On the last 4 months have been a bit overwhelming. So, I am going to touch lightly on a few key things and scrap everything else. Celebrated 23 years of being Married. Started work on removing mold from the downstairs bathroom. Which lead to finding mold in the upstairs bathroom AND the laundry room. What is to come?

the galley grapevine: House HELL!
http://galleygrapevine.blogspot.com/2013/01/house-hell.html
Wednesday, January 9, 2013. I have heard over and over that building a house is stressful. I myself can say that having our house built was a "piece of cake". It was the remodeling and selling of our old house that has been a nightmare.Here is a glimpse of how our last 10 months have been. Back in March, Gary and I decided it was probably time to start looking. To buy a different house. So, our journey began to find property. July- All permits had been approved and they broke ground on our New house.

The reason being.My silver lining (finally moving into our house). Seemed to be followed by a big huge black cloud. Black Cloud.My washing machine went out. It was an easy part to fix but there were other parts on the verge of breaking down. Rather than dump a bunch of money into something that could break tomorrow,.

Friday, March 16, 2012. As a mother of teenage boys, I have had to step in and help them. Buys gifts for friends of the opposite sex. I refuse to let my boys be bad gift givers). My first real intervention was last year. Garrison's girlfriend was graduating High School. Luckily I just happened to ask him what he planned on getting her, the answer. I think I will just give her money, that way she can buy what she wants". Grandma's give money. Boyfriends give sweet, thoughtful gifts. People I kinda like.
