As I sit here writing this post, I am reminding myself to try to maintain an attitude of gratitude. The guys are working on finishing up the ceiling and wall repairs, and we have insurance, so yay for all that.
Still, I am so, so tired of having our living room torn apart! We are working on a month-and-a-half since we discovered the leak, and I am very irritated about the lousy feng shui going on around here. For those of you who know me know that I always keep the living room picked up and looking nice. Other rooms suffer, but not it, usually. This is what or living room and dining room are supposed to look like:

I forgot to take a picture for this post, but our guest room is filled from floor to ceiling with chairs, end tables, wall hangings and the like.
So, what's a girl to do? In just a couple of days, we should be able to put the furniture back into place. Shanna (my sweet step-daughter) has offered to come from Washington to help me paint. She and Cheri will pick the colors. Yay, no more white! I figure if I want our house to look anything like theirs, then I need to let them choose for me, because they are the pros.
It has been a very busy and expensive couple of months around here, to say the least. Now I may have to get a job, since business has slowed down so much at our company. Also, I need to do the following: a) set up an Etsy shop, b) figure out how to sell my stuff, c) get into posting my stuff on Pinterst, d) reorganize the sewing and writing areas around here so like things are alike and e) start transferring my articles into books and onto my other blogs. What a deal! I hope that my energy will return.
Any suggestions or tips on those there things listed from a-e?
Thanks, you guys, I really do appreciate all of my readers. Hope that your week is going awesome!
