Weekend Recap

Hello Monday!
Our weekend seemed to be too busy. Now that Monday is here, I realize how tired I am! Friday after school we cleaned the house then ran errands and did the grocery
shopping. I have been contemplating painting the basement aka "Taylor and Zach's rooms" so Taylor picked out paint colors. Saturday was spent sleeping in, laundry and I thought I would paint the stairwell and still have some time to rest. WRONG!
I am afraid of heights and most of the high painting had to be done on a ladder. I have gotten pretty good at painting and trimming since doing the mural at church. The stair well would have taken about a hour or so if I could have actually reached to the ceiling but, it took 4 hours. It is the first time it has been painted since we moved in 12 years ago. I didn't realize how badly it needed it until I was finished. At least the hard part of it is done. I'm not sure how I will break down painting the rest of the basement. The boys have a lot of posters on the walls plus Zach has a huge amount of project materials that are everywhere. I think if I do one or two walls a day or every few days it won't be feel so insurmountable.  Tay picked two colors a white and a greenish/blue.  I will post pics later. 

Then Sunday was church, lunch and then I went to a movie with Zach and Taylor.  We saw Extraordinary Measures with Harrison Ford.  We really enjoyed it!  I highly recommend it.  After the movie we enjoyed Krispy Kreme donuts, Yum!

After my date with the boys I went back to church to work until WYFO (Worship Your Face Off).

It was a busy weekend.  Normally I don't allow myself to be so busy so that I can rest.  I think this week will be somewhat quiet.  The home school convention is this weekend and I'm really looking forward to it.  It is a great time for me to be renewed and inspired in my efforts to home school the boys. 


If you have time would you say a prayer for me as I work through a situation in my life.  I can't really give any details, just that I'm conflicted in what to do or not do in a certain relationship.  I just can't get it out of my mind and feel myself going into "fix" it mode which may not be pleasing to God.  Anyway, thanks in advance! 


Enjoy your week!
