okay so its been a while

yep. and not much has been going on. i wish i had pictures to document everything so as to be more entertaing for anyone reading, but as soon as we needed to use the camera the battery went dead, and we can't find the charger. but here's an update, for anyone who cares to know :)

joe has had a great summer selling, but the last week and a half have been really rough for him, due to being extremely ill. we can't figure out whats wrong, and its lasted way longer than a flu bug should last..... we have tried to get him to a doctor and as always, health insurance has been a struggle. besides which we figure they wouldn't tell him much anyways. we got him in finally, and of course that was a total waste of time. hopefully he kicks this soon!

despite him being sick and afflicted, i continue to be spoiled by my wonderful hubby who suprised me with the book that i have been dying to get my hands on. i was waiting patiently to borrow it from my sister, but he bought it for me and it came yesterday! i have had to force myself to not speed through breaking dawn and savor it as long as possible, and its killing me! i have to do little things to reward myself to be able to read another chpater, like do some laundry, clean the kitchen, etc., basically all day. we'll see how long i can make it last!

other than that we have few other things going on.... we leave in three weeks- only three weeks!- and head back to provo. we're making a stop in st louis on the way back. its all i can to to keep myself from starting to pack up already. hopefully we can fit in a few more things while in the nations capital, and make use of the time we have here!

so this is something thats been happening....... i wish i could post a picture of this so you can understand, but again the whole camera thing.... we've had a problem with a leak in our bedroom ceiling. there was a leak from something up there, they thought it was the water heater, and so they 'fixed' that, said to let it dry, but then it keep dripping, kept dripping, and finally decided to actually look and see what was going on. it was the sprinkler system that was causing the leak, and because it was so bad they had to cut a ginormous hole in the ceiling, which revealed tons of moldy, nasty insulation and rotting wood. they fixed up the sprinkler stuff and took out a bunch of stuff, but they still want it to dry out before patching things up again, so we have this gross, smelly hole that i stare at every night, and it freaks me out. i have this weird 'fear' of mold, and this seriously makes me sick to look at.

speaking of being sick..... i'm down to 80 days left of this pregnancy! its been fun, but i'm totally ready to meet this little girl! and besides which, i am getting anxious to start getting the nursery and everything set up! we spend time everyday looking stuff online, taking notes of what we like, what has good reviews, and so forth. there will be plenty to do as soon as we get back!

i'm gonna go see if i can find that camera battery charger, and then maybe read another chapter.....

Definitely check out craig's list online. We've found some great stuff that is in really good shape . . .but you have to be patient to get the good stuff.
