Tired feet

Good grief, I seem to be complaining about some ache or pain every day. Guess that's what comes with this hectic life style! Ha! We've been laboring for days, cleaning and remodeling, painting and moving furniture, and everything that goes along with that.

The girls came home from camping and were dirty and tired, but they had such fun. Nick and I stood back to back and he is now as tall as I am, maybe save a sock-thickness or so. Amazing!

Jill and I found a display shelf for her Desert Rose dinnerware at an antique shop but it was very huge. We couldn't find anyone with a strong back and a truck to deliver it, so the "new Jill" decided to just do it herself. And she did! We brought it into the house, just the two of us. It is perfect for her needs and we love it! The dishes aren't displayed in their final positions yet, but it sure works nicely for her, and was a good deal to boot.

She has taken it upon herself to learn how to do household maintenance chores and take a look at the other thing she did! She installed the powder room light, vanity, sink, and toilet all by herself! Lifted them into place and everything! No leaks, no drips...amazing. Her ma is impressed!
