The hole is getting bigger!!
Even Taniyah admires her handiwork...
By the time the weekend was over - both of those smelly walls were gone, vanished, the oh so nsaty ceilings were scraped and massive amounts of just plain YUK were in the rolloff...Then we waited, and waited.
Over Labor Day weekend - or at least on both sides of it - Quality installed our new heat pump system. It took them less than a week to install all the ductwork and the system... :) We had a configuration issue that DID hold us up some a while later - but Quality did come back and make it right - then, we waited, and we waited, and we waited...
And did I forget to mention... while we waited for our absentee contractor, we were busy. On that 1zt Saturday - I up and decided to spend some quality time with the youngest 3. I have never gotten to spend much time with them, we had moved away from San Diego before Tetee was born. We visited often, but...
Went from a death grip to a... well maybe... :)
A bit of break time...
And then it happened.... yes, oh, yes.... I fell... and I broke it! Imagine my embarrassment when I had to call Rod and S'te and tell them that I needed for them to come help me... because I fell and I was pretty sure I'd broke my arm... I for sure saw stars!!!! There was absolutely no doubt about that!!!
So needless to say that all the hard work that I had planned to do . . . didn't get done! It (the bone) just would NOT stay put. After 5 weeks of a most fantastic orthopedic surgeon trying to avoid surgery. . . Dr. Brown finally gave up and 'pinned' the break. She really tried to avoid it! So I then had little blue balls sticking out of my arm for another 5 weeks before she relented again and took 2 of them out - with the proviso that I keep my arm wrapped and was very, very careful with it. And a week later she took the other 2 out - gave me a brace and made me promise to wear it until my followup. Since we had to go back to Coos Bay and get the move packed up and house cleaned for the renters. . . she relented... and to Coos Bay we headed. We had confirmed with Easton Construction (our contractor for this project) that we would be returning on November 8 (I remember it because it is April's birthday) and he said the house would be move in ready... So we headed out... and the story will continue :)
Always remember:
To forgive is divine;
but also remember to never
forget the lesson learned :)
