project updates

Happy Tuesday!

Josh's first day of work went well. He trained with his dad so he had a pretty fun day. They always enjoy each others company no matter what they are doing. He got off around 3 and if it weren't for his errand running he would have been home by 3:30. He still got home by 5, so that was very nice. Usually I don't see him until sometime between 6 and 7. Today he is training with his dad again and should get home earlier than that. Although I'm not getting my hopes up. Things can come up to keep him from getting home early.

I got some phone calls made so I felt I accomplished some things. I still have to call G-ville Tech and see what the hold up is on my degree. We owed them money so I didn't get it right after I finished up my classes, but we paid them about a month ago and still have not heard anything about it. They said they were going to mail out  blue card when it was ready to be picked up, but so far, no blue card.

Lydia had another good night and we were in bed by 10 again. So I'm pretty sure the culprit of the screaming at night was coffee. She slept until 3:30 and then go up this morning at 7:30. I'm having it pretty easy with her compare to Delores now that we've discovered what all the screaming was about. I can't help but feel a little guilty though because she still sleeps all the time during the day. I feel like I should be stimulating her somehow, but she never seems to be awake long enough to do anything with her. I feel bad, but the poor girl hasn't even had a bath in a week because she's either asleep or I'm busy with Delores.

Well there wasn't much else to report, but I did want to give an update on all my projects.
1. breast milk supplies:  I have about 900 ounces of frozen breastmilk in my freezer and in Josh's parents' freezer now. We will be getting a deep freezer from my papa's house since no one is living in it anymore. We just have to run electricity out to our storage building.

2.  Diapers:  I am still cutting patterns. I have everything cut out for my inserts and can sew them, but I think I'll wait till everything is ready to be sewn so i don't lug out the sewing machine and then have to put it back up every so often to use the space for cutting.

3. Lydia's room:  I have one wall completely done. I fixed my color screw up with the wall painting and now it is just ready for details. I still have to get a shelf for the wall with her closet on it. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find a floating oak shelf about 36 inches long. Also I decided that since Lydia is too young to use her comforter and it is warm weather that I would hang her comforter on the wall over her changing table. I got the curtain rod to do that. I just have to sew a sleeve on the back of the comforter to slip it through. And I also have to make a slipcover for the rocking chair. Still a big work in progress but it is coming along good and it is now my favorite room in the house.

4. Weight loss:  I am stagnant as of right now. I still have about 5 or 6 pounds to loose to reach my goal weight, but I'll get there. In time.

Well I hope everyone has a good day.
