Mom's Weekend only

My Vacation started 6:30pm on Thursday, when I sent off Duner and the boys to the cabin, Zeb with his double ear infection, with strick orders to STAY INSIDE AND TAKE HIS MEDICINE. I told him he needs to take it when he wakes up and before he goes to bed and once when he eats lunch. He really likes the 'pink stuff' so it should be easy for him to remember. (hopefully)
He was feeling better already, but he has been off school since Wednesday.

At the Brock and Reece's school they have had some kid that wanted off of school, last week Friday a bomb threat was found on a bathroom stall, of course they found nothing, but as a precaution we were able to let the kids stay home on Monday.
We got the e-mail on Sunday, but come Monday I had forgotten about it. The school sent home a letter saying they found the kid that did it and all was clear. After reading the letter aloud to me as I drove Reece home on Tuesday, Reece said to me "Mom, Didn't you care about me?"
ha. ha. Opps. I forgot.

So our basement has been coming along, we got the bathroom tiled this week. We now have a shower and in floor heat in the bathroom. We just need the plumber to come and install the toilet and hook up the sink, um... oh yeah, and a door. he. he.

The tile is not red at all this picture just didn't turn out that well, but this is the tile and shelves in the shower. The tile turned out really well. He did a great job.

We managed to hang up some cabinets in the game area, and do some molding, I love how the hickory cabinets have turned out.
We have the counter, we just have to cut it to fit and put it in.
I really should be painting some closet doors for Brock's Room but I am slackin' today.

I put in some extra hours this week at work, and I am tired. Not really sleepy just lazy, tired.


The girl that I am training with was unable to meet me today for our training. I was maybe 60% bummed, but then I thought about it... hey, I can sit in my new furniture, forgetting laundry, maybe sipping some sweet Door County Cherry Wine (Thanks Konny!) and pop on the fireplace.... Bummed No more! I couldn't wait to get home! I had to dig through Brock's room to find the Boy Scout jack knife, so I could get the cork out of the bottle. See, Boy Scouts saves the day again!

I even had some reading material... (a bike supply magazine I got from my parents).
Ahhh, and to think... only 12 more years til I could possibly be able to leagally kick out the kids to do this more often.
