Stress just gives and gives until you can’t take it anymore.

Right now, the stress from the renovation has left me with me with a nasty head cold.

Meanwhile, for those keeping track, here is where we are on the list of renovation doom:

  1. Replacing electrical wring in house. Going from aluminum to copper.
  2. Reroof
  3. New garage door with automajic opening one. (Yea a use for those buttons in my car!)
  4. Replace attic insulation
  5. Adding gutters
  6. Help sick tree in front yard
  7. Dry wall family room, taking down dark 70s paneling
  8. Replace wall trim throughout the house
  9. Paint.Every.Single.Room.
  10. Fix outside front yard light.
  11. Replace the windows.
  12. Resod the yard.
  13. Put a shed in the backyard so we can reclaim the garage to use as a.. um.. garage.
  14. Make the driveway bigger.

Now this does not include the new, two sublists of doom. Hubby has one that’s just really depressing. But he built me over the weekend — laundry shelves!

Okay, I know you’re thinking how June Clever it is for me to be excited about laundry shelves, but when you have to keep all your laundry supplies on the floor, laundry day can be a bake breaker. This way, all my Shout, Time, Bounce and Clorox (yes I am a laundry-brand whore) are right with reach!

Thank you honey — SMOOCH!
