longest week ever

has it really been since mid-september that i posted anything? wow, that just blows (i apologize to all of my 5 readers)…

it’s been a busy and quick few weeks, and this week was probably the worst since deck came down with a bad cold, then got an ear infection, then had a fever, and then a rash (roseola virus)… he still has rosy cheeks, but the splotches on the rest of his body have faded and his mood has improved for sure… eric and i took turns staying home from work, leaving early, and taking him to the doctor – wouldn’t be such a big deal if we didn’t both work downtown… i’m very lucky to have an understanding boss and the ability to work from home, so it wasn’t too bad (unless he was crying and needed to be held)… all i can say is i’m hoping this weekend is full of fun, love, and laughter…

on the home front – we’ll be placing the order for add’l kitchen cabinets tomorrow and they might be installed by the end of the month! yay! we had had both looked for a freestanding piece and i kept going back to the fact that having something, that goes w/the rest of the kitchen, is better in the long run… i would LOVE a cheaper option, but sometimes the best way isn’t always the least expensive… i cannot WAIT to have a pantry so i can put away my appliances and have a place to store bulk food and paper products… and having a small counter will be great when deck gets older because he’ll have a nice place to sit and do homework or keep me company while in the kitchen… i promise to take progress pics…

the rest of the weekend will consist of the usual – laundry, cleaning, and grocery shopping… my mom is coming down on sunday so i may drag her and deck along to the big thrift store so i can find some skirts for work… and some brown boots…

hope you have a nice weekend!
