After my vent yesterday, I thought I would keep it a little more low key today! My weekend was filled with much more than Tanners visiting friend. I have been cleaning and tossing non stop since last Friday. We have been trying to get the house ready to sell. We do have a young couple interested in buying it, so I am going to keep my fingers crossed. They have been over a couple of different times to look at it, and the gal's mother came yesterday. Hopefully mom liked it, because she is going to co-sign. If we don't hear anything promising by the end of the week, beginning of next week, then we are going to have to list it. We need to sell it fast! We do have something up our sleeves, but I will not elaborate any further until everything is official. I am going to keep you all in suspense. ;o)
My Mother-n-law was kind enough to come over on Monday and help me do some cleaning. I was grateful and I think Colter probably was too. I could tell that he was going through mommy snuggle withdrawals. Monday night he was so tired, but would not go to sleep. He is so easy to get to sleep normally. I finally brought him into the bedroom with me and let him lay with me for about a half an hour. I guess that is all he wanted, because fussy britch immediately turned into happy talk, smack mom and pull her nose boy. I finally decided to lay him back in his crib, and he went right to sleep. I felt horrible for not giving him as much snuggle time as usual, but also great when he confirmed just how much he loves and needs me.
Al has also been super busy trying to fix on the house, and finish a couple of small unfinished projects. He also has a project in the garage that needs to be done before we sell. Yesterday when I got home from work, he was hammering and nailing away. It was not the best sleep I have ever received, but I am getting used to that. That is a good thing, because I am sure there is much more of that to come. I told Al not to worry to much about the house, I will do my best to get it in order. I really hope he does not burn himself out. I reminded him again, that he needs to "just say no" to people, and worry about himself for a little while. I really do kind of like him, and I would like him to stick around a little longer. :o)
Tanner has been busy too, but not like us. He has been busy trying to be invisible so that we don't make him busy. He is like a magician. If the words clean or help are uttered, he does a great disappearing act. Typical 11 year old. I was never that way, right mom?! ;o)
Keep your fingers crossed for us. If you don't, you will never find out the secret. I hope ya'll have a super fabulous Wednesday!!!
