taking pictures! Mostly it is because I don't like my camera...whatev.

School has started up all over the city, and in many of my homeschooling friends houses! We haven't started yet, cause we are redoing the room we do school in. AND it has taken a turn for the worse....we pulled up the carpet thinking we could use the old tiles underneath, paint them and it would be fine...found out yesterday that those old tiles have asbestos in them. So we should really get rid of them or our neighbour told us what he did, which is probably what we are going to do. He poured a quick set cement over his, and it seals in the asbestos. So, just another added thing to do. It seems like it is never an easy fix when it comes to house that were build in the 50's, 60's and 70's. Ours is 1964 I think.

I have a lot to do today, and it makes me kinda feel overwhelmed and makes me wanna just sit on the couch and eat chips and watch TV. But the work will still be waiting for me when the bag is empty and there is nothing more to watch. My children are having one last stay at their grandparents place before school begins. So, I need to get to work.

My husband informed me last night that he wants to rip our fireplace out next yr and get a natural gas one put in. I'm so excited! That eye sore will be gone!! Of course I should be taking before and after pics of all this...but I don't like my camera....I should just get over it shouldn't I?!
